Airfix 1/144 Soyuz display

From Apollo and Soyuz, to Gerry Anderson, Irwin Allen, Star Wars and Trek to Babylon 5, Battlestar Galactica and those strange, doe-eyed Japanese school girls...to any model kits you can think of, that only exists in imagination.

Airfix 1/144 Soyuz display

Post by Brickie »

From the venerable Airfix kit in its most recent boxing...

I've only blu-tacked the spare payloads to the base, so I can swap them onto the rocket booster as desired.

It's a nice kit, goes together really well and makes a nice display with minimum effort.

Nice build of this golden oldie and it's good to see you back Brickie.
