My stash just grew again. (2022)

[NARSES2]

Nice haul 

I'd actually forgotten Airfix had done a Starfighter. Glad to see it was made in England

[PR19_Kit]

VERY nice! 

Eagles Talon made very good vacforms, so I doubt you'll rue the $1 spent on the Fireball.

Good score mate.
One i'm jealous about is the S6b.
Thats a huge box for a 1/72 Fokker Triplane.

I can get my hands on a 1/72 Ark Models S.6B for cheap and have it sent to you?

If that's a re-popped FROG kit, it's a better model than the Airfix S6B anyway.

Only reason why that kit popped up on my radar, is that someone attempted to troll it's post because it is a Russian made kit with Cyrillic letters on it. I let my Moderator Mode take over and shut him down, and I'm not even a Mod in that group, lol!

Some years back I got a russian boxed Frog S6B, only to find one fuselage half.  Was only a quid so it didn't matter.  Year or so later, I snagged an Eastern Express boxed one for £2 in the Kit Swap at Telford.

I'm planning on using the wings from a Supermarine 224 with the S6B fuselage at some point.

A REAL prototype no less. 

This arrived in the post today from the far North :-



It's Lost Cosmonaut's newest production, the Barnes Wallis Swallow in 1/144 scale, and you can tell I'm the one who got to built it as it has some of THE longest wings ever! This is the first one off the line and I'll be doing the test built and reporting to Aistair, warts and all.

[Lost Cosmonauts]

Excellent! Glad it got there ok in the end (and that the nose and those thin bits on the forward section around the wheel bays survived intact*, I had worries about them surviving)

Happy building!

* Edit: dagnabbit! I now see one has snapped. Sorry about that*

[Wardukw]

Oh now that looks like a very nice kit and sleek seems a understatement

Sent you a PM about it.

So, from the same FB group, that I get my Fix from, this weekend, snagged the following:

1/ukn Lindberg CSS Virginia, for the group build
1 Squadron Books F3H Demon in action book

[Wardukw]

Scored my very first 1/144 scale model today and definitely not my normal purchase.
Airfix Special Edition BAC Concorde.
16 model mags
6 dvds.
$47 NZ for the lot.
Ive cleaned out the four banana boxes of mags they have at Stocker Models ..got the mags i wanted ..in total..79 mags in total 

[NARSES2]

Bigger box than expected arrived from the Big H this morning.

Hobby 2000 (ex Fujimi) 1/72 Nakajima J1N1-S "Gekko" early. Looks to be a simple build, touch wood, and the transfers are by Cartograph, so no problems there.

Tucked inside were some Eduard mask and zoom etch sets and a Quickboost seat for an Airfix Mosquito and a Revell Hunter.

[Gondor]

Like NARSES2 I also received a box from the Big H today,

Inside was a Handley Page Hastings C.1 in 1/144 scale by Micro-Mir

and a 1/72 Quinta Studio 3D decal set for an F-4J

From eBay

1 x 1/72 Hasegawa F-4S Phantom II KA2 boxing. To become an RAF F-4J by crosskitting the outer wing panels with spares in an RF-4EJ kit.
