Hi Jim and as they say welcome aboard, it's would have been rude of me to have just walked past and left them behind and for £9.00. Have to admit it's larger than I thought it was going to be.Hi Pete
I noticed you had bought this in the Latest Aquisitions thread - bargain at under a tenner Looking forward to seeing it built.
Jim
Hi Paul sorry I've lost my whistle to pipe you're bored sir . Thought I'd have a go to floaty thing kind of lost my way with the armour at the minute.Pete,
Looking forward to this.
Hi Dave some of the bigger parts have 2018 moulded in to them and the box has the same printed on it, the parts have a tiny bit of flash and just a few seam lines on the smaller parts but overall very good.I remember making the OLD Revell PT-109 when I was a teenager - more like a toy, than a real model! The new tooling looks pretty good!!!
Dave
Hi Ron thanks for the vote of confidente, I'll try my best.Pete, I'm sure you will do a great job on the boat and I look forward to watching further progress.
Have you read about PT. 109 when J.F. Kennedy was it's skipper? One great story of survival and rescue.
Like Dave, I too made this Revell vessel way back, gawd knows how long ago.
I found it hiding in my loft in 2012. I repaired it and put it on a seascape here at S.M. the same year.
Fond memories and thanks for re-kindling them.

Well said you cant have Parrots running around on a war ship if one is found it will become Christmas dinner and I don't think there will not be a shortage of volunteers to stuff it .....leave the Bl***y Parrot ashore, 453!
Thanks Pete any more.I don't know if these are any use Pete, but this is PT-617, a sister boat, in Battleship Cove:
