Just got these off ebay:

According to the Plastruct website, these sell at £9.65 per pack of 6 figures. Don't waste your money folks! They're not particularly good quality with huge mould seams and very basic detail.

I'm not complaining. I got two packs of 6 figures for 99p + £2.50 P&P. I can live with that.

Chinook hobby west.Normally they're pretty good and I have no problems, only when that one older guy is manning the till... (may be close to retirement )

Ah, I know exactly who you mean... I rarely go in Chinook these days, they have a pretty meagre selection of kits but they do still have a good range of paints and tools.

A friend in Arizona just sent me this as a gift:

I love the old Matchbox kits. This will be in a Canadian scheme.

Actually if you haven't been there lately, it's probably worth checking out. They have recently overhauled the shop and have added a new selection of kits. And they have made more of an attempt at organizing them too, so you don't have to wander all over the shop looking for "that one..."

Well Dave, now that I have sold both kidneys, a lung and my liver and bought one I bet that Airfix pop one out as a surprise in the run of the year!

Nice one Kresten. The Hobby Boss Tornado isn't as bad as the "experts" say. It has its issues, but it builds well and looks like a Tornado.

Just mind it dont melt in that heat you have over there at the moment! 44 degrees C....damn.

Hi all. Unfortunately, I "had" to go to my local model emporium to pick up a birthday present and some supplies, and while in there spied this. Another kit that I didn't know existed, and a nice addition to the aerobatic teams shelf, so had to be bought !!

Cheers, Neil
