My stash just grew again (2013)

[NARSES2]

That's awesome !

It is isn't it Capt' and so evocative of the time 

[NARSES2]

just ordered my last stash additions for 2013.

Airfix 1/72 Hawker Hurricane Mk.I (Early)

[Chris Payne]

Managed to pick up a HobbyBoss 1/48 YF-23 today.

The Mark IX carried 50 troops, but as I recall it was so fume filled that even a reasonably determined pack of Brownies could have bested them for up to an hour after they disembarked

(My little sister took Brownies for 25 years, and I know first hand the chaos they can create)

A dio of the troops reeling out of the tank might be entertaining---------with or without the Brownies.

Bit of a pig to handle as well by all accounts, and that's by early tank standards.  The troops would rattle around inside which wouldn't help either.  IIRC it was largely given over to the supply role due to these problems.

Not technically my stash.........but my son Max turned 5 yesterday (13th) and had his party today......he got an Airfix quick build spitfire (1/48 scale.....?) Which he absolutely loved.....but it was missing the two wheels....but the best was to come.....he got the Airfix VC aircraft set.....I've always wanted a Hampden.......Max says I can have that one but I gotta build the others for him.....he a good boy...and SWMBO'd got him a starter set, Airfix Spitfire mk1a......

[deathjester]

Awesome!  I hope he had a great day

Good news on the Hampden - I was just tracking one down for you, as it happens!  Do you have any spare wheels for that Spit BTW?

[Army of One]

He did thanks.....the wheels aren't the same as kit ones.....I'll be sending an email to Airfix shortly....got a few more ordered....the Me 109 and the Typhoon.....

Ah I see the plan now. SWMBO says "your stash is to big" so the lad gets them 

Wish Max a happy belated birthday for me.

An Airfix A-1 Skyraider as a donation kit for a kitbashing idea/project - came cheap, just EUR 3,-.

Just ordered a decal set für the Saab whiffy Lansen project from RMB Decals in Sweden. Unfortunately, the set costs more(!) than the Heller kit, but since the Heller decal sheet is poorly printed AND the RMB set actually contains proper roundels and the necessary tactical code "FC 29" for the aircraft I want to replicate, I give it a try.

Santa came early.

A new 1/72 Airfix Lightning F.2A was delivered today.  The bits in the box can be described in one word.

Wow!

Worst thing about the kit is resisting the temptation to get another!!

[PR19_Kit]

Worst thing about the kit is resisting the temptation to get another!!

And that's a problem because.........

[Martin H]

Ive been told I have two of the above kit. But as my mum got to the package first, they have been wrapped up for some sort of gift giving shindig on the 25th.

[Radish]

Zvezda 1/144 Tu-160.....it'll be real for Stafford's theme for SMW14.
Zvezda 1/72nd T-50....certainly not real!!
Zvezda 1/72nd MiG-1.44....totally daft.....
Italeri Su-27 Sea Flanker (x 2)....to be totally screaming madness)
Academy F-15C (1/72nd)....to be laughingly silly)
HobbyBoss F-22 (1/72nd x 2......to be amazingly crazy)
