Folks Mike, Roy and myself will be tending to the stand throughout the weekend so please do feel free to come over and say hello. within reason if we can accommodate, bags and purchases can be left at the stand rather than carry them around. If you are lucky you may even get some of the purchases back! Seriously, do come and say hello after all its YOUR stand too. Kev, iv'e printed a few extra flyers out to act as handouts on the stand.

Throwing hat in, how about "(set budget) group build" a reasonable budget is set eg £50 retail price is set and a kit up to that price purchased or extracted from the stash and built. I dunno just a suggestion.

I get the whole 32 / 35 debate and as others have said each to their own but when it comes to some quality control issues attention to detail is everything. I also accept this is one review.

especially if you get the randomly boxed special edition pilot figure, one of which is depicted as dead!

WOW simply jaw dropping work. I love the wood effect on the Mosquito and the weathering on the typhoon beggars belief! -
RAF Cosford museum model room / Lancaster display
Phartycr0c replied to Phartycr0c's topic in General Discussion
Cant miss it its by the new Lancaster display! Maru, I'm not entirely sure. I spoke to Elvington about the Lancaster display but unfortunately they couldn't take it. The other models have been claimed by their owners and i believe Spencer Pollard had a few there. There were a large number of FAA aircraft there so Yeovilton may be interested? -
For anyone who may of seen or is aware of the Lancaster display in the model room at RAF Cosford Following a decision to replace the long standing model room with a "reflection room" (whatever that will be) the hunt was on to identify an alternative location for the display. Approaches were made to a large list of possible places including BBMF, East Kirby, Bomber Command Association, AVRO Heritage Centre, various squadron associations and mainly due to the size/ lack of interest, finding a new home was becoming difficult as time was becoming of the essence. As of yesterday, this was the sorrowful sight at Cosford after hosting a modelling room for over 50 or more years the models precious wartime artifacts and hand built cabinets are to be removed. An exhibit with 100% footfall, not only was it popular but it was inspirational Spencer pollard had some of his builds on display together with many large scale scratch built exhibits, the builders of which have sadly passed. I am however really pleased to say that through the Polish Heritage Flight at Duxford I was put in contact with Squadron Leader John Sharpe RAF retd at the Boscombe Down Aviation Collection who on hearing from the PHF and seeing my appeal tweet, made contact as Boscombe Down are currently building a Lancaster cockpit replica with which the display in Johns words "will be perfect". Commence operation Lancaster Liberation and as a result the display now sits safely in the custody of the really enthusiastic workers and volunteers at Boscombe Down Aviation Heritage Museum. So, the display, as intended, continues to provide an interest in a public setting, together with an educational and hopefully inspirational element. Many thanks to Derek Rusling at the Polish heritage flight together with John Sharpe of Boscombe Down Aviation Collection and especially Simon "Sully" Thomasson (Sullys scale models), who built the majority of the lovely vehicles on the display and Peter Maxwell who fashioned the figures that bring this display to life. I know I've rambled but to say I am pleased is an understatement!

Thanks for taking the time to do the review Iain. Although the subject has little interest for me, it seems to be an improvement on the helldiver which by all accounts was far from a replacement for the resin version. Perhaps it is this aspect that has goaded Infinity into cancelling the 410, which would have been up there on my list, because the standard has been set in resin as it were. The Vampire should sell well as its a popular subject all over. I do hope that infinity dont become another "kitty Hawk" so to speak.
