Do you dress up as a small child to go in there?  ;D (Just tell me, DON'T post a photo... :o)

The scantily clad vixens that beckon the unsuspecting worker into Holborn Modelzone sang their siren song an lo! an Airfix Canadair Sabre fresh out of its carton was exchanged for some of the folding stuff!

Today from the site of all evil ;D
Two Fujimi Kaman seasprites, one is the SH-2F the other the YSH-2e LAMPS Mk2. Both in 1/72nd scale. Got them both for a tenner with free postage. :thumbsup:
Both I think will be Honduras navy, but not used to hunt submarines. Unless I get an old WW2 sub for the Cartels to use for smuggling :wacko:
Cheers,
Chris.

A couple of SF kits from Starship Modeler - the 1/350 "Mercury 9" from Pegasus Hobbies and two resin or hard vinyl 1/35 Melusine figures from the MaK series. They will get redone.

Kinetic Hawkeye.   Hadn't expected to see it quite that size.

Oooh, what's the Sea Hawk like?
And actually the scantily clad vixens work in the gent's hairdrassers on the corner.
And they're usually well covered up.
But not too much.
Sorry.

One Fujimi Lockheed F-35B arrived today direct from the Land of the Rising Sun.
I always hope for the best.
Unfortunately,
experience has taught me to expect the worst.

Size (of the stash) matters.

I know that hairdressers  :wub:

As for the Seahawk. Once you get past the rather "austere" boxing (it's recycled card and has a rather cheap feel about it) then the kit it'self looks very nice. Looks as though they've scaled down the 48th kit as it appears to build the same.
3 options, 2 FAA (inc 1 Suez), 1 Indian. Has drop tanks and rockets although it has to be said the rockets are each 2 part which look odd on the sprue but probably build ok.

All in all it's a nice package and far superior to the MPM kit

2 x Revell 1/48th Starfighters. The re-release is in dire yellow plastic, but has a stunning decal sheet with all the tiger stripes for the sadly only one Belgian option. One of mine will most likely be RAF or Irish, the other will be for a Science Fiction idea.

2 x 1/72nd F-14 Tomcats...one to be USAF, the other....well, no idea really. The decals sheet has one option and I'll basically use just the stencilling.

Terry is it a re-box of the Hasegawa kit or the aged Monogram one ?? Enquiring minds need to know.
