Nice scores Mark! I remember building that Airfix P-38! And the Aurora/Heller team up in the 70's. I had a few of their 1/35 items... or perhaps they were Aurora/ESCI... :hmm:

Looking forward to seeing the P-38 built Mark, I've been thinking about getting one of those myself. I'd love to help you out with the P-51Ds, but the shipping to the UK would be more than the kits are worth.

Okay I gotta ask - why do you need 100 1/72 Chairs? Do you have a lot of pilots that need to sit down? :hmm: :grin:

:hmm: Now there’s an idea… a bomber group or squadron briefing room…

Thank you guys for the awesome comments! Stuart, the P-38 is already started as you can see in my Maddog Manufacturing thread. As for the chairs, I don't know that I need 100 chairs, but that is what Jean-Marc had and that is what he sent me. Pilot briefing room came to mind too, but that DMV idea is hilarious!


Now if I can only find some 1/72 scale sloths for the DMV workers...... :giggles: :lashed:
