Hadn't heard of them so never went looking.  TBH, I've got the Liberator which is all I really need although I want Scorpio in a decent - ie BIG - scale.

I was out with the girlfriend today so we popped into her local "Hobby Craft" store as you do to see if there was anything interesting, her for crafting bits and pieces and myself for modelling stuff. Saw some interesting coloured wire which I may pick up at the end of the month, for detailing work such as plumbing. I did pick up a pot of Tamiya XF-85 Rubber Black.
Later as we walked past "The Works" and a Gift set of the new Airfix Harrier GR1 caught my eye especially as it was reduced to £6.99 from £9.99 and I also had £1.25 worth of points on my store card.
Rather happy with the results of today's shopping even though I didn't go out looking for anything.

Modeling isn't just about how good the gluing or painting, etc. looks. It's also about how creative and imaginative you can be with a subject.
My modeling philosophy is: Don't build what everyone else has done. Build instead what nobody has seen or done before.

You lucky sod, all my local Works has got is boxes of 109's and 190's.... If they had some other decent kits I'd get some.
