Airfix Calalogue

[Guest]

Hello dsamuel

We had a thread about that programme some time ago which was interesting the sad part I thought, was/is all the rescued molds maybe it would have been better if they didn't have them and new kits would have to be produced not old.

Unless they can be repaired so the major flaws can be addressed

Bunker quote-

'At the end of the day though when did you last see a Japanese/Chinese model of a bedford Refeuler, a Churchill Bridge Layer or a Landrover Ambulance? We really don't want to loose a home grown company such as Airfix that knows the UK market and is prepared to produce models that appeal to us specifically'

Careful Bunk.....they are watching....you'll be giving them ideas!

PS. The Bedford link takes me to sunny Spain. Not only are your posts interesting, informative, and helpful....you also get a free holiday......HOOORAAAH!

I can't wait to see the new Mossie though.

I remember that little Churchill Bridge layer! It's all coming back to me now! I really enjoyed those little 1/72 vehicles, very small but you could cram a lot of them into a little diorama on a shelf and still had enough detailed bits to make a nice model out of.

Has rose tinted memories of those kits!

That's true, I used to think the Airfix Short Stirling was a huge kit after my normal Saturday evening offerrings of Spits, 109's and Mustangs etc.. ...and to come equipped with a bomb tractor wow!

Shaun The Sheep, really cooel! I did hear that there was going to be a release of the Dr. Who "Titanic" though I'm not sure if that was Airfix.

But you gotta love the Shaun The Sheep stuff and not forgetting the 48th Canberras.
