You know an odd place to find pull back models? Grocery stores. I've seen the last generation Celina, R35, Mustangs, and even the Initial D AE86. LOL.

OK so the O2 tanks, plumbing and dropped starboard flap all corrected to the new picture.
Now as long as I don't suddenly find ANOTHER picture!

I like it.. a bit of artistic expression... Brilliant!! Don't forget to install the aerial before it leaves your shores!! Plan B: Your "in-country support team" can improvise on your behalf, whittle down a toothpick to fit!!

Nope no aerial installed. I did it as the tarped up ready for recovery version. Canopy parts and aerial removed.



There it is! Aerial and wire right on top of the salvage pile.

Seeing it now, I get it. Good enough wasn't good enough. It took me a day to put it into words but it's not just icing. It was necessary.

Since they were really the only things in that whole section when I saw they were still there it had to be done.

Would it be bad to mention that the fuselage looks cut rather than torn in the new picture?

Speaking from firsthand experience, that's how they break. They tear precisely at the perforations in the skin where it's riveted.

Reeeally need at least a dining table at this point.

Wayfair? Local Target? Ikea (well, this one might be more irritating to make than the Lego. lol)?

Yeah I've looked at tons of stores. I'm having a difficult time finding something I want and the stuff that I'm interested in keeps getting delayed in ETA. So I haven't ordered anything.
