My stash just grew again. (2022)

[Gondor]

A package from Keiv arrived today.

2 x 1/72 Resikit Gloster Meteor Wheel Set (RS72-0266) for the two Xtrakit Meteor kits I have in the stash

1 x 1/72 Resikit B-57 Canberra type 1 wheel set (RS72-0117) to be used on a Canberra, obviously, I just can't remember which one

Box of random junk arrived today.  Got this cheap on eBay and bid on it because it looked like a treasure chest of detailing parts for some starship kit bashing.

A TON of warship PE and resin detail sets, mostly 1/350 along with a whole lot of 1/350 ship/airwing decals and a handful of 1/24 race car decals.  Some interesting possibilities here, and it has me itching to bash together a starship.

1 x 1/72 Xtradecal EE/BAC Lightning F. Mks. 1 & 2

Received today from Modellbau Koenig... the price was good and i've wanted the Eduard Mustang for quite some time so i finally bit the bullet and got one... the RS P-51H came along because he's family...

I be thinking your gonna enjoy ya self with this Eduard Mustang Doggu mate ..they are pretty damn good from everything ive read.
I want the Eduard propak Mig21 ..its a GOD DAMN!!! sort of kit and all the goodies ya get with it is amazing considering its not a mental price yet it is here or course $160+ nz ..so hopefully one day 

[DogfighterZen]

Yep, i know how that goes... It was the same with the Tamiya F-14D, over 100€ on every shop... I got lucky and found a shop doing a promotion, selling them for 85€... I knew it would be hard to find another one for that price anytime soon so i got it then and there.

That Eduard Mustang offers some really nice colour schemes and I'm tempted to get it just for those, even though it is 1/48  .

From a model shop in Poland a whiffy Modelcollect 1:72 E-50 tank with a Rheintochter SAM launch pad on top. Nutty in itself, but not to be built OOB, rather intended as a donor bank or other conversions.

Received from Howes Models today

7 x 15ml RailMatch paint bottles.

610 LMS Crimson Lake
613 LMS Stock Roof Grey

402, 403, 405, 412 & 415 RailMatch Enamel Weathering Pack.

Unfortunately I received two of the 402's and no 403 so a picture has been sent to Howes Models along with a copy of the order.

That Eduard Mustang offers some really nice colour schemes and I'm tempted to get it just for those, even though it is 1/48  .

I got this box because it has a shark mouth in one of the schemes so, instead of buying the shark mouth in an AM decal sheet, i got the kit and the sheet came as bonus. And also because it has masks and a PE fret for the cockpit although i may end up trying Quinta Studio's 3D sets on this one.
I normally buy a few kits of my favorite planes in both in 1/48 and 1/72 and the reason for that is just detail quality. This kit has some beautiful detailing and it's the best Mustang in 1/48 so this will be built OOB... with Portuguese markings, of course. 

So, the next one was delivered yesterday but i only got it today because nobody was home to receive it so the delivery guy dropped it at the local gas station, which is also a mail pick up point and it's just a 5 minute drive from my house...



There's no such thing as "enough kits of the Viper family" in my stash...

Garnered another Airfix U-2 from eBay today. 

It's the later version with the second seat, not that I'm likely to build it like that.

Looking at these  lists together,  I rather like the idea of a Mirage 2000 C  blowing bubbles from its exhaust nozzles............I'm sure Tophe would be charmed by the thought!
