Just in today, another Airfix/Heller LCVP for the fleet. Picked this up for a good price on NZ Trademe auction site. I couldn't really not buy it as Airfix have stopped building them and it may be a while before we see them again.
they are actually Heller molds- so maybe an issue with them? its odd given that they have a made a resurgence in 1/76th scale with the new kits being released over the past few years

The cursed Airfix cycle strikes again. I have one too but its use is enigmatic for me ;)
ReplyDeleteHow do you know what's in my attic?

Saw some of the new Airfix houses a couple of days ago, outrageously expensive, very sad:(

There seem to be a lot of them on sale in the UK.

Yep if you check the Airfis website you will notice the all have been dropped from the catalog. They will be back, I am sure...
