I do recall the cartoon figure (Hagar the terrible) which I watched as a young lad...

Think I will go for that scheme when I build my kit

Think it was Hagar the Horrible?

Ran as a strip in one of the UK papers for years but can't remember which. Used to have a sneaky read on my paper round!

From memory the artist was almost blind.

37378: The tail is not NMF on this plane, it is gray.

 

37304 Belonged to 2 company at F17 Kallinge, but still marked as F21-01, Luleå.

In June 2000 the plane had the fin painted purple with the cartoon Hagbard, (Hagar the Horrible). 
Hagar the Horrible is the symbol of the 2nd Company.
The plane was scrapped around augusti-september 2001. 
The fore body is/was used for fire and rescue training.

look at that. Every other picture of a changed tail i have seen is grey. My misstake, sorry. 

Yes, there are many grey tails, you are right with that. F4-38, however, happily has a metallic one that offers a great combination for us modelers.

Just received an email from DM who  are happy to dispatch a batch of sets to an address outside the UK fo subsequent distribution. :D

 

So if we can have an accurate number of recipients we can put together an order.

 

Landrotten, If your happy to use your parents address, we can split the postage cost. which may save a few quid.

There seems to be an increasing number of vendors/ suppliers who are refusing to ship to the UK. Seems to be a HMRC VAT procedure which puts the onus on the supplier to do HMRC's calculations/payments. Hopefully, in time, this will be resolved !

I see the future.

End of year reviews will show a whole bunch of purple tailed Viggens ready for inspection.
