My stash just grew again 2018.

IBG 1/72nd PZL-42 (Karas development with no gondola and twin tail fins). Looks lovely in the box, with a fully detailed interior included PE, so a real bargain at £7.

Yup it's a lovely kit, I have a second for my torpedo bomber version. Looking forward to their PZL 37 Los

...Italeri 1/72nd A-129 Mangusta - had an idea that involves one of these just yesterday, so it seemed like fate...

It doesn't involve Rogue Trooper does it?

Loved that little kit, I called mine a CH-151 Thunderbird after I did quite a bit of changes to it.  Oddly I can still find photos of it when I do a google image search, but there's nothing there when you click on the photo to expand it.

1 x 1/72 Revell Arado Ar 234 B-2/C-2/C-3

The mind BOGGLES!

Think you'd need the Grumman Goose or Mallard, the Gosling is way too small.

Maybe just one jet, in the middle.

1 x Tamiya 1/35 Matilda Mk.III/IV British Infantry Tank (TM 35300) - the 3rd for the stash, currently building the 1st (& it's going together beautifully, it's the Bronco "workable" late model tracks that are slowing the build)
1 x Mirror Models 1/35 British Morris C8 Quad Mk.III No. 5 (MM35400)
1 x MasterBox 1/35 WWII British Infantry Weapons (MB 35109)
1 x Tamiya 1/35 Federal German Marder 1A2 MICV w/ Milan ATM. (TM 35162) - to be combined with my other Marder 1A2 to make a SciFi exploration vehicle to replace a single-Marder version from which parts will be stolen
2 x Legend Products 1/35 SAS Jeep Wheel Set (4 Front Wheels, 2 Spare Wheels) (LF1232)

Stash grew! The Quad looks good in the box but I haven't opened it up for a complete inspection. Ditto the weapon & wheel sets.

Haven't opened the Matilda or Marder at all, I know what they look like & neither will look like that when I've finished with them!

Just picked up my ACE  V-150 with 20 or 90mm mercar gun. Just like the other version, it has lots of tiny parts to go at so it should keep me busy for a while. Nice kit, and looking forward to the centauro being released.

Got hands on a 1:72 Trumpeter Wyvern for EUR 11,-. No real plan, but it was a nice occasion and I could not resist... 

[PR19_Kit]

Wandered into my LHS (20 miles away in Gloucester) which is an occasion that only happens maybe 4-5 times/yr, looking for some bits and pieces, glue, paint etc.

To my utter amazement there on the shelves was a 1/24 AMT Sunbeam Tiger kit!!!!!! 

I've got one of the Blueprinter series of this kit from way back when, and I'd built an original one even further ago, but seeing a NEW one blew my mind. It seems it's by a company called 'Round2', who I've never heard of before, and it seems they've bought up loads of AMT, MPC, Auto World and other moulds and are re-popping them. Their web site is WELL worth looking at for the car modellers amongst us, but they also do some Lindberg non-car stuff too.

Needless to say the LHS no longer has the Tiger kit, I've got it. 

The personal link is I worked on the early prototypes of the Tiger in the mid 60s, one superb motor car.

Well I have been wanting to get a couple of 1/72 Gooses. I've kind of liked the thing ever since I saw it in a TV show many years ago. For some reason when I unpacked the kits I had this image of that little Gosling all hot-rodded up with overpowered engines by some crazy mad inventor

I do like the idea of a single central mount though. I'm a long time lurker with limited skills but common sense tells me I have to twin up the tail as well.

Hmm, maybe I should look for some smaller jets from somewhere.

No, but my plans for my pair of RAH-66 Commanches do....
