A PROPELLING ARGUMENT

Hello

The UK Revell Catalogue of 1961/62, price 6d, offered these kits. see attached

In 1960 a classmate of mine turned an Airfix Bloodhound kit into a propelling pencil.

Our teacher of course confiscated it! I wonder if David Allen ever had it returned?

  1. my point exactly, look at those cool designs and what do Airfix give us? I found a partly made Moonship recently which is now hanging from my ceiling! Bill

  2. I love those illustrations in the catalogue Terran. Gorgeous work. Did the propelling pencil fly?

    Some of these models have been re-issued over the years. I have the recent Atlantis re-issue of the Revell Nike Hercules SAM. Looking forward to building it at some point.
