The Xtrakits Sea Vixen is getting closer, but they are really teasing us. A
few weeks ago they put the boxart up on the page with a bit of blurb saying
it was due in "early May". Well now it's late May and it's not yet here,
but Hannants have put up pictures of the box contents.

What a tease! :-D

I just saw in one of the Brit magazines that someone has a 1/48 scale
Sea Vixen due this year. I guess I better start saving now! I've got
the vacuform kit (I can't recall who did it right now) in the stash
and have made some attempts at sanding out the parts, but a move from
Pennsylvania to Tennessee put that on hold for awhile.

I think MPM are advertising a 1/48th Sea Vixen. I have one on advance
order from Hannants.

I made the Dynavector Sea Vixen a little while ago and it's a great kit.

So that's a 1/48 Sea Fury by Trumpeter and a 1/48 injection Sea
Vixen...I'm assuming the 1/48 injection Scimitar is only a few days away
then???

It has arrived at the shop and, as I expected, has gone straight in at
Number 1 !

I should be getting my two in a few days. Woohoo! :-D
