Evening.
Mass hysteria has broken out at Race Towers.
Why you shout. !!! I've won a auction!
Bagged myself a Hobby Boss T26 1935 for £16.inc postage. Best thing it has great write ups.View attachment 314880:smiling6::blow-kiss-2::smirk:
Forgot I had to look tonight as the auction ended.
Happy days! :smiling2::smiling2: Normally I fall at the last fence.

so being in the right place at the right time and knowing someone who knows someone else who had this lot to get rid of at a silly price.......£150 for the lot

plan is to ebay the majority, keep a few choice ones...................the car needs a new set of tyres lol

 

[Allen Dewire]

Damn Paul,

One heck of a haul for that price!!! Some really great kits and lots of memories there too!

Genuine Matchbox kits — I haven’t seen those in quite a few years.

HOW MUCH!!!!!

The 72/76 scale stuff is practically worth that on its own, so all the 35th scale is free. How come I'm never in the right place or know the right people? Woe is me!

Having seen Wotan's A-10, I wondered about the Soviet equivalent - The Sukhoi Su-25 Frogfoot. It seems that there only have been two 1/48 models - one by Monogram, which was based on a prototype, and the other by OEZ - which has been reboxed many times, KP, Smer, and not least Eduard! Postie dropped this off today...............View attachment 315054
It's hardly cutting edge technology, but it has recessed panel lines, albeit a bit soft

The plus side is the decal sheet(s), PE and precut masksView attachment 315051
I could have bought the later Su-25SM version, but that had 4 Russian finishes. This one has 4 non-Russian finishes - 1 & 2 North Korean and UkranianView attachment 315052
3 & 4 - Luhansk Peoples Republic ( with Confederate Flags (?) ), and a Czech version with what appears to be a large advert on it's tailView attachment 315053
There are a few bombs & missile pods, but I'll have to look at my other Russian planes for a bit more variety.......

H 1 & 2 North Korean and Ukranian
3 & 4 - Luhansk Peoples Republic ( with Confederate Flags (?) ),

[Mr Bowcat]

I'd be interested in the Merkava Paul, if the price is right.

Evening All,

Just did a pre-order of this puppy. Been wanting one for years and the DES resin kit was a bit too much at € 115,00 + postage...
View attachment 315521
Due for release in the beginning to middle of December for a pre-order price of € 44,50 to the door. Part 2 of the V2 project is now possible. Gotta finish Part 1 first though...…………..

Super, Dude1. Looks a great kit.
Can't come with a tank as well can it, or is that just for illustration purposes.
