after all this time looking, and being jealus of everyone else I actually found a bargain in a charity shopis all complete and still on the sprues, decals are perfect and not touched all for £3.99 a bargin I think lol

This kit is £32 in my local hobby shop.So you've got a real bargain.

Finally arrived today.

As I am experiencing some problems with my Schnellboote electronics, and gone a bit stagnant with Atomic Annie

.

I saw this on the net and bought it on a whim.

I had forgotten just how small 1/72 can be, and think I may have bitten off more than I can chew.

Lots of PE, several resin parts and parts to construct it as a solid model if required.

Included are a couple of forming tools for the PE parts.

Plus a very detailed 8 page instruction book.

Just thinking an appointment with specsavers may be required

Okay, don't start the Kiwi sheep jokes but that does sounds interesting! And a helicopter, prepare for lots of tiny pieces.

Is this the one with dropping bombs, retracting undercarriage etc., I remember from being a lad?

It is indeed that one! And it's rivet heaven - clearly Monogram thought the Mustang was built like the SS Great Britain!

Thanks monica, it won't be appearing on the bench until I've done my WRC Fiesta, SU-152, and my Panther II......

But it will be part of a nice little dio I've had in mind for a while
