Thank you David - its nice just to get a little bit of traction - its been a while!
It's looking great, David!
Thanks Robert !
It's hard to see anyone building Matchbox 1/72 planes now. They seem just existed in our childhood. My happiest thing in my teenage is went to the shop after school on Friday, bought a Matchbox kit and finished it in 2~3 hours without painting.
What a good time~~~
Thanks Yi. I used to build these as a kid so this is an exercise in nostalgia for me. i love putting these together as a change from modern complex kits.
I'm glad you are making this, David, as others have noted these kits are a real piece of nostalgia and you cannot help but smile just looking at that box. Really enjoying your posts, David.
When I got back into the hobby in my mid-twenties, this was one of the first kits I built. As such, it was pretty basic job of slapping stuff together, and I eventually trashed it! However, I still have lots of Matchbox kits in the stash...just because! I love pulling out an old classic and polishing it up just a tad. Your's looks fantastic!
