Happy Memorial Day!
If you are a friend 'outside the US', Memorial Day is a US Federal Holiday (Monday is the holiday) in celebration of the people who died while serving in the country's armed forces. (not to be confused with Veterans Day - remembering the people who are US Military veterans)
Hello Eagle Editions!
Kitlinx is a proud supporter of this company. We have now IN STOCK the entire line of EagleParts, Eagle Editions Books, and the 1/32 and 1/48 decals from EagleCals
Aircraft Skies
The hottest kit of the week was 1/48 F-5E Tiger II Fighter from Kitty Hawk
Closely followed by Wingnut Wings 1/32 Junkers D.I
Armor Mud
The hottest armor kit of the week is one of these two Panda's marvelously ugly kits
Book Worm
I announced last week that Kitlinx connected to a major Book Distributor. I've been working "feverishly" to connect the book-codes to ours, which is not easy for books as each title has to be searched. There will be 1,100 in stock titles added to the website, and an additional 700 'drop ship' titles from the East Coast. I'm hoping to have this update available next week
Did you know you needed 101 tips for WW II propellers?
