Hi Andy. Well what a haul. For me the 'stars' of the show were ( in no particular order ). The Ju 86 , the 'Battle of Britain' Italian bomber. Also the classic Henshal hs 123. The sd.kfz7 with Quad gun plus the Veltro fighter and the other MC fighter. Also the Italian tri-motor torpedo bomber ( I always fancied having a go at one of them). Really like the Arado E-555 bomber. But the real star of the show for me was the two Panzer Colours books, there are 3 in the set. I refer to them as my bibles of military pictures. I like your enthusiasm, your parcel delivery guy must be getting sick and tired of you. But at least your keeping him busy. In one of those books ( can't remember what one) there are some realy good pictures of early period D.A.K.vehicles, enjoy looking at them. You sound much better, good luck buddy.
Hi Brian, luckily Panzer Colours 3 is in transit, just had a quick mooch at 1 & 2, will be reviewing them shortly. You picked out a few of my favourites, i was reading about the HE123 a few weeks ago and as soon as i got the Stuka i knew i had to get that as well. The Arado E555 is just a great, scary, fun looking thing, though i think my favourite is the French Potez light bomber, i am waiting on a few more Frenchies, some of their aircraft are well, very pleasant on the eye, but mostly proved to be pretty useless from what i have read. "whats in the box review?" pick one will do it next week.
Hi Andy. Maybe you could do the Henschel in Spanish civil war colours. I know that they were used in the Condor legion in that conflict. Good luck bud.
@@TheNoviceModeller Hi Andy. The good thing about the Arado E-555 is that you can do it in whatever colour scheme you want. The Germans were doing some really interesting camoflage late in the war. Just look at some of the pictures of planes like the Heinkel 177 or the Junkers 290 & 390 as well as the Ju 388 and others. I have an interesting book all about Luftwaffe post 46 bomber projects, some very unusual ideas in there. It led me to build a four nacelle prototype He277 from the Revell kit. I had to buy two so I could get a pair of inner wing panels that allowed me to create the extra engine nacelle on each wing. Oh by the way that Nova Dewatoine is going to be a real pig, those kits of that period all were. I hope you like scratchbuilding, coz you will have to do plenty of it. Good luck buddy.
Another smash and grab great haul of kits Andy. Now a huge gigantuan collection of them to make which will now definitely keep you very busy, well beyond Christmas. Without a doubt. Hope also you now start to consider using your airbrush on some of them besides a fantastic collection of brushes and associated acccessories. Looking forward to the next video. Thanks again Dean
All the gear and no idea, thats my motto LOL.The results from the airbrush seem positive so far, still a long way to go, though i did find hand painting quite calming and pleasant, so will probably do a bit of both depending on my mood. I have the other 9 spits prepared so they will all be airbrushed. Seriously no goddam idea why i bought all them brushes, i think theres an interesting vid there somewhere, but i think its fair to say that i wont be buying another for a few years now LOL
My name is John. Love your models. I’ve got about 60 boxes of unmade models. Mostly German WW2 aircraft. Most I bought 30 years ago. Got some nice ones. Plus a few British bombers. Some day I’ll make them. Made hundreds of models in my teens. I still have two. Got a T 34. And a Me 110. It’s fun watching you open the boxes. Love the Ju 86
hello there John and thanks for watching; LOL i also enjoy opening these boxes of kits, though TBH my bank manager and therapist are extremely concerned, but to hell with them, what do they know LOL. Hope you decide to get your paints and glue out some time soon and get some of those kits built. best regards andy be seeing you.
Hi Andy. Watching the big haul again. Any chance you can show us the Fiat br20 Cicogna and the Ju86 E1/E2 please. Also if you think that Revell Ta 152 kit is bad wait till you tackle the Nova Dewatoine 520 kit. As bad as Revell kit but much older, and its a small aircraft. Good luck bud.
Hi Brian, just done those 2 kits plus the Potez. going to be reviewing and building some Japanese kits next week. The TA-152 will get done at some point, but TBH i only bought it as it was £7 incl P&P, that Dewatoine will be getting done sooner as i have a bunch of Frenchies i want to get stuck into/ or stuck to pretty soonish LOL.
Thanks for the video, Andy. I find Mig-3 a very beautiful aircraft, with its short back part and long nose. Arado is definitely the star of the show, even though never built as far as I know. Ju-52 is such a beautiful aircraft, can't have enough of them. Also some nice rare Italian, Russian and Polish aircraft.
