Tony C Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 Oh bugger, logged in, had a look, put a DH9 and Felixstowe in the basket to get a price for delivery and somehow I've purchased both! How did that happen? Can I say, I was happy before I read about the sale but now I hate Wingnut Wings and I especially hate LSP, for bringing the offer to my notice, as without both, I'd have a little more money in my account instead of just a warm glow, inside of me! scvrobeson, BiggTim and fmatthews 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
is it windy yet? Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 Interesting to see what kits are discounted, and which ones are not. Also the depth of discounts on some of these kits is a pretty good indicator of what is selling well, and what the slow movers are. I noticed there was $10 off the camel but $100 of the felixstowe.

Dpgsbody55 Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 I have bought the WNW Junkers D1. It's going to be my intro kit into the world of WW1 models. I have 2 other WnW kits in my stash, but the rigging is off-putting. But I didn't buy from the sale sites, as they were more expensive. I looked at buying the D1 and the Fokker DVII as well, but with postage added, the D1 was about AUD$200 at my door, and (get this) the DVII was about AUD$450, thanks to postage from the US being in the order of $200. 'Er Indoors would have gone and I can't say I disagree. So in the end, I bought from BNA Model World instead at AUD$138 at my door. Alas they didn't have the DVII, and I can't build either right now anyway, so that's a purchase I will save for another day. It pays to shop around.

Ya I noticed that the Camels weren't even all at the same sale price. Even though they all retail for the same (80), some are on sale for only 60 and others 70.

BaldEagle Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 I'm a bit of a lightweight obviously. There only are around six in my stash (about three crates worth), and I finish about four kits a year. My problem is where to put the finished models, especially now I've got an appetite for 1/32 scale! I've no idea where the Revell He 219 is going to go when I'm done. It would be a shame to have to put them away in the garage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeanKB Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 Shocked to see the 4 new figure kits going for $69, $20 off - and only recently launched? Having said that, I think it confirms my general belief that the overlap between aeroplane models and figure painting is pretty small. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Griewski Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 The figures are quite nice. I just might try painting one. If I cannot get the face correct then I will just add a helmet with a visor.. Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scvrobeson Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 My will keeps wavering. I've got the Fe.2 in my cart, along with the post-war Bristol, but still haven't gotten them. Money is tight, so really shouldn't. Yeah, it's a fantastic deal, but I'll just have to live with the kits I've got. Easier that way that building more stash.

Pup7309 Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 With ya bro! I think some re-sellers will buy at this price but for collectors with enough in the stash it’s another story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fmatthews Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 (edited) I had to pick up a DH.2 and the Eindeckers were so cheap at $49, I couldn’t say no. i had coincidentally bought the Duelling set (no box) with those off eBay for a little more the day before the sale was announced, but when it arrived, it was missing the entire Dh.2 and 1/2 of the E III. Needless to say, I got a refund and applied it on these two. Edited April 16, 2019 by fmatthews scvrobeson 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
