1/48 Sea Fury is a must buy! :wub:


I'd also really appreciate a 1/48 MB-5 & CA-15, while they're at it! ;D

I'm with you on that  :thumbsup:

Although I do have the Hobbycraft Sea Fury (plus a gazillion aftermarket bits) and the Silver Cloud MB5 already

Oooh nice.
Needs more SNEBs but that can easilly be solved.
I might even buy one.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

I was talking to someone yesterday who had heard rumours that the announcement would be 60's/70's Royal Navy and concluded it was a Bucc.  Not on my shoping list, but nice to see.
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.

The Llithograph prototype on show at SMW actually has the triple RAF SNEB pods on one pylon, where as the FG1 CAD has the Naval 3 row pods, so a couple of kits couid probably give a SNEB loaded version and an AD version.

Personally I would like to see the lepus flares and the 500lb bombs the RN used to give it its full Naval load options. but as its an FG1, with folded wings, a folding nose, cone, intakes, spey engine fronts, dropped slats and flaps its pretty damn good to do a RN example from hanger, deck lift, ready 1 to launch  :thumbsup:

A bit more than I would like to pay but considering all the details in the kit I will buy a couple.

Has anyone done an FG.1 with an F-4E nose? Interesting to see that.

I understand that is the plan in due course
I always hope for the best.
Unfortunately,
experience has taught me to expect the worst.
