Not yet Ian. There is still the Fw190 A5 Priller, Fw190 D9 Rudel, Fw190 D9 Barkenhorn etc etc etc lol :)
 
Finally got my two IMAI Japanese submarines: 'Maracott' and 'Flipper'. These are 1990 issues and are rather rare. There is a third in the set that is very rare...cannot get hold of that one :( A original 1967 issue of 'Flipper' sells for around £70!

These are powered subs and have a rubber band prop, although these will not be going in the bath...:rolleyes:

Some pictures of them.

Si:)

Great stuff Si are you doing two separate dios or one big one?This is what I picked up this morning for a spitfire dio View attachment 77067View attachment 77068Looks pretty straight forward it says it's 1/76 scale but the figures look more like 1/72

I just need an RAF fire engine and an ambulance now and I'm set to go :)

Not sure Alan, will have to think about it. Looks good, with the tender and Austin ambulance it should be a great dio.

My better half got me this for valentines day :) View attachment 77185View attachment 77186Not a very detailed kit but the only one I could get and it will fit in nicely with my British Cold War jets collection

Kit also comes with a tanker and engineering crew so a little dio will be on the cards for this ,

Nice looking kit Al, should make up into a super plane and on a sit alone or dio board will look tops.

Thanks mate unfortunatly this is a lindburg kit so is about as detailed as a paper aeroplane lol, it has raised panel lines , no breaker between the intakes , figures have more flash than david beckham and the tanker looks like a poundland special lol , but i will present it well and do a bit of scratching to improve it :)
 
Can you score the panel lines or is that beyond this kit? I am sure you will get it looking superb, one way or the other-if you can get that pig of a build you made looking great then this should be a piece of cake.

Im not too happy trying to score the panel lines and tbh they are not that big so i was thinking of just adding a little wash not very dark and dry brushing them ever so slightly so you can faintly see a bit of detail or ill just dry brush without the wash :)
 
Doing them as Australian Airlines Peter?.

Ian M
 
That's a good haul Peter, particularly at that price

Got this recently on eBay, I've been on the lookout for one at a reasonable price for a while.

Another unusual scooter kit, this one a resin item from PlusModel. I like the look of the black and yellow checked version...

Never heard of or seen one of these before, look forward to seeing it built eventually.
