Hasegawa P-47 Egg

Kit Rating: 10 / 10

Decal Rating: 8 / 10 (The decals I used did not conform..)

Music by Audionautix and Incompetech.. (I think)

Good fun, not to be taken too seriously!

Can anyone find a UK retailer that I can buy this from?

@TheSam596 Hannants in Lowestoft has plenty of 'eggplanes' in stock still... :) Both jets and WWII types... :) They do online, telephone and postal orders.. :) If you live close by you can pop into the shop as well, I have done that a few times as I only live about 1 1/2 hours drive away..

@BasicModelling Really? I only live about 1 1/2 hours from Lowestoft, I live in south Lincolnshire, You?

@TheSam596 North Essex.. :) Well, I strongly recommend a visit to Hannants.. when I say shop, I mean warehouse.. it's quite large! Definetely worth a visit.. but bring plenty money, as I find on the first visit you tend to always buy more than you had planned... :)

@NKDspitfiremodeller The pilot who flew it lived locally for many years.. but I think he died only recently...

@TheSam596 Yup... :)

@joluqa Thank you... When I'm finished with my current project I hope to build a Hurricane Mk.Ia, as based in Luqa during the war.. Not sure when I will post the video of it though, as my sons cancer has returned and I will spend quite some time away from both my models and from YouTube, being in London... :P
