        Stash update!
        Righto, got into the cupboard to look in more boxes. I've catalogued another two small and one large box. Bear in mind these were up in my parent's loft for many years, so many are not in great condition. I haven't been able to check if they're all complete, but I believe most are, unless otherwise noted.
        I've also found there are five large boxes, not four as I thought previously. It appears I have more than I thought!

        Small box #1:

          And just to give you all an idea, here's box #1 partially unpacked! I could build for a lifetime, and still not be finished, so I'll probably let some of these go at some point:

                The last box (there were just four. The bottom one is an old Arcam amp box, empty), holds some planes and stuff. I haven't catalogued those. They hold little interest for me, other than the 1/32 Messerschmidt I'll build one day...

                    Last but not least, I've heard that some of the old Frog models are collectable, and could be valuable? Anyone got any idea about this lot?:

                        Hi Dale
                        If you aren’t thinking of building all of these, you have some collectible stuff there, obviously depending upon condition.
                        That Kitmaster Crocodile, for example, is quite collectible. If you sold it on the money could go a long way to funding a modern kit of your choice…..
                        Some of the Airfix stuff looks to be in early boxes as well, so could be sought after, especially the grandstand.
                        Dont know about Frog, except that it stands for “Flies right off the ground”…..

                            Thank you Tim. Google is probably my friend here, but I thought the collective knowledge of thousands of modellers could save me time and effort. Appreciate your help mate.

Now to find time and motivation! Hoping being here will help. Very impressed with the quality of the builds and work I've seen so far. That's about it. Oh. 51. M. Suffolk. Do I need to add that?
