Lovely kits , happier times.

We're not in the EU, so blame the UK for the typical bull***t rules THEY have.

Great savings on kit you might not like. Risky.

Have a question for you Mos..how comes some brit WWII fighters had a brown and green camo scheme on top and some others had a grey and green scheme?

When I was a kid in the 70's an Airfix 72 nd scale kit was 65 cents in Australia now it costs $24.99 for the same vintage classic.

Just got my bundle today. Chipmuck swapped out for a Tiger moth

Well done to Airfix for introducing such kits for starters like this..Also a great leap for Airfix releasing these beginners kits in this scale..Hope they catch on as no one else are making these type of models in 1/35.. Great video showing and explaining this kit..

to be fair 1/48 isn't really my scale, but when that chipmunk was released I had to get one, I was never a cadet, but I did use to see them pottering about along with bulldogs, all the time in the 80's.

So glad you bought this. If I had bought it I would have got 3 kits I already own, a kit a already owned twice and 2 kits in a scale I dont build! Saved me wasting a lot of money. Thanks

Normally I have no interest in fancy, hoity-toity cars but since this is a rare kit to be re-released I might pick this one up, looks good in black, deep red or dark green.

Τι μου θύμισε το μοντέλο αυτό 1969 Αμβούργο έχουμε πάει στο τελευταίο όροφο στο μεγάλο πολυκατάστημα. Horten το αγοράζω 6 μάρκα και περιμένω να γυρίσουμε στο πλοίο για να το ανοίξω να το χαζέψω πριν το φτιάξω ευτυχία μεγάλη με το τίποτα και τώρα έχω 1800 κομμάτια και δεν μου κάνει τίποτα αισθηση

Love the Music accompanying your video.

Whilst I have no problem with Revell re-branding these old kits, I do have a problem with the price point. In some cases you can get the original vintage Matchbox kit for less. These were "pocket money" kits back in the day. Now Revell are asking a premium for what are essentially 50 year old kits . Those moulds must have paid for themselves 10x over by now !

F-86 is a nice kit MOS

Jimmy Carter was born in October of 1924. If he can live another 3 or 4 months after I left this comment, then he was one of the lucky ones who made it to 100 years old.

I'm currently making the Pocher Lotus 72D. It's quite challenging, but it should look great when I've finished. Haven't decided whether to get the Aventador yet.

Built the F4F Wildcat when I was young, problem with the wing folds, wanted to built it with the wing extended, had issues

What if you attach a dual action airbrush to that compressor? Will it blow up?

Surely the 1.72 stuff should be no more than a tenner, Bring back the Woolies prices.

Biggest headache? The tweezers fling. When you look on helplessly, as a vital component arcs majestically onto the tufted Wilton, and you have to spend ages on your hands and knees looking for it.

Hiya MOS. There's a problem with your figures mate. If you're club member you'd be paying 10% less for each of the kits too, so the saving would be the same. Either way £74.94 is a hefty saving, it's just not bigger if you're a club member. On the subject of bundles, I've just had a thought. How about a Starter bundle or bundles, one each for aircraft, armour, and vehicles with a Starter Set in each bundle, a few scale 1 kits and possibly one scale 2? Then a newbie modeller has a ready made stash :) If they don't get on with model making and decide to sell excess kits they could sell them a few quid less than Airfix and still make a profit as the bundle saves so much.

I wish Airfix wasn't so pricey over on this side of the pond. Probably just as well, I need to stop impulse buying... just waiting on a DeHavilland Dash-8 and Buffalo to come out...

I bought a new air compressor and I hate it says no one ever.

Nice one Mossy - I've been waiting for a review, at last...!! Best man for it..!

It's a nice bundle but why the mix of scales? It doesn't make sense enough for me to buy it as i only do 72 scale.

CLICK HERE FOR THE BUNDLE prf.hn/l/1MNmvO5 👀 My new book "I Spilt my Tamiya Extra Thin"is available to buy!! amzn.to/3z702Aj

My Mystery Bundle last month had a Hawker Tempest and ME 262A in 1/72 In 1/48 I got the Sabre a P51D and a Blenheim Mk1.I got double points and it cost me £90 as a club member

Airfix advertised that they were re-doing this bundle a couple of weeks ago... I last got the bundle in Feb and I got the sabre in it then, think more variation is required.

Thanks for posting the new bundle Mos, nice to see what is on offer. I wonder though if your savings calculations for club members is missing something? If as a member you bought the kits individually you would get 10% off all of them giving a total cost of £157.45 so a saving of £67.45. Also all of the kits in the bundle are individually on the double Hornby points list giving you in effect another 10% off!

