WOW!!! What a find!
Tell me you bought the whole box and not just took a picture?

I', not a "steampunker" but I love the whole mythical sphere around it and the amazing artwork some create!
Yep! Not....the box is mine ;)
The bought was more surprising ....they ask me how many "spoons" I wanted....
I asked for three :p

Got another Tamiya german motorcycle kit coming from them too, this one arrived in 3 days so hopefully the Tamiya kit will come by the weekend or Monday at the latest.

Also bought this off another seller View attachment 287576
Was a little bit smaller than I imagined but is a nice little ready made diorama base for £7

Got the notification today that three of my eBay scale models from China had arrived. Only snag was that they arrived about three weeks ago and the were already sent back... :mad:
We've had such a major problem with out post here in Sweden since the Danish PostNord took over a couple of years ago that many businesses go bankrupt simply because they don't give a toss about delivering the mail as they should!

I've filed an online complaint (after being thrown out of the post office for being "too vocal") and I've contacted the sellers with a request to resend them and bill me for the shipping costs.

Maybe I shouldn't do scale modelling as a hobby? There are some pretty dark signs saying something... sigh.

I don't know how many letters, bills and packages I've lost the last two years. Funnily all the advertisements seems to find their way into my mailbox every damn day?! :mad:

A cup of tea perhaps...
 
My latest addition to the stash all checked and verified 150 part edition U96 only took 3 years to collect

It certainly was a long collection time. My last editions came a few weeks back.

I see you also collected the binders which if i do a similar collection i will not bother with.

I filed all of my magazines and you can get them all into 3 binders leaving 4 that will never be used :-(

I only got 3 Binders so hopefully thats enough for the job after the model is built

It will be. You can get all of the build instructions in one, the history section in the second and in the third the smaller sections such as famous captain, the history of various subs.

Nice collection you have yourself there.

I like the look of that airfix boulton paul you have. Saving my "pennies" as i would really like to get the Walrus when it hits the shops.

Will be interested to an in box review of your new phantom as that is a model brand i am not familiar with.

I got notification that the Airfix Walrus is in their warehouse, so I might not be too long until they are in the shops.
