from the Aldersly wargames show, 1:48 X3 Stiletto ( RAF grey green wrap round and unit over the roundels ), a second 1:48 Tamiya JSDF T10 tank, and a 28mm scale Tori gate.
a moderate amount, and rather less than Mrs SPs gifts, a pack from the Colonel Bills Border revers range  2 riders hot trod, on Galloway Nags ( a very specific type of horse that was used in the area)  and a 28mm scale MDF building of Smailholm Tower complete with compound wall. Mrs SP was very happy to receive these  :wub: :thumbsup:

Went into my local model shop and one of these caught my eye. https://www.scalemates.com/kits/dreammodel-dm-720011-z-19-black-whirlwind--1243802

Sadly, on opening the box we found that the clear canopy was smashed. With luck he'll have a replacement from his supplier by Friday and I can pick the kit up on Saturday.  :thumbsup:

Same company is releasing a  1/72nd scale  AH-1Z  soon apparently.

I hope that turns out better than the Hobbycraft one Chris, the box says 1/72 but it scales out as 1/80.
If I'm not building models, I'm out riding my dirtbike

Makes 3 of us, i'm also waiting for that to come out. I've seen pics of the sprues and a built up kit on FB and it looks really good so, i believe we're gonna be happy.

BTW, i've recently ordered a Kittyhwak 1/48 AH-1Z from a Portuguese modelling shop which i'm going to visit in the beginning of the next month, near Porto, in the north of the country. Can't wait to visit that shop as i'll be picking up the kit there. I've been buying from them for quite a few years now and i'm rather eager to see the shop for myself and to meet the staff in person after 6 years of exchanging emails with them. Somehow, i suspect that that kit won't be the only thing i'll be bringing back with me from the shop... Can't push my luck, though, as my missus will be going with me... :rolleyes: ;D ;D

That'll be good  :thumbsup: Nice part of the country as well, only ever visited for a few days, but I liked it.
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Rescued from the Royal Mail sorting office an eBay win,

1 x 1/72 Italeri Ju 188 started, part's painted on the sprue so it will require to be stripped of the paint, looking at being a whiff, either my own version of a Ju 388 night fighter or a Ju 188 G-2

Delivered by Royal Mail to a neighbour, must have been a different postie from yesterday  :-\

1 x 1/48 Kinetic Mirage IIIBE/D/DE/DS/D2Z which I finally found at a decent price to go with an unexpected purches last year of a Scalworx Mirage IIIBZ conversion set

From BNA model world.  Because it was for some reason much, much cheaper than any of the other same scale bike kits.  And because I have good memories of building one as a youth.
Tamiya 1/12 Suzuki GSX1100S Katana.

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

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

Nice!

Ebay says I've won that Xtradecal Spitfire PR19 sheet for the start price - 99p!  And plus the quid postage, that's a definite score.

And the Tucano prop replacement from CMK has been ordered as IMO, it's worth it.

Delivered last Thursday. :thumbsup:
