Got my hands on my Japo Fw190D part 2, finally.... long slow boat ride from the Czech Republic...$105 bucks, heard today it was selling elsewhere in Oz for up to $200!!! now thats a bit rich! and one of the 1/32 Snake Stuka's from 21st century toys..... this should be a fun build...nice and cheap too!!

| G'day Jason! try the following: 2008 Squadron - Your Online Hobby Shop: Mail Order Military Scale Plastic Models and Books List of 1/72 scale Clear-Vax canopy sets Under the Falcon Clear Vax name it comes as apart of their 1/72 scale Set No.18: Imperial Japanese Naval Air Force, World War II (part 1). It is actually designed for the Hasegawa kit, but should fit the Academy kit just fine. Under the Squadron Canopies name, the same Falcon canopies are sold as individual subjects (two canopies per set) As for my latest purchases, I decided to see what was about, hoping to get an Academy Tempest and P-40M/N, and to my amazement they were both there! (and now safely at home in my cupboard ) |

| I can only suggest a D-9 or a 109 being a Luftwaffe man...one or both would look good next to your A-7....so start makin' some room!!

| The new tamiya 162 looks nice with complete engine! however its only 1/48, too small for catch!

| I can see you'll be busy, mate! is that Revell Spitfire Mk.22/24 a reboxing of the Matchbox kit? ..And Alex, I read in your first post about the Italeri Hudson. It's a reboxing of the MPM kit, as is their Wellington kit. (I've got both) |

| Wow, you've got a lot there Almeida! And at the guys who gave me suggestions: Wayne: I have D-9 already, and my parents aren't too keen on me getting more of the same model. A4K: My brother just got that one, there was only one in the city that I could find. However, a 109 would be cool.
