Can anyone tell me what vehicles and figures in 1/72 scale are or have been available? I know Airfix made The Chieftain and Saracen. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Also did Revell make 1/72 paratroopers circa 80's

Thanks Dave I thought it might be the Monogram kit. Pity it isn't a new mold, would have been nice.

The Revel F4J is this a new kit? How accurate is it. Want to do a 74 squadron aircraft. Thanks for the help!

My Victor's arrived yesterday and the wife took the box from the postie and told me I have to wait until Christmas. Boo Hoo!

I live in Canada so it won't arrive here until late Jan or Feb, so I ordered mine from Hannants. Waiting for the email telling me they are on the way. Will build one in white and one in camo.to go with my Valiants and Vulcans by Airfix..

Just got mine today. Boy this is big and has several nice etched sheets included. This will take some time to build and do justice to. Have to go to my local hobby shop and get some supplies. Now where did I leave my HMS Ark Royal books?

Just got my notification that mine is on the way from Hannants, it will probably take a week or so before I can check it out. Will be watching for the etched set for this baby. It is cheaper from Hannants than my local Hobby store can sell. All the way to Toronto Canada, Go figure.

Don't worry everybody. The government will do what they have done with so much of the national defense. They will just outsource it.

What about the Hastings Bristol Britannia Tristar VC 10

Received my notification from Hannants, so I can expect it early Jan. Looking froward to it and the Har3 this spring. Hope the HC4 has the folding rotors as shown on the HAR3 on Airfix's website.

The problem with this one is it will be too expensive being a limited run. That is why I have added it to my list.

My list would include Ark Royal IV Eagle (50's or 60's) Intrepid County Class (70's or 82) HMS Antrim Leander Type 42 Type 22 Hermes 2 versions

Everything depends on how you intend to display it? I would at least do the cockpit.

There are several good add-ons for this kit. Airwaves have brass sets for the air brakes, wing fold detail, cockpit. Flightpath have a quite expensive set for details and weapons. Pavla have a cockpit replacement. Eduard have sets for both the interior and exterior Model Alliance have several decal sheets Heritage Aviation have S1 intakes, S2 Intakes, Recce pod.

Where did you get this info from? it's not on their website.

I would say yes as yours is probably more accurate and better detailed. Offering it as a package would be good. I would buy it.

Should I wait until the Trumpeter kit arrives or buy the Zvezda kit?

Just got mine from Hannants. Is it just mine but I have NO clear parts. The instructions show there should be parts but the pic on the box doesn't show this part.

They have quite a large selection of RN ships in both 1/350 & 1/700. The only problem is the price.

I guess this is going to take you a day or two. Look forward to seeing your progress with it. Good luck.

Nice Lynx are you going to do the FAA version?

That would be around $210 Cdn plus shipping, so lets say $250. Will have to think about this.

Nice job.

Does anyone know approximately what the cost is going to be for the 1/350 County Class?

(in fact I think some would quite happily buy dog turds so long as they were British and came in an Airfix box, such is the fanaticism ) When did these go on sale, they are not available in Canada yet. Is it the prop version or the new jet one with all the stores? I hate living in the colonies, I miss all the great deals. LOL Graham
