Latest Acquisitions (2024)

Happy new year everyone.
A new year, a new thread. Please no chit chat. A single comment is acceptable. Once it starts going back and forth then it's going to get deleted. If you want to discuss a post with the OP message them!
We have our caravan on a seasonal pitch in York, they are what I took Easter bank holiday
Squirrel has brought a friend, I can’t work out why some people can’t upload images.

A few new kits, hoping these will help me get over 6 months of mojo loss.

Finally managed to get this set for an acceptable financial outlay.

First delivery of the year - an ebay win. not the cheapest, but I haven't seen this for a long time

............and it's still shrink wrapped - late 70's - I wonder where it's been for nearly 50 years?

That looks fun

[peterairfix]

A few extras for a build sometime in next few months

[Jack L]

Got the usual bit of cash from Mum and Dad for Christmas with the instructions of 'make sure you buy something you want, not something you need.'

Well I definitely don't need one of these. Popped up on Amazon for less than £100 so thought why not.

A quick and clumsy play so far and I can already tell it's going to be a game changer. Every attempt at a diorama seems to go wrong, I get frustrated, and it ends up in the bin. At least I'll be able to get the basic shapes right now.

2 ebay auction purchases arrived today

wish the box looked like this! Very battered, decals scratched <£10 delivered - and it smells very musty!

Not the cheapest buy, <£24 delivered!

One I've been looking out for quite a while
