Hobbycraft (UK) Black Friday Heads-Up

[MikeC]

Sorry it's a bit belated, I only just found it out, but if anyone wants a Revell Spitfire Mk IX, a Revell 1970s F4U-1 or a Special Hobby X-1 in a Revell box, they are in Hobbycraft and on their website for half-price.  Just picked up a Spitfire myself, it would have been rude not to.

My pleasure Iain

Yes, it was the X-1 not X-15:  now corrected in my post. 

Put it down to a Senior Moment.

 

Perhaps I should also mention that there are other discounted kits available in other scales.

Well, the mention of X-15 piqued my interest as I didn't think Revell had ever re-boxed that. But that made me *have* to go and take a look and I've walked away with 2 kits I didn't realise I wanted! 

 

Just dug out the two X-1 projects I started almost 20 years ago and wasn't overly happy with progress on - with Cutting Edge Decals and X-1E conversion/decals.

 

At that money I can restart afresh, or make more schemes.

 

Not sure how well the decals will have lasted in the loft though...
