Ok I know that the latest release of Hasegawa EggPlanes are fairly readily available so I was thinking Why not WHIFF them?? With 12 kits available 6 modern F-14,F-16,F-18,F-15,F-4 Phantom & Space Shuttle.And 6 WWII Aircraft Corsair,Mustang,Warhawk,Thunderbolt,Fw-190 & Zero. I myself have an entire set,so I was thinking this could be a fun build.You could use one of these kits (I believe there are others out there) or scratch,Bash and build your own I see no limitations except that the model Must follow the Egg theme

I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

Me too, already got the F-16  ;D

The Caproni Stipa shown below was a REAL aircraft, a flying ducted fan.

Maybe make one with a popular beer label on the "can"!

I'd be interested, but I'd probably want to get another kit - i have one, but I wish to eggsperience it in stock form first...

I wonder if any of the IJN float planes are available as eggs?
There are no good kits, bad kits or grail kits, just kitbash fodder.

There's a Zero, so you should be able to bash a Rufe out of it.

Or a Saab Tunnan.... :lol: :lol: :lol:
Borrowed from this site, a couple of nice real world Tunnans on there too: http://hem.passagen.se/burrabee/72scale/mili.html

I *LIKE* that flying barrel!

In the other pics of the Tunnan you had a "U.N." plane in an unusual camo that I also liked very much. Did you "invent" that camo, or was it a documented real style?

Oh, they're not mine, the only Tunnan I've tried to build ended in disaster recently! :rolleyes: :banghead: :lol:

The UN aircraft is real world, Sweden deployed Tunnans during the Congan Crisis as part of the ONCU peacekeeping force.  Some of the Tunnans received that funky camo.  It's basically the standard Tunnan camouflage extended to wraparound with the yellow lines either following the demarcations or randomly placed depending on the aircraft.

The Swedish contingent was eight J-29Bs in natural metal and two S-29Cs ( the recon version) in that camoflage.
The Heller kit is good for this as it both the fighter and the recon noses.

Just by chance, that happens to be the one I own! It was a choice between a zero and an FW-190, and I went the Zero. Obviously I was chaneling seaplane conversions that day  :mellow:
