Wow I thought I was a virtual cornucopia, a plethora of usual trivial pursuit knowledge. But you my freind have way to much time on your hands. But it is good club knowledge. I have filed it away for future refference.

By this time tomorrow I shall have gained either a pearage or Westminster Abbey........Nelson

HAHAHAHA

I havnt seen a Big johnson shirt since the late 80's!

"The power to Destroy the planet, is insignifigant to the power of the Air Force----Mudd Vader

Grabbed this today, €20 ($26) but it is friggin' huge! Note it's got '354 TFW' written on it! Much more realistic than the Cobra Rattler, although it does still have an upper gun turrent with a 50 cal on it! Can you get these in the States??

They have it here, too.<img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>

So, you have trouble. We all have trouble. Build a bridge and get over it.

I have that model, in both the gray and green schemes. Really nice detail, looks good on the desk at work.

Cheers! M2

Roger that, especially at the price!<img src=icon_smile_approve.gif border=0 align=middle>

I picked up one of these at Duxford last Friday, reduced to £8 ($16)...

<img src="http://images.kbtoys.com/g/toys/hires/141062.jpg" border=0>

1:72 scale, needs some touch-up paint (white and black in the appropriate areas), but nice detail and large (about a foot long), and I always loved that noseart!

KB Toys has them for $12.99 at http://www.kbtoys.com/genProduct.html/P ... stock/Y/D/

Cheers! M2

Madmax, Did you go see "the Fighter Collection" at Duxford?

I went through every hanger at Duxford, was a heck of a great day! It was the first time I had been back since 1983, when I was at Bentwaters.

Oooooooh man, that is too cool. 162! Aah, the memories.
Why can't they have cool stuff like that in the BX here?

Without ME, it's just AWESO

JackB, knew you'd like that one since you used to crew her. OBTW, it was't actualy in the BX it was from one of the venders out front and the reason you can't get stuff like that there is because it's way to friggin cold...

Try eBay, that's where I got 79-0162 and 79-0174 (now at DM, but the model has England AFB markings on it, and is green). 162 shouldn't be too hard to find, 174 a little harder. They are definitely a step above the Maisto and other diecast models out there for the same price!

Cheers! M2

Dice,
I've got a bid in on EBay for one of those laser crystal Hawgs. Did you want 2?? I'll just have them shipped to you and you can send me a check...

ATTACK!!!!!!!

Warthog30, yes I will take two, we can put one in the display case at the SPO...thanks for your help!

Ugly But Well Hung

Just so you know, there are 3 colored LED's in the base. Red, orange and blue. It rotates through the colors every couple of seconds. A little creative soldering and a few bits from the local Radio Shack, and mine is Blue all the time.

Thanks for the tip Growler, I think NIVS green would be nice.

Ugly But Well Hung

And hey, if the USAF ever decides that manned turret is a good idea, SIGN ME UP AND STRAP ME IN!! The ride would be worth the windburn!!<img src=icon_smile_blush.gif border=0 align=middle> <img src=newicons/bounce.gif border=0 align=middle>

RAF Duxford ? Is that where the famous slate wall is that all the Battle of Britain pilots signed their names during the war and now the wall is covered with glass ? These were the best of the best; Bobby Tuck (may the grace and blessing of Allmighty God be upon him), Douglas bader, Sailor Malan, Paddy Finucane, JoHnny Johnson etc etc etc.<img src=newicons/anim_bow.gif border=0 align=middle>
