AirFix - James May Style :)

NitroPlane, thanks for mentioning the Toy Stories episode with James May on the chat the other night. That was really cool. I made my 2 boys watch it (bored as usual) but afterwards I dug out of my closet 4 snap-tite models and we built them all. Had a great time. For those of you that don't know what I am talking about, watch the video below.

Sorry gang, I put it in the wrong forum, please move it to off-topic.

Moved it to off topic upon request.
So good to hear you and your boys had fun I used to build those with my dad.

That was great - really enjoyed it. I recently completed a small 1/72 Cessna.

The last on I did was a holiday project it was a 1/48 scale lancaster bomber.

I built most of the Airfix kits when they cost 2/6 each, and tins of Humbrol enamel were 1/3! LONG time ago!

(Anyone who's too young to remember REAL money, that's 12p & 7p roughly)
