But for a very good cause, and IMO very worthy of some jealousy! Here's my stepdaughter with her brand-new (as of 11/24) baby girl Grandma and I are appropriately elated to welcome grandkid #1 to the family... While I'm not building anything right now while staying at their place, I did discover that there's a great LHS (Wings and Wheels) literally walking distance away in the new neighborhood that daughter and son-in-law moved to here in Toronto (near Danforth and Coxwell, for any locals reading). Could not help myself and bought a 1/32 Special Hobby kit there yesterday...;-) Just saw this! Congratulations and enjoy your time in Toronto! Yup, very deserving of jealousy! What a lovely gift for this time of year. That's a wonderful area of Toronto, lots of great eating just down Danforth too. And yes, Wheels and Wings is an amazing almost overwhelming place! Like Carl says, it's worth the drive, even for me in Kingston two+ hours away. Again, hope you've enjoyed your time with your family!

Dave Williams Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 Ukraine decals for the Tan Model 1/24 TB2 drone. The kit has been OOP for a while, but DACO reissued the kit with additional markings for the Ukrainian TB2. I have the original Tan Model boxing with only Turkish decals, but didn’t want buy another kit, and pay high shipping to get it over here from the EU, since it doesn’t seem available from the common US sources. Fortunately, Danny was selling just the decal sheet, which I ordered and it arrived today. jeroen_R90S, chukw, Phantom2 and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beside some paints, thinner and glue I've got just this: The pilot is made by Zebrano from Belorussia. Nice little dude (just 1/35 scale) having a smoking break. Should look fine next to a Regia Aeronautica aircraft. The tractor was used by the German Luftwaffe to haul trailers and other stuff like this. This model was made before the war and in the early years, but a number survived the whole war and went into civilian use after the war too. Looks nice, with some PE, clear parts and the option for a roof, but it lacks painting instructions and decals. Would have been nice to have some dials and some license plates in the box. Regards - dutik Never realised some did a model of this! My old camper vans (I had 2) were a 1968 Hanomag F45, and after that a 1971 Hanomag-Henschel F45 (somewhat larger wheel base, more internal space) so I've always had kind of a weak spot for the Hanomag brand and it's history. They produced a lot of different things, from agricultural to innovative but unsuccessful trucks, cars, locomotives, etc. Even a diesel-powered record race car. And of course guns and half-tracks Now someone needs to do the SS55 (ST55 post-war) to complete the trio, as the SS100/ST100 is there already. http://kfzderwehrmacht.de/Homepage_english/Motor_Vehicles/Germany/Hanomag/Hanomag_SS_55/hanomag_ss_55.html Edited December 21, 2022 by jeroen_R90S dutik and Uncarina 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
panzerrob Posted December 24, 2022 Share Posted December 24, 2022 Hi all, My latest purchase: 1 question: is there a set of ejectionseats + crew available for the Revell F15? I would like to display the F15 in a flight display. With regards, Rob P.S.

denders Posted December 25, 2022 Share Posted December 25, 2022 (edited) I picked this up several weeks ago, but the wife decided to claim it for a Christmas gift. It was a 'damaged box' from SB. I'm aware that there are some shortcomings, so I'll have to slowly work on acquiring some AM for it. Edit: Wow, I've never looked in one of these F-4 kits before. I realize this is an older Tamiya product, but I'm inpressed. Edited December 26, 2022 by denders TankBuster, Alex, Ayovan and 6 others 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
