Egad, did your wife buy you that battery powered tape measure??? Mine did. I hadn't the heart to tell her it was a useless DOG!!!!

Yep. I bet 99% of those things are sold to well-meaning wives.

But my son loves to play with it.

Yup, my wife is a doll when it comes to everything but power tools. I have hinted so many times for her to just do a gift card or something and not buy me anything resembling a tool. But what a great heart she has.

Wayne, in your post (#670) the very picture of the FW190 and the car are the subject of a Hasegawa kit. I found this today in the latest Squadron flyer.

Oh I do know what you mean, I'm glad airfix tends to keep the original box art on re releases.

Hi guys,

Yep it is nice purchase because it is one of cheaper Academy kit. Unfortunately it is a plastic scrap .There is a lot of mistakes that are difficult to correct.But for a training of modelling it can be.
109ROAMING if you want a nice early P-40 model, look around the Trumpeter 1/72 scale kit.

You'r welcome Daniel.Be careful of the wings, especially the upper halves of this.You have to fit it to the transition the fuselage-wing becuse these halves are too long and there is a need to remove some plastic from the area.If you won't do it the model will be looking like a man with his shoulders down.
