I like the idea of a stash for variety. And I can pick whatever I have next... instead of driving 40 minutes to the nearest hobby shop

Some nice buys thwere chaps!
Keith, you got a great deal there mate, and that '110 is the same kit I did, courtesy of Jan, for the Defence of the Reich GB. Nice kit overall, but watch the decals, they tend to break up, especially the smaller stencils etc.

Love the P-40 Tiger, how about a Free French Sqn in North Africa about 1943?

For my birthday..... my aunt, not knowing how long shipping would take, sent me the Stug III and Opel Blitz. For my birthday I asked for a whole bunch of stuff and a couple models of aircraft in 1/48, so we'll see how that goes

For sure I know I am getting an airbrush

NICE stash Degs!

Trebor, my mother was just talking today about regulaly flying home from London on an Aer Lingus Constellation in the 60's, it used to take 90 mins! I wouldn't mind building a model of it.


(From SPAR Home Page)

Vic do you know if those decals for the french P-40 are available??
