Model Forum / General / Models / May 2006Got my TSR-2s
After searching high and low on the net, I walked into a Brisbane hobby shop on Wednesday and they had FOUR (count 'em, FOUR!) sitting on the shelf. Picked up two, didn't have the cash for the others. When I get organised, I'll put 'em on the Visa and get them shipped up this-a-way. Not a great kit, but good to have it in injection 72th at last. Thanks to those who offered to help in the quest. RobG (The Aussie One) Probably the only 4 in Oz........:) Bill Banaszak, MFE Sr. My friend in Scotland wasn't able to get one for me. :-( Hope that he has better luck with the Nimrod.

If you get really stuck though, let me know - I'll see what I can do from here (although postage is a killer from Aussie) RobG (The Aussie One) Rob Please e-mail me off sight. While I realize that it's not that good of a kit I have wanted an injection molded TSR-2 for decades. I don't build for competition so I should be happy with the results. Tom Hi Rob, Was in Mr Toys at Nambour ( Queensland, Aus) and they had heaps of them. It's worth a look if you are passing through as they are a well stocked shop for the plastic fans. I think they have so much plastic on the shelves they are running out of space. certainly a nice change . saw the atlentic U-boat and the new big SAR boats from Revell in 1/72, Latest Italeri plus Edward Tamiya etc regards JimboD > After searching high and low on the net, I walked into a Brisbane hobby > shop on Wednesday and they had FOUR (count 'em, FOUR!) sitting on the [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > RobG > (The Aussie One) > Hi Rob, Was in Mr Toys at Nambour ( Queensland, Aus) and they had > heaps of them. That's funny, as the distribution of the TSR seems to be a bit hit and miss here in Australia. Some of the hobby retailers I've talked to haven't seen their orders yet (and some of them are big shops, too) and one in particular said he doesn't expect to get any at all! And then I visit a shop that I usually don't bother going to as their stock holdings are generally less than impressive, and there's 4 of them. Like I said, a bit funny... But thanks for the heads-up - I'll look into it further and let the guys in the local club know. RobG Hi again Rob, A couple of the lads from Toyworld nambour ( I got that wrong before it is a toyworld and not a Mr Toys,) come to the IPMS Meetings at Bris and had heaps so don't know how many are left, If you get stuck for one let me know and I will see if i can get you one. regards JimboD >> Hi Rob, Was in Mr Toys at Nambour ( Queensland, Aus) and they had >> heaps of them.
