Yeap worked out only a couple of quid more than getting it here mail order, and its here rather than the UK ones which are due in the 24/12 and probably won't get out till after christmas or even the new year.

Booger. I knew the Swift was delayed but thought it was de any day 

Still no probs, hopefully means that it, the Do17 and Blenheim IV will be out at the same time or there about'ish

Unless you're a Bf.110 fan, of course....... (are there such things?)

I am

oh yeah! and tell me which is the best 1/72 Bf.110 kit then?

[TallEng]

Shame about the Swift, I was looking forward to that for Christmas
Still never mind, to make up for it I went to the Airfix 'Black Monday sale'....
(Virtually) and on their way (soonish) to the English stash in holding for Germany,
Are 3 Yellowjack Folland Gnats, well at £1.99 for that lovely kit..... You'd be foolish not too
2 Union Jack Bae Hawks 2012 RAF Benevolent fund scheme
2 Bae Hawk 128 in the Mclaren/west Scheme (I think it's the Bae Demo scheme) but it's always
Reminded me of the F1 Colours of Mclaren.
And as make weight for the £30 free postage a Tucano

From ebay:

Monogram F19 stealth fighter.  Finally, the trio is complete.

[Mossie]

Hasegawa 1/72 S2F-1 Tracker 'JMSDF'.  From a friends stash, £7.  Will probably be a real world water bomber, to feed my current obsession.

[Gondor]

An arrival yesterday from ebay

1/72 Microscale 72-65 which will probably go towards my F-4 builds

A vintage ERTL TIE Interceptor! HAd this kit many years ago, started it, never finished, and then it fell apart... but some pieces remained, so I think these will be bashed in/onto a new, whiffy TIE interceptor prototype. 

[Spey_Phantom]

just got another 1/144 Revell Airbus A400M this morning 

[NARSES2]

Relieved the ex Alders of some more Humbrol paints on offer 

Also noted that the MZ in Smiths has had a bit of a switch around. They appear to have had a delivery so relieved them of an Airfix Hurricane Mk I (yes I have built/am building a few already) This is the second boxing with the BoB machine and thus no early model parts, but I have a few of those anyway. They also have the pre-war/Belgian boxing in stock 

[The Chaos]

For Christmass.

From my Dealer:
a 1/72 Fiesler Storch from Academy
a 1/72 Polikarpov I-153 "Chaika" from ICAM
a 1/72 Horten from REVELL
a 1/72 Albertros DIII from Roden.
a 1/72 Dornier pfeil from Hobby Boss
a 1/72 Blenheim MK I from Airfix.

From ebay:

I'm jealous. You lucky ..........! 


Anyway.........just ordered from Freetime Hobbies:
1/72 Planet Models A-12A Avenger II (Was on Clearence for $40 or so.)
1/350 Bronco Models USS San Diego SAN ANTONIO class LPD.

Got my $7 evil-bay Airfix Ford Trimotor.
Turns out to be missing the side window "glass", the fuselage has been glued together without fitting the interior parts and the fuselage mounted undercarriage struts have been broken off.
All of which mean it's ideally suited for it's role as a parts donor.
As well as using the seat to civilianise a Ca-311 the wing engines will be ideal power units for my tilt-fan FW 189 idea and the big corrugated wing with opening underside cargo compartments could be the start of a 30's water bomber.
