I've never even opened the box!

It's my pride and joy amongst the other Triumph stuff I have.
Like this Bar Rag stolen from a real British Pub and sent to me!

Looks great Jim. Should send a pic to the makers of these diecast aircraft. Maybe get one sent to you for free.

Wow Jim! That looks great.

I like that light fixture. Do you recall who makes it?
I've got my Hallway torn to hell and back and am ready to start installing the drywall and stuff.
We were looking for a nice light fixture and I like yours.
It would be perfect for that area.

Thanks Chris but tbh I've seen a few collections that would put mine to shame.

I've still three empty shelves and a few of the others still have space left so I estimate the collection has some room for growth yet....in fact a Harrier FRS.1 and a Sea King from Mount Pleasant, Falklands arrived today so I'll be posting a further update picture when I return home tomorrow

They came from B&Q Jeff, not sure if they are in the US but I'm sure you'll have a lot more variety and choice than we get in the UK

They're about four year old now and iirc this is the latest replacement/design:

The other bedrooms are much larger so I fitted them with four in-line designs similar to this:

Ah, Thanks Jim.
After a quick search seems Zorbo are only in the UK.
Shame as they have some killer designs!
I may have to do a 'rip off' copy.

I have a nice Chrome Baby Moon hub cap that could be drilled for the base.
Then buy a few add-on swivel lights to kind of duplicate the design.

It would be perfect for the Hallway as it's not really a hallway per say.
(And I know when Steve gets back he'll bitch because I spelt per say wrong!

)

Have just seen "How it's made on" tv. On todays show it was how steam engine was made(toy)

In the program a various model was shown and when they demonstrated

I remember my friend, which I have mentioned before. It's not a Diecast model, but I do know, that he do not have this model. Or maybe he does, haven seen him since 2009.
