Hi there
Well, I know I shouldn't have, but I rewarded myself for reaching the bottom of the Stash in my pack-up to move home - so I couldn't resist looking in on Modelzone in Sutton one last time!
I bought a no-brainer; Tamiya's 1:48 P-51D w/ Saff Car for a nice easy no-stress build once I get settled the other end. 
All the best

Nice one Rowan! 
I took some photos of a Dodge staff car a couple of weeks ago. 1943 vintage and completely original. Would they be appropriate for a walkround on Aeroscale seeing as there is such a strong tie in with the Mustang kit?
What the postman bought me today....................................

Hi Steffen
Funny that you should mention the Hunter - one of the gems I discovered while packing was Revell Germany's 1:32 FGA.9. It's a beautiful kit, but the box was so big, I'd tucked it away under a worktop (along with their 1:48 Ju 52!), out of sight and out of mind for years!

Hi Rowan
Yeah, the Revell Hunter is nice in 32 and 72 .. but sadly they do not have one in my scale. I have the Academy Hunter which I have heard needs some serious work and some corrections too ... I am not sure what the Aeroclub set will do but from a first look it does not seem that major improvement though I was advised to get it (I already have the Aires FGA Mk.9 "super" set)

During the final stages of Moduni summer sale, bought these:
And this from local supermarket, I know there is Eduards new G-2 available, but this is around 30€ cheaper not even counting the postal charges..

Hi Steffen
I've always heard that the Aeroclub set is well worth getting to correct the rear fuselage, the undercarriage and the cockpit and canopy, so I reckon you've done the right thing.
All the best

Thank you Rowan.
Well I had a closer look and the rear cone is sure different. also the hints are well worth it. But I have teh sqn canopy (which looks much clearer .. have to compare the shapes. I have teh aires cockpit as the wheel bay. so there is only some gear legs and the wheels (that look pretty bad in my copy) .. all in all not bad, but the tail cones for a few pounds would have been enough ....
cheers

Well , I did walk around the mall for a bit having at look at things, which the pocket will not allow me to make any more purchase after the adventure into the hobby shop . So I really didn't make it to the shoe store ! I did find a nice fall jacket at a great price , just need shoe's to go with it now
