Thanks! I have one more coming (I couldn't resist!). It's the last kit of the year coming next week.

My local Hobby Store has a crazy "Buy 1 get ?" deal going. Get the LA-5 and the rest come with.
Wife got me a 1/144 F-14 with flight deck for Christmas.

Don, is that the old (late 1960's) Hurricane kit, or a new tool ?
If it's the old kit, although basically the correct shape etc, it needs a lot of work.

Great scores guys!
My latest, all 1:72 of course.

Eduard # SS263: Bf 109G-14 (for Academy kit)
Model Alliance (ex Hawkeye Models) # A-7204: Kaman SH-2F Seasprite (resin + RNZN decals, for Airfix kit)
Rapt with this, been looking for it for the last 8 years or so!

It's the old! I got it to possibly kit bash the new kit!

Ah, the new Revell Mk.IIb.
From memory, there's not much in the old kit that can be used for kit-bashing - the cannons can be improved, although aftermarket examples would be better, and the wheels are not very good at all. The wing does have the breech cover blisters though.

I'm thinking about surgical removal of the breach blisters and ejector ports on the bottom. The kit isn't worth much else. If I do this I'll get master gun barrels and turn the IIB in a C. That's the thought anyway.

Sounds like a plan.
I built the original kit as a "sort of" Mk1 around 30 years ago, changing the prop, deleting the cannons and bulges etc, and a couple of years back started on another one, again as a Mk.1, using a nose conversion kit, resin exhausts, prop, wheels and cockpit - I must finish it someday !!
