Nice pickups Wayne. I have the GEORGE in 1/48 with those markings though I think I spotted a capture GEORGE somewhere. Nothing wrong with a GEORGE.

I think you may be biased though.

lots of nice stuff !

think my next purchases might be decals, gun barrels and exhaust sets for the kits i already have, though will try and squeeze a kit or two in if the Boss turns a blind eye ........!

This came in the mail today. I know it's really a Ventura, but I was swayed by the alternate title.

 

[fubar57]

What makes a Ventura a Lexington Jim?

If the US Army says so! LOL

Good stuff chaps, and Karl, you should know by now that, even if the 'Boss' does turn a blind eye, being a woman, the eyes in the back of the head will pick it up!
Just scored a double sheet of Xtradecal Medium Sea Grey code letters for £3.00, and thinking of grabbing one, or maybe two, of the old Arii (ex- Otaki) P-47 razorbacks. They're cheap, and not too bad overall, but do I really need more kits .....?
Ah, b*ll*cks, it's Christmas, and no one buys me prezzies!!

Nice hauls here.

I'm thinking the U.S. Army was doing some fine drugs on this day...

Ah, it's a bomber. Wait, no it isn't, it's a recce aircraft - or is it a recce bomber aircraft that can't be used for that role cos it's restricted, so we'll just change the name, leave a few lying around the nearest Navy yard, and then just slip away quietly, when nobody is watching ...............

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

Yeah.............................that's it.

A lot of good buys guys. I got some stuff in today but no decals yet.

 

[prem895]

woody,post a pic of that Dakota. It looks great. What scale?

Another P-47 'Razorback' for the stash, this time the old Arii (ex Otaki) kit, which came with an extra bag of spare bits and pieces, mostly Academy, and some stencil and national markings decals. Not a bad kit for its age (1970's), with engraved surface detail and reasonable cockpit, and the canopy, although one piece, is very clear and exceptionally thin. Think I'll grab another one - at a third of the price of Tamiya (best razorback in this scale) and a quarter of the price of Hasegawa (less cockpit detail than Arii or Monogram!) - it's a good way to use the decals which came with the Kagero book!
Also scored the Xtradecal MSG code letters for £3.00.
