Not that I'm going add all these to that poor F-15, but with all those missiles lying around it seemed a shame not to do this shot...

Styrene in my blood and an impressive void in my cranium.

If so, wanna swap those cluster bombs for somat ? I've got loads of ords in that scale, plua all the Hase weapons sets.

Yep, all 1:72. I'm not sure what to do with the F-15: I built it before I got serious about modelling. It's now painted 'light aircraft gray' (Humbrol 166) on top, and 'semigloss blue gray' (Revell 378) on the bottom, and I lost the original decals. It's all brushpainted, so most of the panel lines are gone. It's also the only finished 1:72 aircraft in my collection. :o  
Most of the weapons are from the Hasegawa Aircraft Weapons V set, with a few more from an Airfix Gripen (being built now) and an Airfix SR. 53 (about to be restored).

Capt. Canada: what did you mean by "somat"? I'd be interested in a swap...

Hobbes, what is the meaning of "R" in your title, that you are looking for ? (I am not speaking fluently English, sorry, and I would like to smile if it is funny)...
or... would you be interested by my source concerning the twin-boomers Schach R, Adlershof R, Schutte-Lanz R ?
[the word "realistic" hurts my heart...]

That's a joke the moderators put in, after I said "I'm running out of R's" in the pirate thread.

Here's a thought: maybe we should open up a section of the "Swap" section of the forum for arms deals.

For instance, the Scooterman trades a load of his clusters to Capt. Canada for, oh, something.  I could then perhaps unload this overstock of AGMs that I have for some AAMs of some sort.  My cup runneth over with early-model Sidewinders, but they're rather deficient with regard to longer-ranged combat.

Great idea if you want a visit from Special Branch ! <_<  
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

But think of all the fun you can have filling out the forms that go with the package.
Contents: 4 Raytheon AIM-120 AMRAAM
Value: $ 2.4 million
Warning: contains explosives and rocket fuel

(OK, so the last line is sure to make the post office flip)
