Well, you can't have enough of them really...I suppose. This one is the latest edition to my pile of 1/100th scale chopper kits and diecast gunships. I had one of these years ago for my Colonial Settlers but it got crunched by accident. I'm glad I found this one on Ebay, as they're hard to track down and perfect for 1960's era Africa. I know that you can now get a 3D printed version of the Alouette III in 1/100th and an expensive 15mm metal kit, so I could have gone down that route, but I like building plastic kits so this one's fine for me. I don't have a use for it yet but when has that ever been a problem?
Hello Jim, now that looks cool. Looking forward to seeing the box contents...!
ReplyDeleteJust ordered four (4) from Shapeways (3D), so I'll see soon how they look and paint up. Plan on using them for a Colonist Army using AK47 rules. Using Rhodesia as an model for the army, so looking to add a DC-3 (smile) for paratroopers.
