Latest Acquisitions (2024)

[Stefee]

I almost pulled the trigger on that one Stefan. I'll wait and see what you think of it first.

When I get back from my hols in a couple of weeks I will open the bags and let you know my thoughts.

Courtesy of John of "our" shop. Been waiting (im)patiently for this since Tamiya announced its re-issue early this year. My heart pumps battery acid for the dealers on the bay trying to sell the original release for £85.00 to £115.00 when this cost £33.00 delivered.
I had a virtually identical car ( 1600 cc single spark and no lightweight body panels ) but the same colour.

Love this stefan ! The giulia is one of the most gorgeous yet simple designs and it can only be Rosso corse . You had one of these - very jealous .

I've been building steadily in the background but not really felt like sharing them here for whatever reason. But taken a liking to 1/48 helicopters, with a Chinook waiting for paint. Managed this on a facebook auction for less than £30 delivered. Did have my eye on a Merlin too, but that went for silly money.

I was looking for a kit but came across this die cast cheap enough. '55 Chevy Nomad in 1/24 scale.

The plan is to strip it, do a bit of light customising, then a fancy paint job.

Very nice of her Lee, are you about to start a diorama ?

Yes maybe this winter I might got to get some builds out of the way first. She texted me and said pick a few Models off of Amazon for Father’s Day so I did.

This has finally arrived.


I saw it announced on Planet Figure and I was so taken with it I ordered it in advance.
What's weird is that it's not my period of interest and not my preferred scale, but I just couldn't resist it.
AND it's bloody navy blue!!
No idea when I shall start it , but it won't be any time soon.
