Great collection (I really like the one with Lancaster engines - definitely makes it look different from your standard Mossie)

I have a lot of Mossie work ahead of me, this entire box is just Mosquito aftermarket, mostly Paragon 1/72.

Post by: gedmundson on May 05, 2025, 02:20:27 PM: Your collection of Mosquito models brought a smile to my face...especially the old Airfix 1/72 one. After seeing the film 633 Squadron as a youngster, I've never been able to shake off the intrigue that the aircraft gives me. Nice collection of nostalgia you have there.

It's hard to get that catchy 633 theme music out of my head now....
