My stash just grew again (2016)

[TheChronicOne]

Imagine one in 1/72?!   That one is like 3 and half feet long...         (about 3 and a half hundred dollars, too....  )

I think the 1/144 is perfect.. big enough to be BIG and small enough to fit somewhere...... hopefully.

A pair of Fujimi HMS Eagles off eBay from Japan.

Part of building up the carrier collection as want to do both the Eagle and Ark Royal from initial service to Phantomisation

If its 72nd scale you want...............................................try this one for size  And you were pretty much there on the price as well.

Yeah, that's the one I had in mind!! One day I'd like to have one.    Not sure where I'd keep it, but man, I need one for my 1/72 fleet.  I get a kick out of the words, "gigantic casting."  That's the truth, for sure!!

Those Anigrand folks make a lot of really neat subject matter. Way out of my price range, though.  About the cheapest one I've see is this thing for ~ $50. (looking now at the website you posted I see some more for cheaper, sweet!  )



I wonder how good the quality is of Anigrand stuff? 

[Old Wombat]

Never seen any but, from what I've read, generally very good.

Close!

I've got two C-5 Galaxy's in 1/72 (one Blackbird Models one and one Combat Models one), and two 747's (Both Aircraft in Miniature).  Here's a pic of the 1/72 drawing that comes with the Blackbird Models kit.

The floor boards here are about 5" wide, the tiny kit in the bottom right corner is a 1/72 Bede BD5







I've also got the 1/144 Revell kit of the C-5, plus the An-124 and A380

[TheChronicOne]

My goodness, you could club someone to death with it!   

How close was I? I did some quick math and came up with approx 41 inches. Math isn't always my strong point.   

[kitnut617]

Yep!  41 1/8" is the conversion to 1/72 scale

The Cyber Hobby 1/72 Meteor Mk.1 was at the post office today.  What a lovely little kit, and it has not one but "two" jet engines included. The jet engined FTB Anson is definitely on----

[zenrat]

From vendors at the Wings model show at the Australian National Aviation Museum at Moorabbin.  All 1/72 obviously.
Zvezda Gloster E28/39 (the frog moulds).

Cooperativa (scalemates says UNDA moulds - box says distributed by MPM) Su-25UBK Frogfoot.

And for the Hasegawa "box art collection"
FW 190D (Look! Swastikas on the box top!  Having viewed them I feel the urge to do unspeakable things like vote One Nation!).

T-33A Shooting Star.

T-38A Talon

I just wish the vendor hadn't put those big green price labels on the Hasegawa boxes.  They'll rip the boxes if I try and peel them off so i'll have to let time loosen the glue for me.

I've got the 1/72 Anigrand Martin SeaMaster kit. The fuselage halves don't mach up but dipping them into hot water will regain the shape, the instructions are not as crude as the Mach2 kit but lack detailing. The moulding can be a bit thick in places. Best wash all resin parts before assembly.

1/72 BAe EAP prototype

New at my Stash.

the instructions are not as crude as the Mach2 kit but lack detailing.

Can you use the words 'instructions' and 'Mach 2' in the same sentence?
