Simply type in 1:35 resin and a whole host of goodies comes up, some post to the UK, there is a guy on there now selling the same type of resin wheels( 3x sets) Maßstab 1 35 | eBay 26 mins left.

This ones an early Christmas present, I can't start it on pain of death, it will in fact be wrapped up. Couldn't resist this one as it's from Hannants with a 3rd off and while I was there I also got the Eduard Masks and Mastercasters weighted wheels.

Dude its going to be a real long wait for Christmas for you this year Vaughan! I didn't even know they did one in that scale! Nice one.

Ian Having seen this bird at the shuttleworth collection earlier in the year and then flying at Seething Air show I just had to have one. I too didn't realise it came in this scale so jumped at the chance. It's got a white metal tail wheel and wire to support the under carriage. I'm looking forward to building it but have to wait till Christmas unfortunately.

Just got these from a local charity shop....

...the Revell eurocopter was £1.95, and the Nove Bleriot XI was only 50p! The Novo kits I'd never heard of before, so a quick look on ebay reveals they sell for about a tenner with postage (not that I'd sell it!!!) so its a bit of a bargain

Cheers, Andrew

[yak face]

Nice buys, the ennterprise was a real bargain john , and Ian, the Hawk looks a superb bit of kit, well worth £20. The skyhawk was a bargain too, i reckon the guy who said it was a rough copy of the Italeri/ ESCI tool was way off, the old ESCI had raised panel lines and this has very nice recessed ones , plus it just doesnt look like an old moulding (the ESCI tool would be about 30 year old ) tony

Another bargain from Modelzone at £38 I took advantage of their 20% discount online only the first 300 orders would get this discount and then it dropped to 15%.

I got this from our model show last month, I was pleased with it till I found out I'm missing 3 paratroopers and their chutes !, all cut from the sprues so I will be looking for the suppliers table for a quiet word