Very good 👍 video see lots but always impressed. I have a nice collection of bsa only nothing else i am 75 i restore all my bike 🏍 am a retired engineer I've rebuild most car engine's from side valves 1940 to now .but I've settled for bsa only one day soon i would love to open a bsa museum to tell the story of these classic. By the way you don't see as many jap bikes 😅

Nice bundle for anyone not having them already in their stash or wanting to do a second paint scheme.

Looks like a cool bundle Mos

Looks a good bundle the fairey swordfish interests me the most

A great deal, Mos, if you want them all that is. Are all the mystery bundles the same contents, or is it the pot luck I would have expected? If its not pot luck, why don't Airfix tell us whats in the bundle? As I do 172 only (ok the odd 1144 airliner), a 148 bundle not such good value. I wonder if Airfix looks at YT comments.

That’s a great deal Mos. Are you doing the £70 1-35 tank bundle?

I don't build bigger than 1/72 and the Swordfish doesn't appeal to me so the only thing in it that appeals to me is the lightning...and already have 2 of them so its an easy pass for ne

Hi MOS6510 Models, good video as always, just to let you know i bough t your book last night from Amazon.

that's a great deal. Thank you Mos for reviewing

Great looking bundle😋😋

D'oh.. no idea how the hell I missed this! I see making models and social media as /separate/ parts of a /process/. The actual hobby as Luke inferred is making models. Once the model is made, the hobby part is over, then the next part of the process starts. The crossover of course is filming while making a model; the camera isn't usually there, you can curse to your hearts' content as you don't have You Tube rules to follow, etc. If however you're not a YT creator and just make models then the question really is only what's a pain in the proverbial in Scale Modelling. As for the biggest headache, nobody's mentioned having to modify a kit. Often there is advice to drill holes - which are sometimes not marked! - and the hole size advised is in a drill bit size that doesn't exist and/or you don't have, e.g. a 0.8mm hole when you have a 1mm bit (is 0.2mm really going to make any difference?). I even saw one kit where the instructions told the modeller to make the machine guns!! Accuracy is another issue sometimes. Not the rivet counter level, but a kit say the wrong shape - for example Gary Evans made a Mistercraft Sea Harrier and the kit had entirely the wrong nose. Luke's right about critical comments. There's a difference between /criticism/ - usually negative and confined to an unqualified opinion - and a /critique/ - always qualified feedback and usually if not all positive, then some of the feedback is. [Edit: I wrote that before Luke said essentially the same thing] Often a critique is requested, criticism isn't. For example as a Senior Tech when I gave feedback I used what I called a 'sh!t sandwich' and told the team member what they were doing right, then wrong, then right again, so they'd go off thinking 'I'm doing OK.. not perfect but I know what to work on and how.' The same is true of models.. if someone just says 'That's crap!' it's unhelpful negativity, but someone else may say 'It's not bad for a first go, but [for example] the canopy's fogged and has overspill.. next time use PVA and canopy masks.' In the second instance the person knows what they did wrong and how to correct it. The problem with the word 'appraisal' BTW I think is that it includes the word 'praise' so there is an expectation that it be wholly positive, which in some ways is equally as unhelpful as criticism; one ignores mistakes and the other highlights them exclusively. Luke mentioned the definition is that it's from an expert. The problem with that is the world is full of people who /think/ they are experts, so they may appraise something and be completely wrong. Instructions. Do they /instruct/ or inform and how successful are they? Do they tell the reader what they need to know? Is it in a clear concise manner? If no to either then IMHO they've failed at the only job they had. BTW it could be worse. Far Eastern companies etc. could do instructions in the direction they read, so you start with the complete model, and finish with a sprue tree *lol* As for languages, Google Translate is often a car crash unless it's a really simple sentence. Try translating a sentence, then flip it and I guarantee the English version will be wrong. [I've watched 1:15 so far, may add more tomorrow]

100% agree with @John Alec - my biggest headache is that final pulling everything together stage. Other things like fit, gatekeepers, photoetch etc can all be dealt with either with work or by avoidance, but you can't avoid making a kit in making a kit! There are available solutions to things like tracks, but I have the choice to build a kit or not and how to build it, so any "headache" in a kit I've committed to is my own fault - like the hangover after drinking, it's the consequence of the action!

please God no one ever buy this it will put you off 3D printing forever get an A1 mini from bamboo lab this is absolute joke it's repackaged it's rebranded it's Chinese bulshit that nobody should be slinging

I have nearly finished this model. It went together quite well and I like the details on the wheels especially. Unfortunately despite my best efforts I shattered the turret aerial as I removed it from the spruce-it really is fragile! I still haven't worked out how to fix the tracks-they are so thin!

A really good video and you being present in your videos is a step forward. So please keep up the great work!! Applau you England
