Old air fix models

Post by Davemacc 8 »

Hi. New to this forum. I've got a lot of old original late 80s / early 90s air fix models. Any idea if they have any value

They have a priceless build value to give you heaps of enjoyment and peace. Probably wouldn't get a lot of hard, cold cash for them, but, you can always invest in gold if you seek riches.

Forgot to welcome you to the forum. Welcome!!!

I have moved the original post & response to this more suitable forum.

It would be nice to introduce yourself in the Welcome forum.

One of the places to check value on kits is E-bay; it is not a focus of this forum community.

It's my model and I'll do what I want with it.

Affraid to say that since the kids grew up I'm a lapsed modeller who knows maybe I'll get back to it. Cheers

Come on - you know you want too.
Remember that alluring smell of polystyrene cement?
The whiff of fumes when you opened that Humbrol paint tin?
The "b*****king you got from your mum when you spilled thinner all over that expensive rug?

The joys of plastic model building do not diminish with age.
