Airfix Lightning IIB
I was visiting my local model shop. I really wanted to make a purchase, but I was struggling to find a "pocket money" sized treat for myself. That is an infrequent purchase bouncing around the £10-£20 mark that is not a major purchase. I looked and looked but was about to give up hope. Then I saw an Airfix starter kit of the new RAF (RNAS?) Lightning IIB that is supposed to be equipping the Royal Navy's HMS Queen Elizabeth CV and maybe at some time in the future HMS Prince of Wales CV [or just a spare trans-shipping deck?] too (see below. she is a quirky looking bird but like the Typhoon I should really get one and find an unused piece of ceiling to hang it from):

How valuable are your old model kits and collections?
Here is one way to find out (see below, an evaluation site, discretion assured):

Hmm, part of me does not want to know. On the other hand if you want to be tempted to buy look at the auctions!
