Here’s my oldie but probably not a goodie. I guess I’ll see what happens. I think this is Re-box of the first Airfix kit that came over on a merchant ship from England in 1940s lol

In my defence I bought the kit a few years ago!! :smiling5:Tamiya are going to do very well out of this GB
The best bit was that all the way through all we saw was the tripe hound….and at the reveal, this appeared. Absolutely loved it and still do.
Great to have you aboard Mick.
Hi Ian
I hope I'm not too late to join this GB. I don't know if there is a limit on numbers but I notice this is very popular.
I have managed to get an unstarted, but pre-owned, new 1/72 Airfix kit. If it's ok then I'd build it as an Israeli Air Force plane which hopefully won't duplicate any already established builds.
Thanks
Jim

Guys I maybe change my Choice of model I’ll post a pic of it later
Some good pictures there, have ordered a zoom colour etch cockpit set along with canopy and camo mask, a lot of good extras available but you could turn this into an expensive build if your not careful lol.
Indeed you can Mark... and I for one am heading that way :flushed: :tears-of-joy:......
..... but in my defence,i`ve always LOVED the Mosquito .... a CLASSIC aircraft :thumb2:
Andy
A classic indeed, it played an invaluable roll but its limelight was stolen by the spitfire.
Thanks Tim!!
Ok this will be the one I’ll be building not the 1/72 MPC one. I dug deep into the Lee Drennen’s Vault and found this Classic. I don’t know which option I’ll be doing yet but I did order some aftermarket decals for it. 
Some nice kits, are you all ready for the off tomorrow?
Not quite Ian, I just have to wrap up my Gladiator - just clear coats and decals left though!
