I've just received this lovely little tow truck from Italy. Reasonably priced and very nicely detailed.

That looks nice; what's the postage cost like?
Best wishes

~4.30euros so as I said pretty good value. They also have a RAF GPU as well as loads of US ground equipment.

Just added to the stssh. Valom B45c Tornado. For those not familiar with it it is a 1940's bomber developed at the end of WW2.

All the best.

My happy acquisition from Modelkraft in Milton Keynes last weekend.

I've been after one of these for the right price for quite a while so when I saw this one the trader nearly lost an arm :-D

Now, if I can find some time to build it........ :roll:

A BMW R100RS, oh joy, I didn't know MB ever made a kit of the bike. I recall riding one belonging to a friend back in the 80's, quite a quirky but fun experience compared to the Japanese bikes I was used to!

You don't see the MB R100 very often. It's a shame as these make an interesting variation on the (admittedly brilliant) bike kits offered by Japanese manufacturers.

More cheap steam engins for the stash, the School's class kit had a full set of brass wheels that will improve its looks.

Two more into the stash. Frog, possibly re-pops but has some of the original boxes. Baltimore and Maryland. Both from one bid on evilbay. Came with some drawings and one? Aeroclub engine.

All the best.

I just got the Esoteric NAF-13 Grumman F2F-1 "Flying Barrel", which is a tiny li'l thing in 1/72 but looks very nice and may just come out to play shortly.
