Do the moulds still exist after their 're-work' to an AC-130? The last issue was an Italeri re-box.. regards

Anyone else watching on Youtube? 3 episodes so far. Lockdown does have some benefits it would appear. Regards

I say a little prayer each night hoping someone will take up Mr Adams' mantle, but we'll see. (I know there's the Air Graphics set, but no front mudguards included). Regards

Ah! those Aeroclub wheels...... (pictures courtesy of 'Joes Models.com').

The MicroMir T17 came after the initial S&M B2/T4 releases. The T17 and the S&M B6, contain the revised sprues with the 'more accurate' early wheels and revised wing tip tanks. The original main wheels are also included. As mentioned above the later releases of the AMP T11 also contain the revised sprues. My AMP T11 has the same sprues as the original S&M B2/T4. Regards

There are some test shots of the LM F-35B courtesy of ipmsdeutschland.de http://www.ipmsdeutschland.de/Ausstellungen/Nuernberg2020/Bilder_AT/index.html Regards

Just looking at those sprue shots on the Italeri web page: https://www.italeri.com/en/product/2854 The clear parts appear to be those of a Sea Harrier, not a GR1/GR3. In fact, all three latest releases 1435,1410 & 1401 all show the incorrect canopy. 1278 & 1329 show the correct canopies. It remains to be seen as to what's in the box. Regards

I've just noticed that this is now showing as in stock on the Airfix website. https://www.airfix.com/uk-en/shop/aircraft/military-aircraft/mcdonnell-douglas-fg-1-phantom-raf-1-72.html Regards

.... and that PCB Harrier is rotting away outside the Helicopter museum at Weston. Very sad.. Rob

A quick trawl on Ebay finds these.

.... and it's the same price as the recent P-8/E-7 kits. Regards

Definite interest, it's just that the Welsh models kits come with Draw decals supplied. The RAAF kit decals, for example, are sold separately for $15 + p&p, so my thought was if the goodly people at Welsh models do release an RAF version (why wouldn't they?), in all probability it would be supplied with the set you brought to our attention. We'll see. Regards

oooh! A bit steep at just over £30 ($39) delivered to the UK. Will wait to see if Welsh Models re-issue their kit with an RAF option. Rob
