The last arivales at my stash.

That's insane!  That's half my stash...almost!

[adt70hk]

My name is Andrew.....

...yep you can guess where this going!! 

In most cases no major bargains this time but I did get some minor discounts on some of these.

The one exception are the paints and Airfix Spit...thanks to a shop voucher, a £16 purchase cost only £11!

Oh and see if you can spot the outlier in what's below!

It's funny I'm not into jets and the more modern they get, the less I like....not that is in the least bit modern....but there is something I like about the Thunderbolt.  There is a slight downside with this one in that there are no munitions but, the next best which had them was more than I was willing to pay.

Went and check out some used book store around town and picked these two up.

[stikpusher]

Mike that PB4Y book looks quite interesting.... another undersung area of WWII history...

Well, yesterday after AMPS here, it was the monthly visit to Andy's where I picked up these items



The Egyptian and Syrian Sands will come in handy on some future projects, and one can never have enough Value Gear...

[keavdog]

Impressed that that's all you came home with. He has a lot of nice kits on the shelves.

Nice one! Good to see I'm not the only person to acquire an A-10 in the post week!

[keavdog]

Nice Tony! I've got that one and it's a beautifully molded kit done unlike anything before it.

Just amazing.

[keavdog]

Been working on this 1/48 Hobby Boss F8F-2 and she's been ready for paint and decals for a week or so



Came in today   I'm doing yellow C103. Great color splash on an otherwise monochromatic scheme and the stars and bars don't have the red stripe which I found interesting.



And yes - that is blue (couldn't tell by the cap!)

[keavdog]

Also got these today to backdate my 1/48 SH-3 SeaKing to "Old 66" Apollo recovery bird. I have the decals already

Belcher bits sponsons and radome

Wow, what awesome acquisitions guys!

The First of June I got to go to the San Diego Model Expo and with the help of a friend, I got these excellent additions.

First, in the raffle, I won these tools:



I also got this mini display, perfect for my small scale:



After that, I picked up these three Grand Prizes:







These are the purchases I was able to get with leftover Easter money from friends and the help of another friend who came with me to the show:

First are these ancient "planes on a stick" that were first issued in the 1960's. There';s no interior or landing gear; they sit on a stand. These are both 1/72 scale as well:

:



Next is this ancient Eidai 1/72 scale kit of the Cessna 172. I got this since my brother learned to fly in one of these:



Even though I already have one of these, I couldn't pass this up. I looked inside and there are two complete kits inside; and the seller had no idea and only charged me for one! Deal!



Another great score from the same guy:


'
Finally, I saw this and just had to have it:




And that is all I got at the San Diego Model Expo. I'm so thrilled! Looks like I'll be busy for a few days.....

[keavdog]

👏👏 Nice haul!

A very nice and varied haul!

[jeaton01]

Duke, I gotto go check my stash! Except for the 172 all those kits you bought are there. I sold one of the 727's last year for near $200 and still have another. Hoping some 3d printed engines come around for it, the resin engines in the kit are too small. A quick scan and print would fix that!

Just preordered the Eduard Royal Class 1/72 P-51 Dual Combo. I've procrastinated with the Royal Class boxing enough and finally broke down and did it
