My stash just grew again. (2022)

[Gondor]

Rescued an eBay purchase from the local sorting office this morning

1 x 1/72 Airfix 03021 S.A.330 Puma (The one with the intake filters) I already had a Whirlybird detail set, just needed the right version to hang the bits from.

Just had delivered, at 18:40 on a Sunday, a Royal Mail parcle!

Contents were one ebay win of

1 x 1/72 Italeri B-57G Night Hawk which will replace the stalled aircraft in my stash which is due to be whiffed as I made a bit of a mess of it as it was intended

On a SUNDAY?! 

Strewth, what will they do next, deliver First Class mail the next day?

I was surprised as well! Not complaining about it though

Unexpectedly got hands on a Matchbox 1:72 Lysander and a KP 1:72 Tempest Mk. V. The Lysander will probably be converted into "something different" and the Tempest might end up in bright colors as a RCAF post-war reserve unit machine.

I picked up a few kits at Perth last week. I did a small tour of SE Scotland during my week off, visiting Stirling Castle and the Museum of Flight along the way.

On their way from BNA:

1 x Kinetic Models 1/48 Grumman EA-6B Prowler (KI-K48022)
1 x Trumpeter Models 1/35 AT-T Artillery Prime Mover (TR 09501)

Plus parts that were missing from a Czech made resin figures set.

Due to the postage time & the cost to the manufacturer to send the parts (approx. AU$65) they sourced the parts from their stock. I assume the manufacturer will supply them with a replacement for the parts/set as part of a later order but it was a nice piece of customer service that is in line with every time I've had any issue when purchasing from them (this is the third issue of any sort I've ever had).

Just one of the reasons I keep buying (too much) from them.

BNA are very good.  I get all my impulse purchases from them.

Just received from eBay

1 x 1/72 AZ Models Let K-60 "Brigadyr" Military Version, AZ 7209

I may do this as a real world build as it's rather obscure so hardly anyone will know what it is.

On further investigation I have found that the Aircraft was built by Aero as the L-60 Brigadýr. Maybe I should do it in U.N.I.T. markings?

Oh, well played, sir!

Go on, then - you know we're all madly cheering you on from the sidelines!

Agreed Guy and Fred..BNA are a good bunch and im trying to save for the things i have in my cart there  but i keep buying other stuff ..like today ..
Like 127 The Combat Tanks Collection books..they come with model tanks in this series..theres only 120 in total but i included the 7 which are doubles of some the other booklets...all for $20nz.
1 x Lindberg line value pack which has the ME262 and JU 87 and this is the funny part..theres printed writing on the inside of the wings date stamped 2015 ..these models are far older than that and they are really old molds with exposed detail and the fit is crap..the kicker is the excellent Cartograf decals dated 2016..scored brand new at my price of $25nz..only want the 262s engines 
The rest of the bits ??..well ya never know 

[Steel Penguin]

Gondor   the answer is indeed "Yes"  so many times.. 

and when any one asks, well all solomly keep straight faces  and spin the story....

Received a package from the BIG yellow H today

1 x 1/72 KORA CSD 7236; DH.82 Floatplane conversion set.  This is not going on a DH.82. I like the look of this a lot so I may at some point buy another set to go on the DH.82 I have in the stash, or another purchase.

From Hannants (postage is almost acceptable if I keep to flat stuff that can be sent as a large letter) transfers and canopy masks.  Or, according to the customs declaration (which I read out of professional interest) decals and bumper stickers.

Ju-52 transfers are for the Logistics GB.  The captured example on the front (Libyan Clipper) was flown by the RAAF.  I want to put those markings and paint job on something else.
P plates are for the Harpy.

I have ordered another Hornby 00 gauge clockwork train set, yes it's play worn and one of the wagons is missing a set of wheels but it's the track that I'm after.
Superglue and putty/filler ordered as well, a Peco Ho/00 Set Plans Layout booklet.
