  1. A few years ago I went to a conference at the Venetian/ Sands centre in Vegas. Breakfast consisted of around 5000 of us............never again......
  2. Thanks for the post Martin..........these guys are awesome, I reckon b#### of steel to do what they do.....
  3. Carl, stunning pics, thanks..........Oshkosh is on the bucket list...... I must go to Flying Legends again...........if ever you guys are the UK in July this event is a must. It’s hosted at Imperial War Museum Duxford.........have been maybe four times but never enough ........ https://www.flyinglegends.com/
  4. Thanks James, great review. WNW never fail to impress and astound....
  5. Makes me want to start Ships Camel, looking stunning Mike......
  6. I opened the box about 6 years ago and did the wheel wells, but then packed it up again. I think at the time I lacked the confidence to do it justice. Now I think, yeah why not. My other thought is to use the Brassin on the Tamiya if it fits and enhances the kit. Also have the Master barrels already............thinking......
  7. Looking stunning Ernie, thought about the transport box to the show yet ?...........
  8. Me to John.........you’d make baby sing if they did.........
  9. This is the boxing I have, Let’s see what Tamiya have added.........really looking forward to have a new moulding of a 38..........how long ago was the Monogram one?
  10. I’ve still got the the Academy P38 with the Eduard, I’ve opened the box many times but the plastic looks awful. Now Mr Tamiya is rumoured I’m just wondering.......will the Eduard goodies fit the Tamiya???????????
  11. Stunning Rick, going to get back to mine once I’ve finished the ongoing GB. Did you have to grind a lot to fit the tub, I did unfortunately.,,,,,,
  12. Thanks Martin, it’s my first GB and enjoying it.....
  13. They look gorgeous, dare I ask if they’d ever do them 1/48. I’m not sure if I’d ever get to do a 1/32 Lanc.
  14. Thanks Mike, for plastic track links they don’t look to bad. Would have loved to added Fruil’s but they are pretty much the same cost as the kit.......
  15. Day off so some bench time. Periscopes before, folded and then fitted. Also the RB barrel.......
  16. Amazing research sluggo, just makes you think that for years we have been guided perhaps incorrectly on schemes from this era........you ought to drop this into hints and tips section.......
  17. The wish list just keeps getting longer and longer .........and the years reducing........
  18. Did we see any pics of the u/c.......this is going to be a heavy bird.......looking mighty fine.....
  19. Just looked up the max kerb quoted weight of the MX5 - 1137 kg or 2506 lb..........
  20. Don’t talk to me about pump prices.........we are at £1.27 litre that’s 2.07 CAD.........don’t get me wrong about big blocks I’d love an E Type V12..............
  21. Wow, just thought Corvette or similar equals big engine equals low mpg.......learn something everyday........
  22. That’s good news, having built the Marder the Archer really interests me as an allied equivalent. Wish someone would update the Priest........
  23. Thanks Rob, the tracks are straight of the box Tamiya, so pleased they weren’t rubber bands. For plastic tracks I am happy with the way they look prior to weathering them up. I intend doing the tri tone on the hull, wish me luck.......not sure why Tamiya went away from individual tracks........cost probably..
  24. You guys and BIG blocks..............my MX is averaging 40 mpg ( yep we still use gallons for mpg over here and litres for fuel) how mad is that.........what would a 302 average let alone Mr Mazda’s 50-50 weight distribution.......just a question
