My stash just grew again 2021

[The Wooksta!]

Try to get the current Whirlybird boxing, as it comes with resin wheel well bays and cockpit tub, but be quick.

That's what I had for my last one Lee. I'm quite happy to go with what I have.

That looks years ahead of its time! Nice!

After announcing my last purchase of the year I found an eBay seller with quite a few good kits going at auction for good prices plus combined shipping so I got a VERY good deal on:

1/48 Airfix Hunter F.6
1/48 Airfix Red Arrows Gnat
1/48 Airfix Spitfire PR.XIX
1/72 Airfix A-4B.

All brand new red-box kits delivered to the front door for about $90 total.

A nice early visit today from Father Christmas.

1 x Italeri 1/48 North American F-86E Sabre (IT2799) - to be kit bashed with the 1/72 La-200B I bought last order (the 1/72 F-86 I bought wasn't going to work)
1 x Eduard 1/72 Zlin Z-37A Cmelak Bumblebee [Weekend Edition] (ED 7456) - curse you Václav "PantherG" Maděra!
1 x Eduard 1/72 Czechoslovak Fighter Biplane Avia B-534 II Serie [Weekend Edition] (ED 7448) - this may be a build for my grandson, maybe
1 x Special Hobby 1/72 Czechoslovakia L-13 Blanik (SH72342) - will be done as VH-GIW, the L-13 I learned to fly in at the Millicent Gliding Club in the late-80's ... kinda, I have only vague memories & no photo's
1 x Special Hobby 1/72 WWII Czechoslovak AF Letov S-328 (SH72145) - it's Czech, do I need another reason?
1 x Trumpeter 1/35 Sweden Strv 103C Main Battle Tank (TR 00310) - it's an S-tank & it was cheap(ish)

This lot arrived at the PO box this morning.

The 103's a small beast!

Well, like Nick, i announced my last acquisitions for the stash in 2021 recently but, it's been a while since i've been looking for one of these for under 60€ and finally found a good promotion in a Portuguese online store for 45€ with free shipping. 



Still waiting for an Italeri 1/72 Super Etendard and a set of Reskit 1/48 Python 5 missiles that comes with 2 pairs of these "Go get'em Sticks"... And, last night i just couldn't sleep so i sat at the pc and got on the AK interactive site... ended up ordering the 1/48 Modelsvit P-51H and a couple of washes...

Xmas gift from my favourite sister.

Looks good in the box.  Will be RAAF white-tail scheme.

[Old Wombat]

What a nice favourite sister!

Or is she your favourite sister because she was so nice?

[zenrat]

Whether Katherine remains my favourite depends on what Suzanne has bought me this year...

[Mossie]

Nothing for me kit wise for Christmas, but got the kids an Airfix Quickbuild P-51D Mustang and F-35 so I can get a modelling fix by proxy. Did manage to score a Lego Technic Hovercraft though!

The practical (a.k.a. mercenary) response!

£10 Sussex Model Centre voucher off grandson #2.  He'll be living about 30 mins walk away from there from January, so a trip down there in the New Year.

I had a hard time coming up with gift ideas to give SWMBO this year so she just told me to send some model ideas. She did quite well with the list I sent her!  My best Chrimbus model haul in a long time.
