Odds and Ordnance

A newish company in the UK, they've started doing weapons sets, conversions & correction sets for British aircraft.  Of most interest to us lot are some TSR.2 sets, two in 1/72, one containing AS.30's and the proposed pylons (they do a similar set with Bucc pylons), one a correction set for the fin & two correction sets in 1/48, one for the tail surfaces, one for the fuselage (not yet available).

There are a few weapons sets that might be useful for whiffing.  There are Firestreaks & Red Tops available for the Sea Vixen.  There are weapons sets for mud-moving Lightnings, bombs & rockets in one and some overwing Matra JL-100 rocket/drop tank combos in the other.  Plenty of sets for the 1/72 Bucc to coincide with Airfix's re-release, including a South African conversion.

Seem to be offering some interesting stuff for British subjects.

Simon.

Well as he's Joes mate you can bet that he's already been asked

You're welcome Tim!  Hopefully some of those bits will be very useful.

Love the decent JL-100s! 

That two-seat Hunter conversion could find it's way onto a whiff too - nice one Mossie!

Here's a photo of the two seat Hunter conversion.
Campbell (Mr. Odds and Ordnance) explained that he has moulded it with the D/F housing and both guns in place as it is easier to remove them than to add. I agree totally.
The mouldings are really nice.

See http://www.oddsandordnance.co.uk/
An attractive product range at seemingly sensible prices.  Mike McEvoy has used a Hunter T7 resin conversion - see the 'Grumpy Old Modeller' website - but has anyone had any dealings with this company?  I've sent a couple of e-mails enquiring about said conversion, how to pay, etc, but no replies yet.

Erm............ there's a menu item on their web site titled 'How to Pay', fifth down on the left side........

I might be wrong but I thought I'd seen somewhere "that real life" had intervened for the moment so things are on hold temporarily ? As I said I might be wrong.

Some nice sets there, I might get hold of the Matra JL.100's & the Lightning trainer conversion when it comes out.

No, I think you're right.  Quite ill - something with his eyes IIRC.

Erm............yes indeed there is but it appears a little contradictory to me and I wanted to check before committing, and it does mention contacting them in advance of ordering.

If he is as poorly as Chris says I hope he makes a speedy recovery - he lives in a pretty isolated part of the world (try Google earthing his post code and you'll see what I mean!) so it can't be too much fun for him being sick.

Well, things seem to be moving again.  A few new pics have shown up without captions, mostly of tank & interesting poddy type things that I can't identify off the top of my head.  The only one I can identify with any certainty is the AIR-2 Genie air-to-air nuke....