I have found myself being drawn to French, Italian, Russian, Polish Japanese and Italian aircraft recently, not sure why. No the Arado was never built the design project was abandoned in 1944, just read the blurb on the instruction sheet. Someone has asked me to do a review on the Arado, would you like the MIG3? looks really nice in the white with red and is rather pretty, not sure about the manufacturer though.
hello there @ormodelbuilder5001 and thanks for watching, I think my intention is to build a small hut from model kit boxes, i used to think this was a joke but it is probably achievable now. Nice Merkava BTW.
Hello again Eric, i still need to clear the mess up, so especially like Christmas LOL somebody else has pointed out the Frog/Novo reboxing, i always find this rather interesting as i have had quite a few reboxed kits with my Spitfire collection.i think the Dewoitine cost me £8 with free P&P so very reasonable, for a rather interesting plane.
My want list is crying for mercy after your unboxing videos. Funny how after deciding I would go for 1/48 and bigger on planes I find I'm drawn more and more towards 1/72 as well. Must be some mysterious suggestive power afoot. About to finish a SMER 1/72 Hawker Hurricane II C, which is a reboxing of 1977 Heller kit and quite enjoying that. Agree on the Heller Potez for the box art alone. Beautiful. And now you should be able to show how to build a cardboard hut on the cheap by spending big ££.
Hello again @flightis3dollars, apologies for causing your "want list" pain, i have one more of these haul unboxing's in the pipeline and then i will have to give them a rest as well i have nowhere to stash the stash LOL. This chaos started for me with a 1/32 Revell Iron Maiden Spitfire at Christmas, and thinking "i'll just buy a couple of 1/72 Spitfires to practice on"; now i have a UA-cam channel, 200+ kits and the damn thing has got no chance of getting built for months! LOL. Would you like the Potez unboxing? It's a pretty looking little thing.
The Junkers JU-86 was one of the first models created as a shared production with Revell and Italaerei.. often you can see them with both brands on the box.. i have one in the stash
Hello there @MOS6510Models and thanks for watching, I'm no expert obviously LOL, It was unfamiliar when i saw it on Ebay, i must admit i rather like twin tails, so decided to have a punt on it and add it to my stash. Only just starting out on this model building malarkey, might have to set aside a few hours to watch a few of your rather good looking vids. best regards andy.
Andy, awesome video, you're contagious - I've been shopping eBay a lot lately with success haven't received a stash that big yet :-) plus must be the geography I've not seen many of those manufacturers before. I just looked at that Arrado " New York " bomber, like a moth to the flame I keep going back to it. A quick box review on that might be interesting. I always try and write down the name of your brews I try to find them in the colonies. Glad to hear the cold seems to have gone away, hope you have some malt left over. Enjoy the football . Once again super video. Cheers Bob.
i have been contagious with this damn lurgy all week LOL. Ebay is a great source for odd models, finding myself drawn to Japanese, French, Italian Soviet and a few Polish designs. The Arado 555 cost me less than £20 with free P&P i couldn't refuse at that price, will happily open it up for you next week. i only live down the road from Wrexham 2nd home of colonial celebrity owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney riding high 2nd in league 2 (which is confusingly the 4th division) after giving Forest Green Rovers a damn good 6-0 thrashing today. We do love Ryan & Rob round these parts. If you see Wrexham lager your side of the pond don't bother, its overpriced over here and tastes little better than Bud Light.
Hello there @ianbutler8776 and thanks for watching, one of my favourites, no problem i will do a "whats in the box" kit review for it over the next 4-5 days.
Hello Phil, no lottery win unfortunately, just a nice overtime payday last month. A video on how/why? hmmmm i think there are several lines of collection at play here........ Tamiya Warbirds, Japanese, Italian, Russian, French, Polish plus a few obscure German, there is another load, to fill in a few gaps on the way and then i'm afraid my spending will be pretty much over. I think i will then be able to realise my dream of building a hut out of model kit boxes LOL.
hi! I've built that italeri JU 86, it needed quite a bit of fettling to get right, especially on the underside and undercarriage, but that undercarriage does reflect the strange way Junkers made it on the real aircraft! the underside bathtub gun position can be made to retract up and extend down, but not if you have the gun sticking out like on the box! all that said it does make a nice model of an aircraft that i don't think has been kitted by any other manufacturer. (and I've just realised I finished mine as NV + EW, same as that box art!)
hello there Phil and thanks for watching; i have been watching your progress on your Flying Fortress, you have far more skill than i will probably ever have. I saw the JU86 and thought it looked unfamiliar and rather interesting, i do like twin tails. It is a rather old model so i guess it comes with its pros & cons.
