Some items arrived today......



One from eBay, a 1/72 Revell Hunter F.6 as I felt I was lacking earlier versions of this aircraft. To go with this I just won a Wolfpack Hunter F.1/2/4/5 conversion set.

Two orders from the BIG H arrived as well.

1 x 1/72 Special Hobby SH 72415 Vautour IIB "French Jet Bomber" which is for my Israeli collection

1 x 1/72 Model Alliance Decals MA-72136 Senior Service Hawker Hunters. I have a Hunter F.6 earmarked to be a G.11 and a T.7 that is to become a T.8M and needed decals for them both.

1 x 1/72 Quickboost QB 72 655 F-4 Phantom II Cockpit Dorsal Part. The bit behind the canopies and the long straight spine of the F-4

1 x 1/72 Flightpath Hawker Hunter Access Ladder & FOD guard set

1 x 1/72 Aircraft In Miniature GE72110. A single 3D printed Hunter or Harrier Crew Access Ladder

There are also three Tempests that were not delivered today despite two boxes being delivered to my neighbour at the same time and posting another box through my door. Will have a terse discussion on Friday with the sorting office.

I thought my stash was large at over 1000 at the last census, but it pales into nothingness besides OGL's, which is causing serious problems with sink holes appearing all over Northants!  :o
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

Not just Northants, but there have been reports of seismic events in Warwick's, Leicester, Rutland, Cambs', Bed's, Ox', Buck's and Linc's as well as half the other light infantry regiments in the British Army  :angel: Apparently the local office of the Government Disaster's Agency has to be informed every time there is a planned movement so as to put services on standby  ;)
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

As long as the local concentrations of styrene do not rip the tissue of time and space apart and anything disappears in black hole with a dull "Plop" sound, everything is safe.  ;)

Equally likely is the possibility of putting in so much material that unexpected items spontaneously generate within the stash.

Hmmm.. Interesting.. Do you think that could be reached by stacking the stashTM content tighter, or is it dependent on a minimum critical mass, i.e number of kits..? ;)

Apparently my stash is nudging the limit, as we had a magnitude 3.8 earthquake up here on the 6th of March. :o


The Vulcan is a nice looking kit in the box, by the way. ;)

If you guys with the huge piles just evenly distributed thru out the house/workshop/both you wouldnt have to worry that much about seismic activity dew to a even balance of the tectonic plates..its rather quite simple really . ;D
If it aint broke ,,fix it until it is .
Over kill is often very understated .
I know the voices in my head ain't real but they do come up with some great ideas.
Theres few of lifes problems that can't be solved with the proper application of a high explosive projectile .

Are we positing something similar to Terry Pratchet's L Space theories?
Something along the lines of create a stash big enough and it will distort time and space allowing access to all potential stashes across multiple universes wherein any kit which may potentially exist can be found.
S Space?

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

In which case it could be possible to wander in the highest reaches of Kits attic and reappear in the darkest part of Martins freight containers. Oook!
