One to build in flight, as I prefer these days. And, one to build with all the panels off, there’s so much lovely detail to display, I couldn’t decide between the two configurations. Pete I say go for it. I’m already in for 3, 1 Day Fighter Temperate Scheme, 1 Desert Scheme and then a big Pink FR.IX later on down the road. I am very much in trouble when/if the other Marks are released. Shoggz, Jim Barry, Smokeyforgothispassword and 2 others 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Boogaloo Posted November 29, 2022 Share Posted November 29, 2022 How come guys in the USA have theirs (what with shipping,customs etc) but Hannants ( I believe the U.K.s biggest model shop?) STILL don't have the Spit in stock? Seems odd. Not that I'm jealous. Much! Blue Skies! Captain Boogaloo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shoggz Posted November 29, 2022 Share Posted November 29, 2022 1 hour ago, geedubelyer said: Have you got yours Shoggz? Yep - arrived yesterday. Still waiting for the Hannants one (obviously) and the one I ordered direct from Airfix for the poster though. For the Airfix one, dpd seem to be stuck in groundhog day - every morning I get an e-mail saying it is due today, then by evening it hasn't appeared and is being 'awaited from the supplier'. Next morning, I go through the same cycle. Very strange. Have alerted Airfix customer services, so hopefully they can sort for me. (dpd don't seem to have any way of contacting them directly. ) Still, at least I have one to fondle! I want to do an early and a late in British markings and an 'exotic' one - either the French or American version - haven't decided yet!

It's on the waaaaay! I assume they didn't get enough to cover all back orders - mine is still in back order and showing out of stock. I'm guessing they went by date order for when the back order was placed. Never mind, it keeps my money in my bank account for a bit longer and therefore grows massively on the back of the interest they pay. Oh, hang on, that bit is a different reality, so no kit and no big interest payout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got one on order from them as I couldn't wait for them to be shipped here, but I didn't place that order until last month, so I'm not expecting mine this side of Christmas. This Christmas, that is.. Cheers, Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