Hello there @mp-modelplastic and thanks for watching. I do like opening parcels, there is another bunch of similar vids to this in my UA-cam Library and a rather large stash of boxes in my spare bedroom ready to make a few more LOL. interestingly i have a Spitfire, partially painted, waiting to completed with Portuguese markings in my pile of unfinished Spit kits.
You said the Arado reminded you of Indiana Jones. The cockpit reminds me of the Millenium Falcon. You really need to do an Easter egg and have Indiana Jones and Chewbacca in the cockpit to bring the two franchises together.
Hello there Adam. Now that's an interesting possibility, not sure where i can get 1/72 Indy and Chewwie figures from though. Constantly on the lookout for a "Sun Models BV-38" though they seem to be the proverbial rocking horse shit model kit. Nice Viper BTW judging by the head gear i'd say it was 1978 vintage.
@@TheNoviceModeller The BV38 would be an interesting one to build. There is a 1/48 resin kit but that goes for a few hundred. No way I'm paying that much for a kit. The Viper is the 1978 version. It's the Moebius Models kit in 1/32 scale. I finished it last week. It had been in my stash for 11 years and I finally built it.
Hello again Adam, 11 years, thinking it will take me more than that to get round to building some of mine. how long did it take you to build, big fan of BSG 78 and reboot? Would be very interested to see some pics of it and your Starbug. Out of curiosity who makes the BV38? If i can ever get my head around a resin kit at some point in the future, that'd be right on my to get list, though £200 is a lot for one kit, though grrrr i think i'd have to get it.
I see you buy a lot of models,so let me recomend some good airplanes in 1/72 scale that I have in stash or build: Zvezda-Junkers 88 (versions with torpedo and nose antennas),Petlyakov Pe-8,Petlyakov Pe-2. ICM-Messerchmitt 109 E,Dornier 215 B-5. Hasegawa-Mitsubishi G3M,G4M with Okha,Mitsubishi Ki-49 & Ki-67,B-26F/G Marauder,North American B-25J Mitchell,B-24J Liberator. Revell-Blohm & Voss 222 Wiking. Academy-B-29.
hello there @dejansvrljuga6891 and thanks for watching, i have had a look at a few of the unfamiliar ones on ebay, some of them are very interesting, i shall have to put some more overtime in to be able to extend my collection further. The B&V Wiking is one i have looked at and gone no because of size. Would you like a "whats in the box review" of any of the ones in the vid. Best regards andy
hello there @thedisabledwelshman9266 and thanks or watching. I am told that they are still being produced, though havnt seen them, though am thinking the content will have been watered down or "modern audiences" Ebay is awash with people selling bundles and singles of the originals though
30 years ago I had one source for these Commando comics, a second hand comics and magazine shop in Edinburgh. At Nicolson square (southern part of the Old Town) but it must be long gone now.
😱😱Oh my gosh y'all defo got a SABLE now young man. Saw that 8 ton halftrack on another UA-cam and wanted it . Did you get the Arado from Jadlam recognised the packing .used to read Commando and warlord ,welljell 😭of all Tamiya. Whom has the cooler fans Prince William or Deadpool 😂😂😂😂🍸🍸
Hi Steve, SABLE? you got me on that one. The 8 ton was BNWT £20.95 free P&P its an old kit, but at that price a bargain. Same for the Arado, yes Jadlam, less than £20 with free P&P sometimes i just cant say no, luckily i banked a load of overtime last month. Deadpool obviously, Wrexham is 12 miles down the road from me and Birmingham, well i've been there once, been through it perhaps 3 times and gone past it countless times.
Oh yeah the commando comics, now i had perhaps a hundred of these when i was a kid and a couple of the covers are still imprinted in my mind for some bizarre reason, i bought this particular stack because one of those covers is present, i shall have to keep an eye out for the other two.
@@TheNoviceModeller No not been to Wrexham gotta go at least once. Look at Charlie Chaplin and Pablo Picasso they had kids in their 80s or charity shop
Thanks @jimmclaughlin2728 i am suffering from a mid-life crisis and i have an 8 year plan to complete all these kits, the question is who runs out of patience with my "muppet who makes models badly" character and his "model making malarkey" first? you or me LOL. if it's me there will be 400-500 kits going cheap on Ebay.
