Scale Model Shop

Latest Acquisitions (2021)

Still very tempted but my models wish list is quite long too....
Remember Andrew, you’ll build a model once, but you’ll use these every time you build a model. Like all good tools, when well looked after they should last a lifetime…..

Indeed!!! If you can just explain that to my bank account and SWMBO whilst I stand at a safe distance I'll be most grateful!! ;)
 
Blimey....; they both look well cool!!:thumb2:.... The Pilot type chap AND the "Monster"!!
I looked them up earlier.... the price you got these for is simply.... erm.... AMAZING!!:dizzy::thumb2:

Sorry Andy my post may have been interpreted wrongly. It was £30 all together including the P&P which was £9.50 to get half way around the world.
 
This arrived today from Plaza in Japan. It took 13 days to arrive at a cost of £9.50 P&P. Unbelievable!! Plus there was a nice little thank you figure included. This is my first foray into the world of Sci Fi. Really looking forward to adding something to this to make it stand out from the many others found on the tinternet.



Great breakaway build Steve loads of colour choice skys the limit all down to your imagination now. Built similar longtime ago wasn't Maschinen Krieger (Hasegawa) though on the old mm site in my usual scared of the wrong side of the bed fashion did it panzer grey. I have got a Maschinen Krieger one (diffrent type) started a long time ago (probably felt to far out of my comfort zone)in the stash somewhere the answer is no but were see . I purchased mine at the Salisbury model show from the chap that owns a model shop in Salisbury he gets them in stock sometimes for thoes that fancy Google model shops in Salisbury I think he's the only one ,plus for thoes that fancy a go and are going ,Telford usualy shows up quite a few not cheap but considering what Steve paid postage it evens its self out. Sorry Steve prattled on again enjoy this im sure we will. Dave
 
Salisbury model shop is now the only one. It is located on Fisherton street about half way between the clock tower and the railway station on the same side of the road as the clock tower. It is a good shop, with plenty of variety on show. There used to be another one, Endless models, situated in Endless street, but it unfortunately closed a few years ago when the proprietor died.

Been after this vehicle for ages. I was looking for the Italeri offering but couldn't find one anywhere. Not normally a fan of Reville but it did come with the Eduard etch and a metal barrel. Looking forward to starting this.

By 'eck Steve that's a bit out of your comfort zone. I'll enjoy seeing how you get on.

I was watching this one mark , just out of curiosity . You got a bargain . Ive got the SMER boxing of this tooling ( originally released by Kopro ) and a resin cockpit and flare dispensers . I also got some polish decals and intend doing it in the two tone grey polish scheme

Not sure what scheme i'll do yet,probably one of the Soviet, one with the easiest camo lol. Need to get a few more under my belt before starting this but if it's half has good as what I'm sure yours will be ill be happy :thumb2:

Scottie,
It is, in fact the Italeri model - Revell did a reboxing in 2006.............

Hi guys

So some arrivals this week.

Reinforcements for Junior's Brit recon elements and some new soldiers, the Airfix ones I have really are not very good and according to the Plastic Soldier Review site these are supposedly the best at this scale. I'll do some of the M3A3's as turretless jalopy versions

The M3A3s were my first order from China via AliExpress - only 14 days dead on. Actually a very good experience as Dave pointed out a couple of weeks ago. Very good tracking and as he pointed out they operate an escrow service, so your payment isn't released until you confirm you're happy with the order. All in all very impressed.

I'm blaming the Tank Museum for these two.......in short I've ordered an updated reprint of a David Fletcher book, which should have arrived this month. However, it been delayed due to circumstances outside their control and so they have gave a 15% discount to everyone affected.....it would have been rude not to take advantage. Six kits, seven different possible versions at £6.50 per kit!!

I only need one of the Valetines for what I have in mind so I might a couple of vignettes with the other two....they even come with Russian commander........hear that John, a Russian commander!!!

Those M3A3s are really nice kits. I built a platoon of them some years ago, and made them in such a way that I could also use them as Stuart Recces, with a rudimentary interior.

That's exactly what I'm going to do - probably with three out of the four. If you've got any pic I'd be interested just to see how you did it.]
