Got these in the mail today:

These are the marking options. However, they're not in any way specified anywhere. They look like Peru, Iran, France, and UK to me (Don't quote me on this however :redface )

I'm told that the RAF Short Tucanos have some distinct differences to the original design, so the UK marking option is sort of redundant...

This one I got a couple of days ago, to support a local round-the-corner hobby/toy store:

Well, back from Telford. I feel like crap. My throat feels like razor blades and I am continuously cold. But, models!
So, what did I get. Well, surprisingly I didn't have a wish list, other than a Kinetic Harrier T2 and Airfix Walrus, if anywhere had them on offer. They didn't! Hannants had piles and piles of harriers at full price (£42.99). If they had marked them up at say, £35, they would have sold every last one....oh well. For the first time ever, I came home with money :blink:
Nothing exciting to start with....some paint.

And some rust

And some more paint. Except these were free. Why? Because I went to the Alclad stand and I said I was having problems with the various aluminium paints I had bought. Basically the carrier liquid goes through the airbrush, but not the colour. So he gave me new ones free of charge. Then I said I had come for the high speed silver. Also free. Honestly I can't praise these guys highly enough

Getting away from paint, I got a set of 1 Sqn decals for my Hunter. Actually, I got the nose badge, as the rest is useless to me.

I got a Belcher Bits Red Beard and Mk7 bucket of sunshine.

There are 3 Harrier options. One is the centenary tail, one is the Arthur Clowes memorial, and the third is a lichen green one, which I might use on my GR7.

Del, here's my previous post once more with the pictures hosted on flickr instead of Postimage. Hope you can see them now.

Got these two Tucanos in the mail on Saturday:

The marking options:

Strangely, there are no Brazilian ones. As far as I can see, they are Peru, Iran, France, and UK.

The third kit I got is this:

Hmm, quite a conservative haul from SMW 17, but looking at recent additions that's no bad thing.

The Matchbox items are in respect of my continuing quest to gather up all the armour kits. The Modelcollect kits are quite new and by a company new to the scene. I also bought some Zero paints for car projects I'd like to get under way.

I'll post up an in-box of the Modelcollect kits in due course, I think we're going to see a lot more from this company in the future and as well as a series of modern armour and 'what-if' German armour projects currently available, they also have 1/72 B-52 and B-2 kits about to be released.
