They don't come round often that's for sure. The little shop in Hook does themed displays, usually around the Remembrance week and I scored a bag of models once for £17.50. I sold the kits I didn't want and doubled my money! I dropped in today because of the recent D-Day anniversary but this was the only model kit they had. To be honest, F-14's don't really light my fire because of the paint scheme and masses of decals but this is the high-viz paint scheme so it might get to see the light of day.

glad you like them,Tommy,Joe, and batcode,, i did have a good day out ,need to do it more i think,

New from the Model Expo in Australia Swap and sell. An Eduard 1:48 F6F-3 Hellcat with all it's extras (masks, large decal scheme choice & PE) and the nicely detailed Tamiya 1:72 de Havilland Mosquito. Also bought some eduard aftermarket PE. Very happy with these purchases as I spent like $45 for these on total

I just completed this kit, the one with the blue fin. You'll enjoy building it.
