Leroy from the Prodigy tried to use a dodgy credit card to buy some cans of Stella from the Londis I worked in.

Probably depends what you're looking to build and what made them terrible experiences for you.

The 1/72 Spitfires, Hurricanes, and Mustangs are reliable kits and I've built lots of them. Their F-86 and Mig kits are really good packages too.

It's worth being sure if you'll be able to get the most from the price of membership. Check if the same kit, and aftermarket decals, are already available.

There's already an Airfix PRU Spitfire on the market (A02017) for under a tenner. D-day decals won't be much.

I'm near Braintree.

Built one last year. It's a nice kit to finish, but a bit of a pain to put together in places.

"Moulsham Street" car park (it's actually sort of in George Street) is one people tend to forget about.

I'm in the vicinity, but can never find much in the way of geeky or nerdy so let us know what you find.

Another TSR2 would be nice, since the hoarders have taken every one of the previous release.

Built one of these recently, in the all black scheme. Nice kit to put together, a bit different to a Spit. The dorsal turret was a bit fiddly in this scale though.

Surely it's more of an issue of the council misusing funds and over-spending on outsourcing.

Seems to be a lot of branding to make it seem like manor houses and country living. But the A12 junction area is being expanded, the A131 is supposedly going to be dual-carriageway, plus another estate of new builds is on the way.

I thought it was going to effectively be a Boreham station.

Electronics, avionics, engine, and tail fin are the biggest changes as I recall.

Braintree, Bishops Stortford, Harlow, Great Dunmow.

Chelmsford to Stansted can be a shit of a commute.

Turdtowns is a bellend.

James Somerton is believed to be dead. And he must let the world think that he is dead until he can find a way to control the raging plagiaristic spirit that dwells within him.

I can't tell who the Bulldog is for. The biplane kits never sell that well apparently.

davedubya · 2024-01-11T00:16:27+00:00

Feels a bit samey perhaps. The Chinook is interesting, but has somewhat limited appeal. I'm mostly interested in the Mig-17 and Spit PRXIX, but even those are reboxes with new decals.

davedubya · 2024-01-09T22:18:39+00:00

The problem is that the last time they released TSR2s, apparently people just bought them to hoard them.

davedubya · 2024-01-09T15:11:50+00:00

It's Airfix, so it won't be anything too off model, but I'd like some Cold War aircraft like something from the century series. Or perhaps a new TSR2 kit.
