Which reminds me I have an Italeri Z in The Loft, but what could you Whiff that into, it already is one!?

I know, cut it in half and make two twin engine bombers. No, that's just TOO silly...... ;D

Simply remove one fuselage and make a four or five engined asymmetric bomber by keeping the wing next to the fuselage normal  ;D

It's the "easy" way to make a single-fuselage, 4-engined He 111. Cut the central engine and wing in half vertically, join with an (half) "external" engine and wing et voilà (more or less  ;D )

Speaking of He111s, this fellow obviously believes he has to make a quick profit before the release of the new Airfix He111p kit next year - http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Heinkel-He111P-Hasegawa-1-72-Hasegawa-E-E22-/251761494078?pt=AU_Toys_Hobbies_Model_Kits&hash=item3a9e27883e   :o

I'm so glad he's being generous and offering free postage.

TBH, I don't blamr them.  Not everyone knows about Airfix bringing out a new He 111 plus there's still a stigma attached to the name Airfix amongst some of the more snobbish - some comments on Britmodeller said that it won't be as good as the Hasegawa one (which is bollards as I've got a Hasegawa one and it isn't as good as the Airfix kit) - and they'd just choose Hasegawa.

As for the Shack.  Well, if anyone is desperate enough to do an MR2 quickly, then you pays yer money, etc.  However, said kit/conversion would just go straight in the stash nd probably never come out - mine is still there after about ten years, although I was thinking of a late MR2 in flight with an MR3 canopy.

And I just turned my Victor into a slot car too.   ;D :lol

£450 is just RIDICULOUS though, I sold a Jaguar 420 for £65 and a Beach Buggy for £80+, both by auction, about 6 months ago and they were about par for the course then. He's living in cloud cuckoo land.
