Cos Aliens is an 80s film innit.

Ah yes, but set in 2179. I have my OCD hat on.

Got to love how playwear, paint & moulding variants can give each of these supposedly identical figures their own unique personalities:

Just finished building this

A vintage Matchbox 1:72 scale Bell Huey-Cobra 2 colour kit,

... pure nostalgia trip as this recreates the first ever model kit I ever owned.

Crikey, how basic it looks compared to today's Kits!

Aye, according to a book about vintage Matchbox kits, even back in August in 1973 Scale Models magazine rated the kit as "being rather disappointing" & any of the modern kits of the pre-painted easy build variety would knock this into a cocked hat.

I'm drawn to these old Matchbox kits purely for sentimental reasons.

They might have been, but to a 7 year old boy they were marvelous.
