PM Spitfire wings are great for making almost anything, except a Spitfire... ;D

Oh yes , another vintage Matchbox kit .
My own is a bit crispy and tends to break at some parts, need to be a bit careful when cutting ...

I am interested to see the jet conversion of the 190 ! 
Where are all these crappy PM parts from ?
 I also got a Full box of that stuff , gifted from someone .
That plastic is very soft .
It's a Land Rover, NOT a Jeep . Like a Jeep, but for gentlemen.

This should be quite cool 😎 👌 👍 😀
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 .

Simple conversions sometimes get some great results 👍
These I think will be no different 😃

Interesting... :thumbsup:

Now this had got me thinking: I wonder how many radial engine/circular radiator front ends are the same diameter as MiG-9/15/17/19 intakes... :wacko:

Yes.  Apparently Lewis Carroll was inspired by them while writing Through the Looking Glass... :mellow:

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

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

And they said the advent of the jet engine would be the end of the 'dogfight' because speeds would be so high that the combatants wouldn't be able to turn tight enough to get close to each other.

Pah!
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! :)
