I wanted to enter but won't be - too many other things to take care of.
Are you looking for info on codes and serials old boy, or decals?
If decals, then Dull Red codes are at Hannant's, and if they still have stock, the 'Tally Ho' serial number decals, in black or Dull Red.
If it's examples of serial numbers and codes info, let me know which unit(s) and I'll see what I can cross reference.
The Wing and Idroped in, picked her up, everyone in the hobby shop was glad to see it go to a good home its been in the shop for at least 2-3 years being pulled up, down, arranged around.
Upon opening it, it looks like a ZM kit. It has some great details, 2 Jumo Engines, gun bay detail!!! and even some frame work I think looking at it initially in the un-boxing you could even do a 2 wings off model to display the frame near the wing.
Really impressed with this Dragon offering, the canopy is pristine too, no scratches she'll get futured soon enough but I wraped her up in tissue for now so it wont get scratched. Usually when I receive their kits the canopys are scratched to bits.
Very happy with the kit
Yeeeessssss...!!!
Found this! RAAF P-38 Lightning (PR) Conversion
Now, should fall for the trick and buy the Academy P-38F or use this Minicraft P-38E? I know that F-4's were rebuilt E's, but...you know..Which is the better kit and seeing that the conversion is for the Academy 'F...
Decisions....decisions...
Great stuff guys.
*May* enter this yet, but not plastic...
Have an Eduard 'Strip down' Fi 156 Storch in 1:72 (mostly PE), which would be the first kit of it's kind to be seen in the forum yet. Tempting for it's individuality.
OK....... We have a winner.
After a (very!) long postal wait from Canada to Australia, my Glencoe Grumman Duck arrived. The box says 1/48, the instructions say 1/52, so I'm not too sure exactly just yet
It's a J2F-A, VMS-3 Virgin Islands. The Duck in the Planes of Fame Museum is in the same markings, but that is a J2F-6.
Build will be out of box, in the beginners section. In the pack, it doesn't look like an amazing kit, but the detail is workable.
