Actually got to make some kit purchases the other day - had to wait an absolute age to get them from Hannants in the UK.

The Zero looks fun and have absolutely no idea how I will go with the Sally vacform kit. Reviews are not inspiring but given my late father has a historical link to a captured Sally I really wanted to build one. Seems vacform is the only way to go in 1/48 (and maybe even 1/72). Wish me luck!!!
 
Actually in 1/72 scale there are two non-vac options at least. Revell and MPM, neither, I read, have gotten it quite right. Shame.
Interesting! Might have to take a look at either one of these as well. The 1/48 vac version is going to be a huge challenge - not to mention too big for me to store on show anywhere. If I think I can get at least a decent representation of the real thing with either I may go down that path as well. Many thanks!
 
Not just models. Every now and then some tool.. pen blade to make stencils and camouflage
Bead pen, good for taking small pieces
And panel engraver

Thanks Wayne. Been wanting to get an early-ish Zero for quite a while but they seem to sell out here in Oz so very quickly. Might be asking you for advice on colours and markings at some point if that's ok. I know pretty much nothing about Japanese aircraft so both builds will be a learning experience.
Happy to help, just ask anytime....
