Airfix 1/76 Guards Colour Party

[Essex Boy]

I never owned a box of these chaps in my yoof and thought I'd missed the boat. Then, a few months ago I spotted in the Airfix catalogue that the set was to be re-released this Summer. Huzzah!

Hannants have just taken my money for a box (or three) in advance of the June issue date. I expect to be a very happy bunny next month.

I've always thought, and see no reasons to change my mind, that bands simply make the place look untidy.

Also you're not the most insane member of the forum

The re-release of these figures are going to piss ( sorry urinate ) on his parade.

I remember having the Guards and their band back in the day.
Never could get them to stand in straight lines due to my parents never allowing me to have a really sharp knife to cut them cleanly from the sprues. I wonder why.
