L/F 1/72 and 1/48 props and canopies

[KiwiZac]

Hi team,
I'm on the hunt for a few parts for several projects. I'm afraid I cannot offer payment except for heartfelt gratitude and a full acknowledgement/credit in the build post.

- 1/72 Bristol Freighter propellers and spinners x2
- 1/72 old Airfix Lightning windscreen and canopy
- 1/72 Matchbox Lightning T.55 windscreen and canopy
- 1/72 Gloster Meteor F.8 windscreen and canopy
- 1/72 Hawker Typhoon three-bladed propeller and spinner
- Hobbycraft 1/48 DHC-3 Otter propeller

I'd love to hear from you if you can help

Hi Zac,

I can defiantly help with the Airfix Spitfire decals and maybe with the Typhoon decals but I will have to rake through the stash to see if that's the boxing I have.

With regards to the ESCI AV-8A canopy and windshield, did you break the one in the kit I sent?

Thanks Gondor, PM coming your way.

I've got a Hasegawa Mohawk but it's <checks spreadsheet> 47 years old.  I'll have a look at the transfers and if they look any good you can have them.
It's this release from 1973.

Don't get your hopes up though.  IME Hasegawa transfers that old don't come off the paper no matter how long you let them soak.

Thanks Fred! If it helps, I'm after the yellow titles and serials that are used on the all-Olive Drab scheme and Scalemates is suggesting your boxing may have only the box scheme.

I had a look.  There is indeed only the box art transfers in the box.  Not that it matters anyway as they look awfully dried up.  They are yellowed and exhibit the slightly textured look of something which is not going to want to let go of the backing paper.

I've got Dutch East Indies Triangle Roundels, Zac. They're made by Pioneer, so I've no idea how old they are.

Thanks anyway Fred. Fortunately a kind soul at another forum has been in touch so that box is ticked

That's what I have too! Hopefully yours are in better nick - mine are cracked and would I think benefit from some bonder spray. Would you be kind enough to send me a scan of yours? I may have to ask someone to copy them...

Sure, give me a bit to dig them all out
