I hadn't seen them for a long time either! I seem to remember bringing them along to a club meeting a long time ago.....but maybe not!

Lovely work. Thanks for sharing.

[Graham T 1,010]

Great builds & conversions.  The old Matchbox NF14 scrubs up pretty well shapewise I always think!

[woody37 8,322]

Great collection nicely built

[F-32 3,347]

Beautiful work, really impressive

[Alpha Delta 210 4,110]

Wonderful collection, beautifully photographed!

[robgizlu 2,648]

Absolute stunners and really nicely finished

The Matchbox kit has turned out particularly well

A beautiful collection of Meatboxes from a time when there weren't many decent kits of the type. There's some great conversion and re-scribing work on display here. Thankfully, for me at least, it is a lot easier to build a Meteor these days.

Superb looking group of Meteors, I really like the 54 and 1 Sqn aircraft

[binbrook87 679]

Fantastic... all of them... but that T7 is pretty special. You would never guess it's the old frog kit. Great work

[RMCS 3,814]

Awsome

Very nice Meteor shower..... loving the 25sqn Meatbox, they flew from RAF Waterbeach back in the day.

What a superb collection. 

[Adam Poultney 1,612]

Like me and my Spitfires, 109s and soon Vulcans. Very very nice! 

Got an Airfix 1/48 one almost finished. 

[cngaero 1,336]

Now that's what I call a Meteor shower!

Every single one is a stunner, although I do admit to having a soft spot for both the T7 and the NF14 types.

Thank you for them all here.

The dayglo was good old Humbrol Fire Orange, applied over firstly white, then a coat of matt orange before the dayglo.

Lovely crop of Meteors. Hard to choose a favourite! Well done.
