My Telford haul. Another modest year.
The Puma is the ex-Matchbox kit which still looks good but a lot of flash. The decal sheet is very nice but doesn’t include a 230 sqn option for a Northern Ireland based cab.

Well I have had a very productive weekend. I have been given a 1/32 Revell Phantom. I have built one of these before and they are huge. A really impressive model. I then went to my local model shop where the owner was having a clear out of his stash and picked up a 1/48 Revell Corsair for £5 and a Hobby Boss 1/48 Wildcat for £8. Happy days.

Love the Puma Rick, it looks to have been a very good price

It will be a big unit when built, I wish someone would release a 1/48 version.

Ditto.

New arrivals at Chez Stefan.
The Lotus is my all time favourite F1 car and the Skyline will be built as 1 of the 3 1:1 I once owned.

Every year Hobbycraft send me a fiver 'reward' on my birthday...... Thought I'd better spend it... Use it or lose it lol

What I wanted they didn't have in stock, really didn't want to get a kit but I didn't want any paint supplies or brushes or anything else really

So ended up getting a kit lol....... One I've never done before even though it's a very old kit.
