My stash just grew again (2015)

I think I have! Slightly less disturbing than the "Velociraptor pinups" I found on Etsy last night  ....the things that titillate some folks are beyond me! These little guys will remain as traditional raptors.

I think that's a wise choice.

Some things Man wasn't meant to know... or contemplate...  quick, where's something shiny to distract me?

Been looking for this one for some time, Revell 1/72 Northrop F-5B from Racer's Heaven in the U.S. Very nice kit, they should do an E/N and F variant with this quality.

Ended up adding a few more to the stash today.

Fun Model 1/72 Nanchang Q-5
Italeri 1/72 F-117
Airfix 1/72 Supermarine Swift FR.5

From Rob at West Coast:

1/72 Special Hobby Douglas B-18, USAAC Pre-WWII (at $20CAD 'twas too good a deal to pass up, especially with the exchange rate.  )
1/72 RS Models Northrop XP-79B

Some of the my shopping frenzy arrived today, from the UK shop Model Hobbies, 1/72 AZ Shenyang F.5 and Revell F-4F Phantom, from Skyblue Hobby, in Japan, the Tamiya 1/72 F-16CJ with weapons. Also from the UK, this one from a private seller comes a Hasegawa 1/72 Jaguar Mk.1A, and from France's Bassin Maquette came a Heller Saab JA37 Viggen. Last one, from the US, an old bagged Matchbox Alpha jet.

Managed to lay my paws on the Revell F-111 Tactical Fighter (TFX) kit optional noses and wings from ebay For an F-111K, is that long nose & short wings or vice versa?

F-111K had a long nose and short wings despite what the majority of people say.

An F-111B of course 

The F-111K was the A fitted with FB-111 wheels for tougher landings as was intended to work East of Suez from the Island mounting bases, some UK avionics and the most visual clue being the retractable refuelling probe ahead of the windscreen. The K also had the option to fit tanks in the bombbay and an internal brace for an external belly pylon. Not sure where the long winged K urban myth sprung from apart from maybe  the RAAF selecting the C ot that parts from on of the K's in build were used in a FB-111A as the media from the day clearly state a modified A

Only two K's were started before the order was cancelled, these were moved from the assembly line to a holding area until a decision was made.  After cancellation the two were ""reduced to spares"" and used in the FB-111A production.  There's a couple of photos of them together in the holding area which I have seen. Neither were complete, one had wings attached while the other didn't.  There was one FB-111A painted up in RAF camo scheme for demonstration purposes, this has sometime been mistaken as a completed FB-111K
