Sword Models

SIX 1/72nd Reggiane WWII fighters in one box for £50.00:

Why?

They might sell some like that to SIG Italia, but who else would buy six in one go?

*Raises hand*  I happen to have a fondness for a number of Italian WW II fighters.  Besides, this looks to have some interesting variations.

I did look at that boxing Evan, but resisted, and I am a member of SIG Italia

Well, I probably could have, but decided that it seemed worth it.  Different tastes and all that...

I do have a few individual boxing's of the various Regiane types though

If I can find some more LF Models (IIRC) Caproni-Vizzola F.6Z kits, I might be interested in getting some Re.2005 kits to combine with in making some Re.2004 models.

[NARSES2]

Yup the Re.2004 is an interesting looking aircraft, certainly looks as if the people designing the front and rear ends were working in a slightly different scale 

I'm not aware of the F.6Z kit I must admit but it's a slightly odd looking aircraft to my mind. I've a fair few LF Models Italian types in the stash but seem to have missed that one.

If you like Seafires then this might be just what you need

I find that set remarkably attractive, no idea why, I just do.

That seems to be a good deal too, GBP40 for five kits. And that has the VAT added to the price too so I would get it 20% cheaper.  I'll see what the LMS's around here have it for.

[Captain Canada]

Nice ! That would be a sweet sat on a shelf together.

[The Wooksta!]

Although I have multiples of the Sword Seafires (esp. the second boxing of the Seafire III with the D-Day markings: I think I have 9 - oh, come on!  It has a spare fuselage AND a C wing!)  I have one of these one order for completist reasons...

[NARSES2]

Must admit I am severely tempted. As Robert says, it does look exceptional value for money 

[NARSES2]

I did succumb in the end and ordered the Seafire set, got an e-mail from Hannants telling me it's in. So should receive it after Christmas ?

[The Wooksta!]

I've got one on order with Uncle Frank for completist reasons...

Arrived this morning. Very happy with it
