Bugger - missed you. I was there from about 11.30 to 1.30, then I went out for a bit, then I came back about 2.30 - 3.30.

[Radish]

From Bolton Show...
Airfix 1/72nd Grumman Duck

[McColm]

There are a few people selling their stash on ebay. Once again out bid by a pound on the 1/72 AMT RC-135V. Looks like I'll have to build this from scratch.

[Thorvic]

From our Bolton show, managed to sell a few, and buy a few so worked out OK, and i managed to resist getting another A-400M after seeing a completed one by one of my club mates, wonderful build but did bring home the reality of the size of it !!!!.

Anyway back on topic my purchases were :-

Model Alliance 1/72 TSR2 Decal Sheet  (Excellent in service schemes with the RAF)
Academy 1/72 F-18A Hornet (RAAF/CAF/Spanish version) to be RAN
Hasegawa 1/72 Grumman OV-1A Mohawks x 2 (Was after these and chuffed to find them in that stash clearance  )
Model Alliance profile book on HMS Ark Royal which goes rather well with the decal sheet for i picked up last year or so.

Also managed to get some bits & peices for Overkiller who was unable to attend due to unxepected work commitments

[Martin H]

My turn for the Bolton show additions.

All bar the last entry are 1/72nd

From Thorvic
Airfix Avro Lancaster B I Special.
Revell Dassault Mirage IIIE/R.

From the same guy that Falcon "Strip mined"
Airfix F-86 D Sabre dog.
Airfix P-80A (x2)
Airfix HS-125 Dominie T-1.
Airfix OV-10A Bronco.
Airfix westland Whirlwind HAS 22.
Airfix AC-47 Spooky.
And all for the grand sum of £17. I hate to think how much I would have had to pay out on Ebay for the same.

From an under table sale (A580 Modelers).
Amtech EC-135N/E ARIA "Snoopy"
A steal at £26.

And from Chrisnord.
Corgi die cast Klingon Bird of prey.
That will be heading off to my nepthew in due course.

Now me for Bolton IPMS buys - three guesses....

From Thorvic: Airfix Fiat G-91Y. He lived up to his EKFG name here, since I've been looking fruitlessly for one for weeks (where have they all gone? ) and it was the first thing I saw in his sale box....

From the same Airfix guy that was being locust-swarmed by everybody else (all 1/72nd):

Magister (to eventually produce a second, in-flight, swept-wing one since my first is yellowing... )
F-86D Sabre (more fodder for PW Avro Archers if I ever get around to them)
P-80 Shooting Star (how can you not? )
F4D-1 Skyray (ditto - been resisting overpriced ones for ages)
P-61 Black Widow contents still sealed (for £4!!!!) (Various ground-attacker ideas)
F2-H Banshee contents still sealed (for £4!!!!) (Various possible wing+engine swaps)

Plus loads of tools, consumables and various bottles of jallop....

Oh and Chris just reminded me: 2 x Wee Friends Browning 0.50" cals with barrel jackets on pintle mounts

[chrisonord]

I managed to do a bit of ransacking of the guy with the old airfix stuff too,
Airfix 1/72nd scale Meteor Mk 3 don't care how good or bad it is as it will be donating its wings to something else
Matchbox Skyknight, scruffy box for 3 quid
Nu bee L200 Turbolet, for parts
NuBee TU 20 box scale, but still pretty big, also for parts
Airfix Britten Islander, not complete so parts donor.
airfix Cessna OV-2, complete for much cheapness
Revel Fiat G91 for much cheapness
Revell 1/72nd scale TU 22 Blinder for gratis, which is nice.
A load of resin turbo prop engines,as fitted to the Japanese turbo prop P2, many thanks to Martin H for those beauties.
also some Vallejo paints, plastic weld and some knives and dental tools.
amost forgot, 2x wee models Saracen suspensionsets with wheels in white metal, for a future SHADO  build.
Chris

[McColm]

Three more 1/72 Lockheed Constellations in various states for scrap from ebay. I might be able to use the decals from my Airfix C-130K -'Royal Air Force Air Support Command', for a passenger/cargo build.

[The Wooksta!]

From ebay:

M&E Spitfire Tr.9. 

Very rough limited run conversion from the late 80s.  Buildable.  Makes the Brigade one look like Tamiya by comparison...

[NARSES2]

From the MZ sale. Dragon 1/72 Meteor F.3

Means I've got both the F.1 and F.3 in the MZ sale over the last couple of weeks for less then the RRP of one kit 

[The Wooksta!]

No F3s in the Newcastle branch - just come from there!

And I acquired:
2 Revell Walruses.

Plus a die cast Aston Martin DB9.  24th scale so it goes nicely with all my other car kits.  Not too keen on the colour, but for a tenner it was worth it.  The wheels look a bit naff, so may get some aftermarket for the Tamiya Aston Martin DBS kit, use them on the the Tamiya one and keep the Tamiya wheels for the die cast.

[Army of One]

There are some cheap meteors in the MZ at Crawley if ya need any picked up an sent....

From Ian the Huntergatherer....an aid package contains a 1/72 Pucara,CH53 and a 1/48 A37 Dragonfly.....much cheapness methinks as well....many thanks....H

[Aircav]

From Chestermoor, a Dornier Do-28 and a Do-228, both 1/72 Revell.
