I've got a couple of Angel Interceptors in the stash so I thought I'd take a photo of the decal sheet next to the 1/72 TSR-2 parts.

The larger ones look to be a more suitable size than the smaller ones.

Guess size really doesn't matter in this case as it will be a what if (and suitable for the Sci-Fi GB also).

Look for my request in Wants.

I regret to note that we are just entering the 5th day and do not have the minimum participants.
I note philp indicates he will join but has not yet done so ?

I am in John. Still finishing a review kit so will be a later start.

Better get my order out for TSR.2 parts but think I will be doing a few others for this build.

We are short of builders and if this does not improve we will lose this one.

If a sixth build does not start by midnight Thursday (UK time) John will pull the plug on this GB and it will become a Shared Build with the five members already building.

OK so who are we missing..? If someone is holding back because they haven't been able to acquire a kit, they can PM me with an email address and I will send them a PDF of the free Paper-Replika TSR.2 or they could go to paper-replika.com and grab it themselves...dare to do paper..!!

I am not at all familiar with modern ordnance, exactly what type of bomb is the one included with the TSR-2 kit? is it current, is it a proposed weapon that also did not make it to production? as it is the only bomb in the bay am I right in thinking it is some type of nuke?

I'm guessing it's one of the variety of buckets of sunshine carried by the RAF at that time. I'm kind of glad we never really got to find out just how much was in each bucket
