My father sent me money unexpectedly for the new year, in case this is his last year (or mine) :-\
I ordered at Unicraft the Kogiken III twin-fuselage and the Mitsubishi Zero twin-boomer (radial Fokker D-XXIII), then a 1/144 F-16 to complete (I will turn it into a tail-sitter), and there was still a little money remaining: a Zwezda Ju-87 1/144. Thanks Daddy! ;D
Tophe,
I'll take the F-16's weapons off your hands, lol

Tophe

Yes, mine will be civilian, I will send you the weapons, bad for my (naive) taste. :-\ ;)

Picked up my pre-order from Halifax Modellers World today.

A full box of 12x Airfix 1/72 Phantom FGR.2's.



And dug out my decals to go with them.

Tophe, my friend, you're far from naive. Everyone has their opinions and they are entitled to them. Your preference for unweaponized aircraft is commendable considering the sheer volume of war machine models available. I have sincere respect for you.

Thanks for the 1/144 scale weapons, my friend, they'll be put to use.

By the by, does anyone make Osean Federation Decals in 1/144?

Only one Chris ?  :angel:
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

So what are you populating 43, 74 and 111 squadrons with and are 1435 Flight and the OCU included as well, not to mention the various test establishments?

I still have 5x FG.1 kits as well as a number of Fujimi British Phantoms. As for the 74 Squadron F-4J(UK), I built that one a few years ago. I may even need to purchase a few moore FGR-2's at a later date.

Actually Chris, 43, 74 and 111 operated FGR.2's et the end of their eperating history with the Phantom so you could confuse some people by having FGR.2's in those squadrons as well.

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