All in 1/350 scale.
I am very tempted to buy this kit whenever it comes out. ;)


At least one of them in  1426 flight RAF Farnborough livery, with Eric (Winkle) Brown's initial enemy aircraft assessment report as a backstory might serve to amuse!

I wanted to do that with the Squadron one.

If a garage resin company came up with this one I'd have thought it was on the esoteric side....  :o

16.44m long.

I know you were all thinking it.  That's the length of a 1/16 Yamato.

I've hired Broads cruisers a LOT shorter than that!  :o
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! :)

You'd need a 53' flatbed and tractor just to haul it to shows.

Even if I the neighbours were happy about an extension front and back, I'd still have to convince them about the prow overhanging the fence.

I have been skimming in a desultary way through past postings, in order to see if there were items that I could possibly transmute into backstories.  Would it annoy/upset/offend anyone if I were to do some research and 'find'  Eric Brown's  enemy aircraft assessment report?

I think that would be an exceptionally important historical document, of course you should research & find Capt. Brown's EAAR for the Haunebu "aircraft"! :thumbsup:  :angel:

There are at least two colour options for each version so, I might have to buy TWO sets!!

What about taking that floating dock..turn it into a flying dock with jets or propellers on rotating mounts and having it armed to the teeth and having the saucers landed on it .
Like a flying base and as mentioned..alot of tiny PE .1/35th working PE hinges is enough for me .
If it aint broke ,,fix it until it is .
Over kill is often very understated .
I know the voices in my head ain't real but they do come up with some great ideas.
Theres few of lifes problems that can't be solved with the proper application of a high explosive projectile .

But those are only what is supplied, there must have been more color options in real life?
