1 x 1/72 A & A Models VJ101C-X1 which will probably be the recipiant of some decals and camo from an F-104G

Does the P-51 come with a Tom Cruise figure?  ;)

A life-size one...

Inflatable, perhaps...?

;D nope, no Tom in the box but I believe he could fit into one of those... ;D

Just ordered 2 1/144 Millennium Falcon on Amazon, the Lando Falcon, and the Han Falcon, to kitbash
Both kits have arrived, and sweet Hanna they're epic, going to save the Han Falcon and get a Rey Falcon (their first run and several errors in the production great kb fodder)

Some deliveries today from eBay

1 x 1/72 Hasegawa Europe AircraftWeapons Set X72 15

1 x 1/72 Zvezda Su-30SM "Flanker C"

1 x /72 Trumpeter H-7A Flying Leopard 01664  I don't normally add the box number but in this case it's because the "other" Flying Leopard by Trumpeter is badly wrong in the forward fuselage so is ideal for whiffing, This kit will be useld for a real life build

x /72 ICM MiG-25RBT #72172

Looking at the two ICM rece MiG-25's that I have recently bought, I am tempted to ditch the Condor kits I have and get more ICM versions as it looks great once you get inside the box.

I thought it pictured the preproduction series pretty well, but I'm happy to be corrected. Nevertheless - I have built two of these as whifs, but as usual, not quite gotten round to complete the loadout and decals. I do have an embryo backstory though. Eventually, you'll see.. 😉

In other news, I happened to catch a 1/72 Hasegawa SP-7H Neptune on Evilbay that arrived when I was away fixing the Defender earlier this week. Nice to come home to, even if I can't say I have any immediate plans for it.
I would also like a Martin P5M Marlin, but the only one I've seen, I missed because I was slow.  :rolleyes:
Ah well..
Praise the Lord and pass the ammunition!

Can totally understand the sentiment re ditching the Condor kits. The recent ICM Foxbats are absolute gems.  :wub: Detail and fit are great. And we now have the Wild Weasel Foxbat (Weaselbat?) and the interceptor. Looks like the two-seater is bound to be released soon as well.
Here's how my RBT turned out. Only aftermarket used was a pitot tube by Master.

Must, then, my projects bend to the iron yoke of a mechanical system? Is my soaring spirit to be chained down to the snail's pace of matter?

According to Scalemates the RU is already available with a PU version to be released later this year. So far the only interceptor version is the PD which looks as if there is an old molding and a new version, 72177 with the box art of the aircraft flying level from right to left is the newer molding which has the same basis as the reconnaissance version you have built.
