Have I missed something?  Day three is a video about the 1:72 Sea King and there's no product announcement of a B-26 I can find.


I think the “Flak Bait” line was just a joke. I saw the funny side of it.

I've just looked at the Airfix advent calendar, and then moved on to the Guardian website, and lo and behold on the Guardian's home page I have an advert for Airfix!

 

the advert was for an oak tree (HO scale) and the Cutty Sark.

 

now this is on my kindle, where I don't have an ad blocker, and in all honesty if I look at websites like the Guardian's I tend not to notice the occasional ads, but this one from Airfix - within a few minutes of looking at the advent calendar certainly stood out!

You've missed the point.

 

it's because we are a bunch of old men we complain.

 

It's what old men do.

Well, apparently you don't have long to wait - there's a countdown ticker on Day 5 that ends at 7am my time, 2pm UK, today....... Very odd. 

 

EDIT: Never mind - it just clicked over to another 24 hour countdown. Weird.

At least this old man knows that it's "a" virtual advent calendar and not "an".

Today (9th) could there be a reveal in the background of the video Paramjit and a B17 . Airfix are going for a certain demographic by issuing a model/puppet of Muffin the Mule.

Just looked back and watched the quick build of the Audi. Finished it looks quite impressive.  With some careful painting etc to the insides and out plus any desired detail, I reckon it could pass off as a very good model.  As for todays, the B-17 Paramjit is displaying looks to be well made.

I'm hoping we get a model of the Stearman Santa Solution that serves as the background image!

I read through the terms and conditions and didn't see the normal "only residents of the UK are eligible to enter" disclaimer...
