Off eBay an Airfix Bristol 192 Belvedere in the most recent boxing.

This is to become a Royal Navy type 191 ASW version  ;)

Didn't OGL just build one of them?

Nope that was a 192 with a radome as an AEW version.

The 191 is 4ft shorter with a belly panier for a pair of Torpedoes or Depth charges in tandem plus dipping sonar and a wasp style bedstead undercarriage.

Do you have a picture of that Geoff?

From the mystery kit sale at the Ballarat NNL (wrapped kits identified only as Automotive, Military, Aircraft, Seagoing...).

Revell 1/80 Martin B57
Revell 1/58 Honest John Missile & Transporter.

I wouldn't normally have bought either but both will provide interesting & useful whiffing materials

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

Absolutely  ;D :thumbsup:

I just wonder how different the figures look ? I've looked at loads of figures of "Buffy"  :wub: :wub: and none of them look anything like Sarah M Geller  :banghead:

Today arrived the 2 seater Gripen from JayBee's stash reduction. Nice kit indeed, and another load of AMRAAM's to add to the stash of them, must be getting on for 100 of them by now. I think I will do this and the single seater as U.S Marine birds, as they do suit 2 tone grey schemes. OR... a wrap round 3 shades of green like I did one of my Rafales.Hmm...?

links to the 2 versions
http://www.crooked-dice.co.uk/wp/product/winterly-travers/       is the original version
http://www.crooked-dice.co.uk/wp/product/federated-security-command/    is the new version

at the scale they are, quite good likenesses

True.  The original version seems to be the original Stephen Greif Travis from season 1.  Can't place Servalan's outfit but Season 2's "Star One" seems closest.  The new version is Servalan circa Season 2's "Weapon" with the Brian Croucher version of Travis.

Having gone through some of the options in there, there's more Blake's 7 figures, including a Season 4 Avon and Bounty Hunter Blake.  One set comes with a mini ORAC!

I always liked the idea of Federation troopers in white suits on skis.

Space Rats. If someone did punks in the same scale, you'd probably get away with repainting them.
