Found a cool 1:48 Spitfire model and a wee Hotwheels Starship Enterprise at a small gift shop in Hull before we boarded the ferry to Rotterdam. The Spit was only £15 and the Enterprise was 90p.. a few more little bargain goodies to add to my my Euro trip stash! :D

Oh and the Spitfire has retractable main gear too! Very nicely detailed! B))

Welcome back Spanner! Are you going to squeeze those in inside your Macross-only display cabinets? ;)

Got a few things in the mail today, but this was waiting for.

The King has arrived, all Hail Grimlock!

That small Enterprise is in scale or close to in scale to this larger Vengeance. I bought them because of that and they look cool together.

Looks great Saburo! Im gonna hold out for the Fans Toys Grimlock when my cousin gets him and then decide. Then I'll pick up the whole bunch. Funds permitting of course..

Hehe! Not much a chance of that happening sorry! :p:lol:

I can't say I'm much of a fan of the new movie version starships and much prefer the original movie ships.. I only got the HW Enterprise cos it looks cute and was cheap.. But that Vengeance does look pretty cool! B))

I'm with you on that! The original movie Enterprise is still the most beautiful starship ever, IMO.

I highly recommend picking up the old Bandai kit if you can find it. It's prepainted and comes with lights; just have to snap it together out of the box!

Oh man that is gorgeous! ♡♡♡ the Constitution re-fit class is my all time fav starship! I have the Diamond Select Enterprise toy which is quite nice but its engine nacelles, deflector and hull windows don't light up like the Bandai kit.. I wonder how hard the Bandai kit is to find!? Expensive?

You can get most any ship ever seen in the Star Trek universe I believe! Just gotta hunt them down on Evilbay. Yes that is the ship seen in the episode all good things, under Dr Crushers command. It's actually one of my favorites...the paint apps on it are absolutely perfect. Be careful though.... it's a slippery slope...once you buy one or two you have to have more. Not that any of us have a problem around here like that…

Bugger.. they going for around 30k+ yen.. -_-

I picked up a spare a few months back for about 8000 yen. Just in case something happens to my original, of course. They're fairly rare these days but they do pop up from time to time.

That is freakin gorgeous! Speaking of Star Trek.. I've recently become severely addicted to the Eaglemoss Star Trek Ship Line!! So here's what I have so far along with Mr. Glaug!

Nice! You have as many ships as I do from that line. :) Yeah discovering that line was opening up quite a Pandora's box!

There are some errors though. The Akira-class has "UNITED FEDERAION OF PLANETS" printed on it. :/

For 8k absolutely! For 30k maybe not.. Hey you wanna sell me your spare!? Hehe! ;)

Stopped at a hotel for the night on our way to Berlin and got a chance to play around with the Spitfire model. Such a lovely little plane! Had to give one of the landing gear a slight bend so it would deploy straight and stowe flush which was easy enough.. looks fab now! The tail wheel falls out when you pick it up so I'll have to add a drop of glue to fix that but no big deal of course.. my dad liked it so much that hes going to buy one on the return trip back to uk. He remembers Spitfires flying over his house when he was young as they lived minutes away from an RAF base. Here are some pics!

Yeah it does! And has details inside. Looks alright. The pilot figure is like a piece of chewing gum that has been shaped to loosely resemble a humanoid figure and is kinda crap. Also im going to paint on a few extra details like on and around the landing gear..