Ah yes Novo (a Russian company) bought all the old Frog molds, then promptly shit canned ALL the German kits and released most if not all the other Frog offerings. You might want to open that one up as a is this kit shit or not. Even though the Frog kits weren't so bad for the day, it seems like something went horribly wrong when Novo re-popped them.
Hi taskmaster a viewer recommended the Dewotine as it was his favourite plane, it is rather pretty, i think it was £8 with free P&P so if it is a bit crap i may put it in the "Is this the worst !/72 model ever" pile and buy a slightly better version. However it has made me cast my eye on some other French lovelies, i have a few on the way but the Ebayer is on holiday so that'll be another story.
@@TheNoviceModeller thick, hard plastic that resists correction and serious fit issues. Plus very soft on details. I built one of their WWI British tanks. Ugh!
ah well, another viewer has requested a "whats in the box" review of it, also doing the Henschel, the SV 79 and the Arado, anything you fancy having a look-see at?

😱😱Oh my gosh y'all defo got a SABLE now young man. Saw that 8 ton halftrack on another UA-cam and wanted it . Did you get the Arado from Jadlam recognised the packing .used to read Commando and warlord ,welljell 😭of all Tamiya. Whom has the cooler fans Prince William or Deadpool 😂😂😂😂🍸🍸
Hi Steve, SABLE? you got me on that one. The 8 ton was BNWT £20.95 free P&P its an old kit, but at that price a bargain. Same for the Arado, yes Jadlam, less than £20 with free P&P sometimes i just cant say no, luckily i banked a load of overtime last month. Deadpool obviously, Wrexham is 12 miles down the road from me and Birmingham, well i've been there once, been through it perhaps 3 times and gone past it countless times.
Oh yeah the commando comics, now i had perhaps a hundred of these when i was a kid and a couple of the covers are still imprinted in my mind for some bizarre reason, i bought this particular stack because one of those covers is present, i shall have to keep an eye out for the other two.
@@TheNoviceModeller Stash Acquisition Beyond Life Expectancy 😂😂 . I think once is enough for the second city 😂😂.
Ah i see, I dont have any kids so i wonder who i should leave them all to?
You aint never been to Wrexham obviously! once is one time too many.
@@TheNoviceModeller No not been to Wrexham gotta go at least once. Look at Charlie Chaplin and Pablo Picasso they had kids in their 80s or charity shop
Be careful, the 109’s tend to multiply without one realizing.
Hello there Dennis, i will indeed keep an eye on them pesky 109's
when are you opening your shop? you have plenty of stock.
Thanks @jimmclaughlin2728 i am suffering from a mid-life crisis and i have an 8 year plan to complete all these kits, the question is who runs out of patience with my "muppet who makes models badly" character and his "model making malarkey" first? you or me LOL. if it's me there will be 400-500 kits going cheap on Ebay.
He is going to stash everything in a barn somewhere in Cornwall.
👍👍
Thanks

Может быть, до Рождества?
Ah yes Novo (a Russian company) bought all the old Frog molds, then promptly shit canned ALL the German kits and released most if not all the other Frog offerings. You might want to open that one up as a is this kit shit or not. Even though the Frog kits weren't so bad for the day, it seems like something went horribly wrong when Novo re-popped them.
Hi taskmaster a viewer recommended the Dewotine as it was his favourite plane, it is rather pretty, i think it was £8 with free P&P so if it is a bit crap i may put it in the "Is this the worst !/72 model ever" pile and buy a slightly better version. However it has made me cast my eye on some other French lovelies, i have a few on the way but the Ebayer is on holiday so that'll be another story.
It's Andy,s birthday, you are as, bad as me,lol ill have to start doing vids on my stash and reviews.
i just want enough kits to build a hut / play fort.
@TheNoviceModeller Be ambitious. Go for a full castle.
Eee. Emhar.
Yeah i know, a bit curious/concerened about this one, loverd the covert art though DOH.
@@TheNoviceModeller thick, hard plastic that resists correction and serious fit issues. Plus very soft on details. I built one of their WWI British tanks. Ugh!
ah well, another viewer has requested a "whats in the box" review of it, also doing the Henschel, the SV 79 and the Arado, anything you fancy having a look-see at?
the tamiya 8ton halftrak is pronounced flack-veer-ling.piece of useless info
@jimmclaughlin2728 useless info, good advice and banter all welcome here, though politics MEH!
