discussion Latest acquisitions

[Guest]

Just got a 1/48 Tamiya He 219A-7 Uhu with an eduard superdetail set.


A great kit, with an integrated nose weight. This is my favourite Nachtjager

It's alright getting a lot of kit building done and ready to start the VW Samba conversion, I thought I had better stock up on these.


Thanks go again to my main man dealer John at Scale Model Shop.  I am trying to accrue enough loyalty points to get a free H&S Evolution 2in1  9_9

Thought I would post my latest purchase, the quick ones amongst you will spot it's a 1:1 Focus ST500. Not exactly a model but after posting my latest models and no intetest I thought I would go a little larger > 


The end of next week I'll post pics of my new workspace and all the goodies I have bought so far.

A bit too clean for me, it needs a bit of weathering Adrian.

looks like a st225 to me.

 

[Adrian "Marvel" Reynolds]

Nope it's the ST 500. It's the swansong for that shape, they only produced 500 only in black with the stripes and full red leather Recaro interior. As of when I bought it only 420 were still listed on the DVLA site  

 

[Paul Davies]

there nice cars I got the focus 225 st3 love the recaro seats in it. Take it to superchips get it remapped to 275 you wont regret it.


unfortunately for the people that got them new the only difference is the colour of the seats and stripes.

Not exactly a model, but a piece of aviation history, as I just bought the autograph of Gunther Rall of the Luftwaffe, the 3rd Highest Scoring Fighter Ace in History. 


The pic is a standard sample from the seller, as my autograph is still coming in the post from the UK.


Will be doing a build soon of JG 52, his unit and his own aircraft in a few months time

Just purchased the Fly 1/32 Ar 234. It is still in the post, due to the "internet pic" but looks to be a fantastic kit, with massive stores of resin and a large PE sheet in the box.

That must be pretty big in 1/32 Ian. Looking forward to seeing more of this one

It is huge, but pretty expensive (about the same price of the Tamiya 1/32 Spitfire Mk IX. This is the only ar 234 in 1/32 which is partly why I bought the fly ar 234 to go with my trumpy 1/32 Me 262 to create a collection of 1/32 luftwaffe jets. All I need now is a horten, an He 162 and an Me 163 to complete it in 1/32, and all of them are around in mainstream production
