My interest in building plastic kits was recently rekindled after about 15 years when Gaynor got me a Battlestar Galactica Viper a couple of Christmasses ago. While I'm not building them at the rate my teenage self did, I've done a few others since then, and found that somewhat inevitably there are vibrant, informative and irredeemably geeky online communities devoted to the subject. The general concensus is that most of the new kits that Airfix are releasing are very good indeed, and are competing well against the far east alternatives, not least because exchange rates mean that the prices of the big Japanese brands are getting ridiculous.<br /><br /> I'm not sure if The Kids are buying them, but there seem to be plenty of middle-aged men with disposable income enough to buy multiple copies of the kits that interest them, and the time and inclination to spend hours arguing on the internet about the exact shade of sky blue used on the underside of Spitfires on July 17th, 1940. </div> <div class="message_footer"> <div class="message_footer_links"><a href="lpost.php?webtag=DEFAULT&reply_to=40224.28&return_msg=40224.24" class="reply"><span class="image post"></span>Reply</a></div> <div class="message_vote_form" data-msg="40224.28"> <span class="rating">0/0</span> <span class="image vote vote_down vote_down_off" title="Vote Down"></span> <span class="image vote vote_up vote_up_off" title="Vote Up"></span> </div> </div> </div><a name="a40224_29"></a><div class="message" id="message_40224_29"> <div class="message_header"> <div class="message_from"> From: Drew (X3N0PH0N)<span class="message_time">12 Jan 2013 22:36</span> <div class="clearer"></div> </div><div class="message_to">To: Kenny J (WINGNUTKJ) <span><span class="image post_read" title="Read: 12 Jan 2013 22:39"></span></span> <span class="message_count">29 of 101</span><div class="clearer"></div> </div> </div> <div class="message_links"> <a href="lmessages.php?webtag=DEFAULT&msg=40224.29">40224.29</a> In reply to <a href="lmessages.php?webtag=DEFAULT&msg=40224.24#a40224_28" target="_self">40224.28</a></div> <div class="message_body"> I think I'd find building airfix kits kinda therapeutic.
