Who Lives in a box like this?

Okay - jumping on the band wagon!
You are probably not overly interested, but here is MY first new one of 2011 - Anyone want to guess what I bought pi**ed as a newt on Saturday night?

It's one of them "Box Kites"

ooow good one, Erm i Guess something EDF

M

I tried zooming in on the label for anything that gives it away.
That looks like a box wrapped in parcel wrapping rather than items in a box so it's not from fast lad.
I can't think of a heli that comes in a box that shape apart from a partly built Thunder tiger or something.I'm guessing it's a plane.
Mark it's over to you seeing as you get lot's of mail order stuff.Recognise the size of the box in relation to the chair in the background?
How heavy is the box Stubz?

Danny.

Good shout on the Heli, maybe a 500

M

Could we have some clues

Peter

T rex 250

Hope that was a joke Steve!


Okay clues - 1) Not from Fast Lad
2) All up weight of about 3000g 6.6lbs
3) IC powered
4) Sexy Blue box inside
5) not part built! - has to be totally pieced together!

Is it an Emu?

It's a Raptor.

Danny.

Only Raptors come in blue boxes.And some Durex flavours.

Yep, got to be a Rappy

Full Width of Fuselage(mm / in.) 5.51" (140mm)

Loads of bags and bits to play with!



Shiny too.........! Not for long though I bet!




Now - you hold this lot together with blue tac and sellotape right!?

Very nice mate.Are you planning to build it right away or is it a project to build as you collect all the bits?

Danny.

Going to have to be a "Build as I collect" job Im afraid - Sure there are a few bits I can start to piece together though!
I have already told the misses im hijacking the table for a while!

A word of advise with the table Stubz.Don't commit to a fixed amount of time on that table.
Building is like a fine wine.

Danny.

Cheers for the word of advice Danny - Im starting to realise this is going to be a bigger build than I thought, Iv got bloody bags within bags here!

No Andy you're thinking of Mark.

Danny.

Oh. Perhaps if building is like Red Wine, then does it go well with cheese?

Andy

Only if it's Cathedral and on toast.
Oh and with a sprinkle of Worcester sauce.

Danny.

Mmmm Bacon cooked until it goes crispy, popped on some nice granary bread, then covered in slices of brie, and put under the grill again to melt the brie. Add some cranberry jam when cooked, and then stuff yer face. Nice.

Andy

mmm Have you been on saturday kitchen recently andy?

Andy

- Thats not ordinary stuff on toast - Thats M&S stuff on toast!

Errr, nope. Mainly because I haven't got the foggiest what Saturday kitchen is!

I have, however, just finished eating some Carrot soup that was crafted by my own fair hands from a bag of carrots, an onion, some coriander seeds, and some black pepper.....

Andy

Ps. the bacon and Brie was from Sainsburys, and the cranberry sauce was from a farm shop in Cheshire, not far from my folks house....
