That’s a cool oldie kit. :lashed:

Drum roll please...

Got a few new decal sheets... so I had to augment my stash a little.... Got 'a' P-47 kit on that auction site, which actually contained the plastic for two kits :yahoo: save one canopy, which I know if can find in the spare box. I'm Thinking of build Butch and Ozark Queen first...

Last night I won this in the raffle at the IPMS meeting

Looks to be a real sweet kit!

That's a beautiful kit. Had it when it first came out. No idea why I sold it. Must have been in my "I can't build 1/32 kits cuz they take up too much space" phase...

1/32 109s don’t take up that much space… :whistle:

Nice score. I've read good things about that kit. And imagine 1/32! I have an old Revell 109F in the stash for a special project and the parts look HUGE!
Thanks,
John

Yes, I have the old Revell G-6 in my stash and built one while I was overseas back in ‘05. I did enjoy building that kit again after doing it as a kid back in the early 70’s.

Well it be rude to build a Iranian F-5 without a Tomcat to keep it company, so I picked up these...

And of course, I'm going to need a kit to put them on...
