Latest Acquisitions (2026)

Happy birthday andy , nice easy kit? - I bet those those decals werent too easy ! Looks fantastic now though , the Castrol scheme is always a winner
 
This was the last kit I bought in '25, but it didn't come until '26, so if that counts...
Just had to have a RN Hunter :-)
 
WOW Peter by gum you got your moneyies worth there as all them planes were an still are my fav's even from when i was young but id be lucky to get them bought for me by my family over the whole yr as we could not afforrd much then back in the 50 .s

My wife bought me these for Christmas, used them a lot since then, they were labelled as Helping Hands.
Great for holding parts to glue and paint, magnetic bases stick well to the tin and they bend into whatever shape you need.
They came from Amazon and were listed as soldering aids, so much better than the rigid type that stick in a holed base.

I have an auction house near me that has a model kit auction every few months..... Lots of dealers after stuff but i put in some cheeky bids on a couple of lots and won 2! :D

The lot of armour has an Emhar Tadpole something ive been after for a while...... Tamiya cheiftain....... And RPM Ford model T polish armoured car

And then it got weird :p

Nichimo Sherman from mid 70s......a Renwall Lacrosse missle in 1/32......still sealed in cellophane...... New tool in the late 50s but this one a 1971 boxing........ And the weirdest of all....... A SU122 by a russian company called Ogonek....... Early 70s.....motorised with a controller and in 1/30 scale!! :rolleyes:

Second lot is 5 vac form dio bases in 1/35 & 1/76......mostly from Amera.... A company ive been wanting to try for ages....one is A3 size.. . Plus some italeri 1/72 ruins...... Plus some oo railway bridges which ive looked up and the last time you could get them they were 25 quid each..... And theres 3 of them....... And theres a model railway shop near me that buy stuff.... A visit might be in order lol........ Then there was 2 items that wasnt listed but were in the pic on the auction.....wasnt sure what they were til i got them........ First is an Airfix coastal fort in 1/76........and a Heller Tornado in 1/48 which just a repop of the Airfix Tonka..... No decals but thats a minor problem
