Hi Robert,

Good timing, I was about to post something!

Well I will have another batch of EAP's and Avro 720's for the show. The 720 has not been available for over 18 months so hopefully these will be popular. I have a set of X-4 missiles and pylons for the new Airfix FW-190 (or whatever you want to put them on), and hopefully a Avro Lancaster 'Blockbuster' conversion (with consists of all the parts in the Tallboy set, but with a 12,000lb HC 'Blockbuster' bomb replacing the Tallboy). A number of smaller RAF bits should be ready, including TERMA and LITTENING III pods for the Tornado GR.4, the Harrier GR.3 corrected fin for Airfix, and re-issue of the PR.XI conversion, now with a clear resin canopy. All the above are 1/72, but I should also have one or two sets for the new Italeri Hurricane IIc in 1/48 scale ready to.   

On the decal front will be Keeping the Peace Pt.II in 1/72, this covers RAF and SAAF Mustang IV's, a Polish and British Spitfire Mk.IX and a New Zealand Corsair based in Japan in 1946. Also will be launching a new range of decals under the Blue Max name, first release covers RAF F.2B Bristol Fighters around the Empire during the 1920's, only in 1/48. 

Last up, will be a new 1.72 what-if conversion set, in collaboration with Chris Gibson's Project Tech series, but I'm not saying anymore about it until I get the test casts, hopefully next week. Needless to say Mike McEvoy is already on the case planning his first two builds, if things go to plan he will have finished them for Telford, or possibly may still be building them on the club stand if I don't pull my finger out in time!

And finally, I'm also taking over as UK stockist for High Planes of Singapore, so should have Daggers, Mirages and Fingers coming out of my ears, plus a special new Plus Pack boxing of the Mirage IIIE exclusively for Telford.....           

Is that enough for you? I hope so because I won't have any room in the anything else! Please note all the above are subject to change due to cock up's that might occur in the next couple of weeks!

Hi Colin

Put me down for a 720 and one of the ProjectTech conversions (Can't we get Paul to create the actual P139B as that might be rather tasty with some of the alternative designs from the book  ;) ) plus the Harrier fin.

Cheers

Hehehe, actually no Colin, we're a 'mutually funded organisation' now we're both pensioners.

I just wish you wouldn't keep making all these wonderful things for likes of us. Er, no, I don't really mean that of course.  ;D

Thanks for the update Colin. Will be after some of the GR3 fins and a Avro 720 unless the What if project takes my fancy. Is it a prop or jet ?

Colin, if you've any of the decals left from your reboxing of the AZ F.XIV/F.XVIII could I have two of each please?

Will give you a clue at the weekend, once I get test casts  :smiley:. If I give you too many clues you will all guess it for sure, but its a jet.
