Airfix swap meet buy up! November 7 2009 at 2:57 PM		(Login djnick66) HyperScale Forums from IP address 71.100.200.116


The local model club had their annual mini show and swap meet today outside my shop. There are always a lot of 1/72 airplanes to be had, and usually for a good price! I got these four Airfix kits for less than the asked price... [IMG][/IMG] And the MPC issue of P-51 B, which is a very nice kit. [IMG][/IMG] This motorized LS Betty set me back a whopping $4... it has the full interior plus a fuel truck. [IMG][/IMG] This may be the first issue of the 1/64 Lindberg Junkers 88... worth the $5 I paid. I know Merlin isn't great but they were worth $1 each... especially the Frog Penguin repro kit! [IMG][/IMG] [IMG][/IMG] I bought the Woodcock also but a friend of mine had to have it because of the name!

HyperScale's Group Build Guidelines

The objective of this Group Build is to encourage as many modellers as possible to build their kits and share their progress via words and photos on this Forum.

You are welcome to post general construction tips or relevant reference information and photos to this Forum too.

This Group Build will feature Airfix kits.

Build as many kits as you like

Conversions, aftermarket and scratchbuilding are all permitted.

Any markings are acceptable.

Document your progress and do a write-up on your build - where did you have trouble, what improvements did you make, what markings did you choose and why? It would be GREAT if everyone would do a writeup and submit it to HyperScale as a Feature Article.
