the kits i have are Italeri, meng, trumpeter and hobby boss

Hi everyone I've moved from aircraft modelling to AFV kits. I've invested in a couple of kits which all have vinyl tyres. It seems to be a very common thing to provide these now instead of making injection plastic tyres, but what on earth do you do with them? I've looked online and found horror stories about them melting the plastic of the main kit. Can anyone throw me some tips

This is really odd, as it is working for other members. Are using a Capital A in the A55107? I've just tried again and still working fine.

Can you attach a screen shot?

You haven't got something else in your basket by any chance? Make sure in the checkout under promo code A55107 it is case sensitive but worked fine for me

Yes, the discount code is A55107

Only issue is that is only an expected date, if we switch to that kit and it gets delayed we could end up with no kits for the GB. On the other note we can now purchase the kit required for the GB now, Just follow the instructions below. Discount is only applied to the Mustang kit. "Ok fair enough. Each member can just buy the kit through the site and enter their own address as per normal. https://www.jadlamracingmodels.com/airfix-a55107-mustang-p51-d-starter-size-1-72-aircraft-model-kit/ If they enter A55107 in the checkout at the end it will remove £1 to reduce the price to £8.99 as we agreed." Official date for the GB is 11 August to 23 September 2018

I've seen the 1/35 kit at a show last year and that was huge, but still, in 1/72 scale the beast looks massive. If I had somewhere to store the beast I would love to tackle it. Yours looks fantastic

it is the same kit part for part

Guys, everything is looking ok for this to go ahead, after further discussions with other people wanting to take part we are going to adjust the rules so everyone can have some fun. * Aftermarket parts will now be permitted along with aftermarket decals which were already ok * You can submit multiple builds if you wish to * This will be a six week GB and we have been given special permission to be included in the year's calendar * Hopefully there will be a sponsor related prize to the best build voted by the sponsor. * The kit that has been voted for is the Airfix 1/72 P-51D Mustang and we'll be all using this kit https://www.jadlamracingmodels.com/airfix-a55107-mustang-p51-d-starter-size-1-72-aircraft-model-kit/ which will be provided at a cost of £9 to each member who needs a kit/s. The date is to be confirmed, I will be speaking to Jadlam over the rest of the week to Iron out the purchase process for getting the kit to members needing one.

Any more takers on this one?

Ok, just updated this and at the moment I have 12 people onboard with 9 kits required. Anyone else looking to take part, please post that your in and if you require a kit

amazing, which paint did you use for the RAF sky?

I'm going to start gathering the list over the weekend of who is taking part and getting this all ready to go

looking to gather more member to confirm if they are taking part and how many peeps need the kit
