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

From the MZ firesale:

1 x Airfix Swordfish floatplane.

Not bothered about the floats as I'd like to do it as a real world one from HMS Glorious in the 1930s.  But armed, for the raid on Tarranto that was planned in the 30s.

The Ark Royal colour bands though...  Well, I've a Sea Hurricane 30s style that wants them.

Off ebay,  a couple of dirt-cheap Airfix 1/43rd rally cars, because they might be good wheel donors for something else:

Peugeot 206 WRC'00 w/Clarion/Esso decals
Peugeot 206 WRC'03 w/Clarion/Total decals

From F&S models:

PM 1/72nd Messerschmitt P.1111 - thought I'd better grab it while I could..... :-\

Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

I believe your Revel X-3 is 1/65th scale.

They are just physical manifestations of collisions between enigma & conundrum particles.

Any aircraft can be improved by giving it a SHARKMOUTH!

Found the MPM shop in Prague. It is a dangerous place. You could walk away much poorer but with lots of kits!  ;)

With only 5 minutes to browse I grabbed an AZmodels? Gotha P.60 jet flying wing for about £11. Comes with three options of US, Japanese or Soviet. I'm thinking RAF Boscombe Down 1947.
