Re: My stash just grew again (2017)

I'd noticed that when it was released, I was impressed at how craftily Revell had managed to get around the licensing!

Is that the bench seat or individual seats in the front of the Torino, where's the red police beacon?

[Chris Payne]

Yet another couple added to the stash today.

Airfix 1/72 Jet Provost T.4 x2 (from my local Aldi)

Don't know about the seats Mac, and the flasher is prolly in the glove box.

(Thought I'd just cut'n'paste, sorry Chris  )

Maybe we can do the Red Pelicans collectively for an RAF display next year? 

I also got a Cromwell Mk.IV while I was at it.

Seven of them have gone directly to the stash and one is under construction as a Red Pelican.

[The Wooksta!]

I've got five of them and one's going Rhodesian.

[TheChronicOne]

THAT sounds killer. ^      I don't recall seeing any Rhodesian builds lately . .. . 

[The Wooksta!]

I do have a pair of Rhodesian Spitfire PR19s, plus a pair that have stalled due to a lack of suitable serials.  I did have intentions of building a Rhodesian Spiteful at some point too.

[Dizzyfugu]

A Hasegawa A-4E/F and a Trumpeter Jagdpanther, both 1:72 (naturally).

[McColm]

Won a 1/24 Bburago Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow II die-cast code .0134 in silver.
Although the Spirit of Ecstasy has been broken off there appears to be a bump in the boot/trunk lid made by the manufacture.
I'm not too sure whether this appeared in the early batches but it seems to be missing on other models.
So I went on line to check out the real world conversions. They are based on the Corniche, mainly Utes or racing cars.
A few have been converted into estate/station wagons and one into a flatbed.
I shall be experimenting with plastic card first, I could buff out the bump and respray in a two-tone finish if this proves an easier option.

Just won on ebay:

AZ Spitfire mk IX Joypack.

This finally arrived on thursday and upon going through it, I find there's an extra sprue - the fuselage sprue.  So it's 3.5 in one.  I'd say that's a result!  Sadly, there's no lower wing but somewhere in me spares box is a Fujimi lower wing and I know that it should fit.  And why?  Because the AZ lower wing is a copy of the Fujimi 14 wing - there's two blocked off holes in the radiator baths that are where the locator pins go on the Fujimi kit.

I got an early Christmas present yesterday! I've recently moved back to my hometown doing the same job, and someone who used to work here offered me a kit that was an unwanted gift to her son. So the stash is now up one Tamiya 1/72 Jaguar GR.1!

Friends on Facebook may have spotted it in my In Tray in a photo of my new desk I shared yesterday
