Well would you believe it ! I got myself yet another Lancaster model
this one is a little different though, it's made from brass comes on a stand and
is 'banked' over also has a nice RAF badge on the stand, its just a bit smaller
than an 1/72nd lanc, all this for £5 and that included the postage, found on ebay.

Bargin or what

Nice one Ian ! I was given a similar one a year or so ago, roughly 1/72nd scale, but it doesn't have the badge though, although it has got movable props, and it's bl**dy heavy!!

Great for holding down the lid of the scanner when scanning books!! I think mine weighs around 3 or 4 Kilos, heavy enough in a relatively small package.

I was thinking the same as conkerking in that you could probably use it as a weapon against home invasion

you need aBf 110 C version now my friend to build the kit that the bullets belongs to
glad they arrived safely and the vest part was that you liked them

its from the first fighter to be shoot down over Norway in teh first dogfight in norways history..all took place the morning of 9th april 1940

bf 110 C-0 was shhot sown by a gloster gladiator flown by Lt.Tradin

but if you clean them with some weaponoil and brass shine they look like new
and the links could use some oil to clean and preserve
