My Stash just grew again 2010

I got two 1/700 Hasegawa harbor sets, mainly for the crane. I also got a 1:1 scale working model of Newton's first reflecting telescope. It took about 1 hr to put together and it works!

Except that I already have an 8" Celestron and a 90mm Meade telescope!

Tamiya M106A1 mortar carrier - sold by Transport Models in Preston so had to force m'self to go up there to collect it 

Resin Agave radar nose conversion for the 1:48 Airfix Jag

Hasegawa 1/48 IDF A-4E/H

And on the non-modelling related hobby front....a guy at work has got me back into target shooting after a long break...I never shot a whole lot, but I do enjoy it when I get around to it, so today I stopped in the friendly local gun shop and walked out with a Walther P99QA in 9mm....I would have preferred .40cal, but it was on special and I got a great price.  Watch out paper circles!

I nearly asked you what the tray of gold liquid in the bottom of the case was for, until I realised it was the table top showing through the handle cut-out....

From Roger-the-Cabin-Boy:

Whirlykits 1/72nd Miles M.100 Student in resin. Lovely little plane: cute as a button....

Kit is scary and impressive in equal measure to someone who's never done more resin than tidbits before... The fuselage is in one piece with the cockpit interior built onto a floor "hatch" which is fitted after painting the fuselage. Now that looks very Gerry Anderson: you could imagine the whole floor, with a sofa instead of seats and a glamourous female pilot, elevating from some 60's lounge straight up into the plane. Replace the jet with a turboshaft, fit tilting props at the wingtips....

...nah, only kidding Phil. Any whiffery will be confined to extending the armed COIN tests.

Thanks again!

From Telford (no, I wasn't there personally, but my friend Steve Gardner was though and he got me these)

Two Airfix Harrier TAV-8B/T.10's, one will be OOB and the other completely influenced by a recent posting by Spinners (bottom pic).

And a Whirlybird catalogue, which I notice has a new contact address now.

Tomytec 1/144 JASDF F-15 weapons set - including AAM-5s and these new UAVs that look little fighter planes themselves.

Really wish Tomytec would release their 1/144 F-15s as unpainted kits (and at cheaper prices  ). Shapewise, they look so much nicer than all the other Eagles in the scale.

If someone bothers to listen, we could really use newly-tooled kits of the F-15 and F-16 in 1/144!  Come on, Revell, how about it? We already have very nice Tomcats and Hornets, how about the rest of the teen fighters?

[Army of One]

The box from TAHS contained 1xAcad 1/144 Su25 n Su22....3xRevell Ka50 Hokums...an italeri 1/72 Mangusta and a 1/144 Mig 31....can't remember who by but it's very basic.....

Maybe you should ask them to put them in a plain brown package  I'll be in touch latter in the week about your Telford kits - which will be suitably wraped
