You could always build that and sell on the other one Andy…..does it come with the dog, by the way?

Just finish this , so technically it is a new arrival.Saw a mention of it the other day and as had a large box to break down for the recycling thought I'd have a go .


No excuse now for figures not being done . Unfortunately have those grips with the teeth , don't seem to have damaged anything yet.

Needed some new Brushes,didn`t wanna shell out for more W&N`s ...... so i bought these.......

Not used them yet,(obviously!),but on close inspection they seem pretty promising:thinking:.....
.......Also,in lieu of the forthcoming "Spitfire" GB,i wanted some groundcrew,(Want to place the Plane on a small Dio),i already have an ICM Kit for the build,and found a well reviewed set,also by ICM,for about £10,"Bargain" thought i:thumb2:,luckily though,before i clicked to buy,i continued to browse....... and THEN i came across exactly the same set of figures,but this time they`re included with an actual Mk IX full kit:surprised: ...... and for the princely sum of £16 :dizzy:..... so,£6 for a full Spit kit!!:flushed:
Therefore,(and NO,i didn`t need the Spit),i thought,"Sod It"....... and sacrificed a few more of my Devonian Groats:blow-kiss:.........
...... ere tiz.......

The plane will probably never get built as i`m more than happy with the one i already have,but i just couldn`t resist!!:tears-of-joy:,
Andy

Got the same kit with the figs and they're good although I haven't worked on the figures. The plane I have and it was featured here I think with engine panel open.

Cheers,
Richard

Holy cardboard, Batman!! you've enough Alligators there to do a whole Company! I wouldn't be showing off too much recycle there JR.......the recycle commission will be around to fine you for the willful destruction of a perfectly good box........and then Matron will be around......(I just booted her A** out of Montana) with her attitude adjustment and rehab shot.........and well, you know the rest!

Kicked her a...? Wow! You are truly hard a... yourself Sir! Now, watch your back, check your car, tread softly and carry a big stick!

Ooh, that's harsh! She's doubtless just misunderstood ... Bad childhood, bullied in the convent perhaps?

Kicked her astobar he says…..now she’s left! When she was there it was “yes ma'am”. “No ma’am”. ”which cheek should I present ma’am”.……..we all act tough when she ain’t listening…..

Yeah, I don't even dare let out a fart when she's around...needles and straight jacket ain't nice or seeing her crackled foundation makeup up close.

Got this delivered today.

I had a wee look in the box, quality looks typical Tamiya but it may be a decal nightmare. Anyhoo, it will not be started for a while as I am about to start another model and I am off to the IOM TT for a couple of weeks on Friday.

Looking at the box art, I think decal nightmare is a distinct understatement!
