My stash just grew again 2021

[Flyer]

I have one of those Yak-17 kit's, something inside the box put me off and it got placed into deep storage to be tackled sometime in the distant future. Vac formed canopy or metal parts or something like that, I don't remember... 

That'll be the vac formed canopy.  No PE but it does have resin for the cockpit.

So it's the Special Hobby Focke Wulf jet (that I can never remember the designation of) that has the PE then, got them both at the same time and put both away as soon as I received them because of the vac form and PE parts. Done the same with around 6 other kits for the similar reasons, one is a short run MB.326 that has a vac form canopy, white metal U/C and no locating pins or tabs anywhere, but be dammed if I can remember what the rest are, just that they are there somewhere...

Both the Fw P.II and the Flitzer had a generic PE fret, with belts and radio aerials.

The latter had a better fuselage pod than the Revell kit, although the wheels still sucked.

Both were very early kits by Special Hobby and most of them were Luftwaffe 46 types for a good few years.

P.II that's it! Why do I find that so hard to remember?

It may only be a generic fret that's included but it is enough to snuff out my already fragile and faltering mojo so any kits with extra stress, um I mean part's get automatically placed in the 'maybe someday but not today' storage boxes.

part's get automatically placed in the 'maybe someday but not today' storage boxes.

I've got a box exactly like that!

I'll take pics of the B-47 sprues if you like.  I think it might look grouse in SEA camo.

Nah it's ok mate, but thanks all the same. I'll take a peek inside the next box I see at a show  Will look good in SEA camo and even better with a figure of Jimmy Saville as the pilot 

Now then, now then, rattle, rattle, jewellery, jewellery...

I had to check that I hadn't actually typed that 

One idea for the Walrus would be to turn the engine round and make it a "puller" rather than "pusher" ?

Maybe an engine at each end of the nacelle?

I lined up the fuselage halves of the Airfix and Revell kits.

You wouldn't want to combine them unless you absolutely had to but i've built worse fitting kits (i'm talking about you A Model).
Overall length is the same and they are close enough in surface detail that one could get away with using them together to build a twin hulled amphibian.

I like it, sort of a Brit built Savoia Marchetti.

Twin-hull is magic, even if the source kit is not...

A rarity for me; two 1/72 aircraft.

Hasegawa MacDonnell Douglas RF-101C Voodoo

This boxing but I only have the box top, the rest is in its (sealed) bag in a zip-lock bag with a tiny resin bang-seat taped to it.
Possibly something simple & AAAC or RAAF for the Recce GB or Pirates, et al., GB, if I'm in the mood to indulge.

Hasegawa Lockheed S-3A Viking

This boxing, complete & sealed but not in the plastic bag(s) & (was) covered in bubble-wrap.
Will end up RAN, either VS-816 or VS-851.

PS: Fred, if you want the box tops, they're yours.

Maybe an engine at each end of the nacelle?

How about four de Havilland Gipsy Six Rs from a D.H. 88 Comet? Two slender twin naceless, with a pusher/pull prop each?

A lovely kit, the RF-101C. I've got the Sun Run version, two kits in one box and a special decal sheet to go with it. 

That kit needed a letter from my MP to the UK Border Agency before I could get it through Customs!

eBay says I've won the Tamiya Mosquito NF.XIII/XVII I was after.


Which is nice.

Whatever did they think was iffy about that?

They wanted to charge me a fortune, about 200% of the price of the kit, to import it. I suggested that would be described as 'theft' from anyone else, and my MP agreed.

Received direct from Malaya

2 x 1/72 NAZA Model ART Hawk 208 Nose Conversion for either the Italeri or Airfix Hawk 100 Kits

Unfortunatly one of the conversion sets had two left cockpit sides.
