Grabbed the Airfix Vampire T.11 giftset with NZ markings at the local hobby store today. Took Miss 5 to buy whatever kit she wanted as she's been asking to build with me, she bought a snap fit Revell car, and saw the Vampire on the way out. So Miss 5 built her car and expressed her disgust at it neither needing painting or 'stickers'/decals so now she's helping me build the Vampire... Wish me luck, tomorrow we try the airbrush.

What about an RNLI Tamar or Shannon? They did the Severn a few years back. Or even the older ones, Mersey is it? I'm a sucker for anything with bright orange paint or the words rescue on it somewhere. Well out of the box but if Airfix ever get into trucks can I have a collection of UK firetrucks please? Only asking as the only way I'll ever see an Australian fire truck is to scratch build one and I struggle with making the ones that come in boxes

First post, G'day all. ☺️ I'll second a Canberra in 1:72. If there was a B2 option it would be easy for Aussie subject modellers to produce it as a B20. I'd also like to see a sprue added to the 1:72 Beaufighter kit for the Sperrey autopilot lump the Aussie Beau's wore. Same era, a Beaufort? Other than that I would definitely buy a Sea Venom, Hunter,, meteor, TSR,and Vulcan if they were in 1:72. The last two are near impossible to find. Would anyone be interested in the flying bedstead/ early Harrier prototypes?
