From Ebay and a punt at £13 + postage...

An Airfix Nimrod.  One for the stash I'm afraid no idea what to build Real World, what-if or WTF but at that price just had to have it.

from Ebay. One Williams Brothers 1/72nd Martin B-10B.
You should have said you were after one - saw a bagged one in the kit swap last week!

I wasnt really looking for one Lee. Very much an impulse buy.

And now to add another ebay win
One Italeri DC-130A Drone Director. the one with four Firebee's :)

I always hope for the best.
Unfortunately,
experience has taught me to expect the worst.

Might I offer the services of my uncle, who is a man of the cloth, to marry your parents!  :rolleyes:

No, I was not even aware of it.

Just opened the bag that I use to carry my models to shows and found a couple more kits in there, obviously these were last minute grabs from Telford!

Heller De Havilland FB.5 Vampire. I have a germ of an idea for this involving a Jowett Javelin and a wooden wonder. Or there's the alt-Flitzer idea.

Hasegawa Mitsubishi F-1 fighter, no decals. This is the Jaguar lookalike that just might appear in the alt-Cosford show next year...

Kingfisher Miniatures - UN Markings decal sheet. Intended for vehicles of varying sizes but will work on aircraft.

I might just be looking into resin Firebee production.

Oh goody!  ;D :thumbsup:

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

That's one beautiful kit.  :thumbsup:

Having flown one I'm building mine RW of course, but the mouldings are superb, almost fit without glue!

Free from my boss Gary at Models4hobby;-
A Revell Star Trek U.S.S. Voyerger , damaged box.
1/72 Revell/Matchbox Sherman Firefly, part missing
Revell X-Ray Tarantula Spider, part missing.
I haven't got a clue what to do with the last two but I'm sure something will come to mind.
