One that won't be added is this http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/REVELL-1-72-SCALE-MESSERSCHMITT-BF-109-E-4-PLASTIC-MODEL-PLANE-KIT-NIB-04679-/110743545858?hash=item19c8d46802  ok $11.97 (£7.64) seems fair but $51.15  (£32.65) postage (hand carried) seems excessive !

Isn't that the 1960s version re-popped? I've built 2-3 of them and I'm not even sure it's worth the asking price, let alone the postage!  :o
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

I've built one of the radial engine 109 kits. Think it was the RS injected one (they also did a resin one originally which I sold on ages ago). Went together well and looked so Japanese I made it into one  ;D
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Well I've just won one of these off of ebay Germany but it's the older RS resin version. Also got a Huma 209 V5 (That's another radial engined 109 rather than the racer development). So a bit of What-if fodder to keep me interested !

Count is now 61 109's in total (56% of target)

Again any one wishing to liberate any 109 or 109 derivatives (S-199, cs-199 or Ha-1109 / Ha-1112s or even 109 based mistels) from their hoard, please let me know.

Time for a quick update.

Thank you gentlemen for all your offerings Weaver and PR19_Kit being the latest to add to my stash. I'll be honest things have dried up a little, I'm still accepting anything anyone has got to offer but I'm restricting my online buying filling the gaps both in the mark of 109 and the kit maker (for variety)

Todays total stands at 69 109 or 109 derivative kits.

Here's a quick Summary...

109 A   1
109 B   1
109 C   1
109 D   2
109 E  18
109 F  10
109 G  16
109 H   2
109 K   4
109 T   4

Luft'46 109s   7
109  derivatives (S-199, HA-1112 etc)  3

Quite happy with things as they are progressing though I'll need a few more K's. Unfortunately unless I get the Heller / Airfix re-pop I'm a little short of options.

Anybody else wishing to join my Christmas Card list ? Just offer up a 109 or 2  :thumbsup:
