My stash just grew again 2024

Hmm.  Just been watching Stranger Things season 1, tempted to find one and build it in Hawkins Power and Light livery...

If you just want the Chevy van then look for a kit without the boat and trailer to save money.  It's been released plenty of times.

Or, look for the Revell Chevy Van.  It's a better kit and is the short wheelbase version which I prefer.  Hard to find though.

Cheers Fred.  I'll keep a lookout, it might go well next to the ESCI/Italeri Transit Mk.2 I've got.

Unexpectedly won a Roden 1:72 S.E. 5a at ev!lbay, for just EUR 6,-. Made an accidental bid and forgot about it...

Tamiyas top of the line nippers as well ..plus much more

I should add that both those builds are modified - the blue one more so.
There is also a 1/25 long wheelbase Dodge van by MPC.

A very cool plastic file 😎

Why would anyone want a file made out of plastic 

Won't the teeth lose their edge quickly?

This lot finally arrived yesterday, after much trauma on my part;

From Hannants in the UK;

1 x ICM 1/48 Martin B-26B Marauder WWII American Bomber (ICM48320) - Now I have to buy the HK B-25! Not sure if I should get a 1/48 Wellington or a Mosquito bomber to represent the British against that pair.
1 x MiniArt 1/35 U.S. Army G7105 4'...4 1,5 t Panel Delivery Truck (MT35405) - Not sure if I'll do it military or civilian, we'll see when it happens.
