Too bad it will be a while....could have started a mini GB!   Still, I may start mine soon, since I do not know what I am going to build next.

Nice haul and Happy Birthday!   That Hasegawa 109 will build up nicely and you only need about 1-square foot of space to display it- they look great hanging on the wall.

Thanks. Chris, i think it will be some challenge especially as i am used to monoplanes. The only bi-plane i have built was a swordfish many years ago. I will deffinatly be posting pics when i build it, probably early in the new year.

Hutch, it will be a while before i build the 109. I haven't built a 32nd kit yet, just been building up a small stash. My main issue now is display space, i am running out for the kits i am building. Once i solve that, i want to get some 32nd built. I reckon the 109 will be a couple of years away yet.

I haven't decided when I will build mine.  I am almost finished with my 1:32 P-51B and was looking to do the 109 in a winter scheme.  I may just make this my next project....when do you plan on starting yours?

Happy Birthday Bish!

Looks like a great haul - the WWI looks great, but would be waaaaay out of my comfort zone too!  I hope you post some WIP pics of it.

Nice pick up on the 109 too.

Sub, its a nice looking kit. It might even convince me to do other WW1 aircraft.

Ripcord, if you are useing the new PB, i would suggest switching back to the old. The new one is a pain in the butt. Look forward to seweing the pics, and the tip about the armour is noted.

Photobucket has just had a MAJOR overhaul. That could be the problem?

Happy birthday!  CakeGift  I am currently working on that HMS Victorious.  I sanded off the armor plating on the hull per the FSM crew saying the scale is too small to notice and it shouldnt be there.  Its been a few months ..year... and im still on the first few steps.  I will post pictures when photobucket is working.  I really wish I knew why PB isnt working for me.

Thanks guys. Watchmen, no doubt it will be over your side of the pond very soon. I don't think its been out very long over here.

Hutch, my 32nd stash is juts a small select number of German aircraft, as i don't want to deflect from 72nd. So this is the last of 3 109's i am getting and i wanted this for the Marseille markings. I think i will do the Sept 42 aircraft when i get round to it. Any idea when you will do yours.

It's a re-release.  According to VintageAirfix.com, it was first issue was in 1985.

I've been waiting over a year since I heard it was coming back.

Excited! Smile

You luck dog, Bish!  You got an 0/400!  I've been waiting for sooo long until the re-release. :)  I just put one on Pre-order today at my not-so LHS.  They aren't available in the US yet.

Very nice haul, gratz!
