Probably over paid, but I really wanted it, so jumped back in!

Zach,

If you don't mind saying, what did you finally have to pay to get the set? How many other bidders were there?

It was just me and one other guy back and forth. I finally got it for $410. Too much, but haven't seen many around and really wanted it

I just added this Merkava tank and IDF soldiers to my collection. The Tank is an Academy kit.

Nice! Where did you get it? Who makes the figures?

 

[zblang]

The figures are Dragon I believe. I got it from someone on ebay. Took forever to get here all the way from Vietnam!

Aikens Airplanes is holding a Facebook contest:

https://www.facebook.com/pages/Aikens-Airplanes/105356212889885

Basically, participants are asked to make a brief post with a supporting pic, the two of which explain what it was that got you interested in aviation. The winner(s) will receive a nice model, Hobby Master's Israeli F-16A worth about $70. However, in the past there's been another little goodie buried in these contests. Regardless of whether you win or not, Aikens has extended a "coupon" code to folks who participated, ten or perhaps fifteen percent off of an order. In addition to diecast and plastic models, Aikens carries TG, JJD and CS figures and vehicles. I'm uncertain as to how much longer the contest will continue, but it started last Friday (I believe). If you're interested in a nice, free model or a $$$-off coupon, go for it! To enter, click on the Facebook graphic that says "What's your story?"

Speaking of Hobby Master, some new Israeli subjects have emerged in the last few months.

First, a truly snazzy Netz:

A second SUFA:

A PR Phantom:

And one that collectors are dying for, an F-15IRa'am, although it's as yet only available from HK:

If you want to collect Israeli warplanes, there's never been a better time!^&cool

Nice work on the Centurion tank John.

Any chance of a closer shot of the New Hope Designs figure?
