How's this for a bargain?
from The Works.
They had other titles like the buccaneer but I'm not into jets.

They have some good books at great prices!

I got the infantry one a few weeks ago - our branch had quite a few other titles in stock but I already have them (at considerably higher prices - typical)


Postie delivered these this morning:


50% discount - damaged box. The end panels have been stapled together to keep it box shaped


50% discount as supposedly damaged packaging - looks like new to me


50% discount - box end flap slightly torn


35% discount


I also got these from my sister and brother in law for my birthday

Happy Birthday Mr. T.

Been thinking on how to display my Wellington bust. I looked at wooden plinths, but I wanted something plain, and in a neutral colour, so the bust draws the attention, not the base! - anyway postie delivered these a moment ago.......................

Solid resin plinths, ready to be drilled & sprayed. I sourced them from Model Display Products in Newport, Gwent. Reasonable price, fast service - well worth a look!

Hanslope Andrew? I was there, we should have arranged a meet. There didn't seem to be as many traders there as usual. I only bought a book about the BBMF, and a few aftermarket bits.

No, I'm not about to rip the seat out of my F-16 Hornet, but that Quickboost seat is gorgeous, so I had to have it! The seller kindly knocked a few quid off.

Well another trip to Hobbycraft for SWMBO s stock and I'll tell you, those shelves are really dodgy!... this fell in to my hands...


Just need to get the right colour for it now... any suggestions chaps?

The real ones in Oman were painted with white paint into which red and perhaps a little black had been added by whoever was responsible for painting them, so basically: pick a pink you like, or better yet, mix your own until you feel it looks right.

Thanks Jakko, something to think about

The positive side of this is that you can’t really go wrong

Suggest on your next visit your have a word with the Hobbycraft management and point out how unstable their shelving is. It a serious health and safety issue after all...... At least your wallet!

Andrew, I'll just stop the Mrs going in there, that'll be a massive financial gain... for both us! :smiling5:
