I just got this, from TK Maxx, only £5.99

Has anyone done one of these before, I did a search on the forum but couldn't find anything.

I also found this at my local car boot sale, , for 20p, Brill:banana:

Gonna take the SMWBO (what does this mean by the way) back to TK Maxx tomorrow for some more kits.

SWMBO = She Who Must Be Obeyed, I believe.

On the subject of new acquisitions, I popped out for a pot of paint and came away with PM Models' intriguing "Bagdad Fury" two-seat Hawker Fury trainer which I have the option of doing in either Pakistani or Iraqi air force colours...

Nice buy Matt, hope to see some pictures of it when you do it.

When back to TK Maxx today, and convinced the GF that I needed these -

Only £14.99 and £9.99 respectively, I got the Tiger Meet planes based on Roman's brilliant build and the fact I've never built either of these planes but after seeing the decal sheet, I feel a bit subdued.

The M901A1 is for the modern armour GB/SIG build, never done one of these either.

Still, I'm so happy:clap3:

Tony.

Like the look of those Tigers Tony...

Let's hope you can keep your fingers off the modern armour should these sig/gb be voted in.
