It certainly does, thanks, it's a sight closer than Antics in Gloucester, which is 20+ miles from me.

A Master/MisterCraft MiG-19S in 1:72. Maybe to be converted into an operational SM-12 for the Cold War GB.

From the Airfix Last Chance sale:

2 x 1/76th Bedford QLT & QLD trucks
1 x 1/144th Boeing 727
1 x 1/144th Boeing 737

No definite plans, but the nice Britannia Airways logo in the 737 has got me thinking about Brits In Space....

1/72 Mach2 Martin Sea Master

Ed S · January 12, 2016, 05:36:08 PM

Went to the Chattanooga contest over the weekend. Picked up some potential WHIFF's.

Pegasus Fj-1 Fury 1/72
NOVO Supermarine Attacker 1/72
Matchbox BAE Hawk 200 1/72

Now to start planning their metamorphosis.

Fleabay was hit a bit hard over the festives. Been lurking here for a little while and whiffing is calling:
Revell's 1/72 Rafale, NH90 Italieri's Gripen & OA4, Airfix Hawk & Tucano.

Rafale & Skyhawk will be in RN colours, the latter for the Cold War GB.
The others wil follow on from my Scottish Independence "yes vote" back-story, posted elsewhere on this site.

From Evil-Bay (broke my golden rule and bought from S.Korea).
Tamiya 1/72 Jaguar GR-1. Made in Italy which makes me think it's a reboxed Italeri kit.
This is another plane I built (and wrecked) as a kid. In this case an Airfix Jag but I can't find one of them as cheap as this.
No idea what to do with it but it has the nose moulded separately which is always useful when whiffing.

You are correct in that thinking. Italeri have a re boxing arrangement with Tamiya that allows easier access for Italeri to the Japanese market for some of its 1/72nd aircraft kits. It also allows Tamiya to fill gaps cheaply in its own line up.
