Hi all, from sunny OXFORDSHIRE.
To celebrate V.E. Day, have any members got any pictures of W.W.2 related machines that they would like to show us?

Nice picture Cliff, I haven't seen a B.M.Co Aeroplane before with eight planes? Here is mine, plus another 1930s machine. I think that they must have done well in the arcades up to and during the war.

A great collection Paul, here is an auto-payout version of your BMCo Airplane, not quite WWII or spitfires but nevertheless lovely aircraft castings.

Some great looking machines there Paul. I've put the Spitfire and the Victory Cups in the Museum (under your name). I could identify the Spitfire from the top flash on this example from the WW1 and WW2 related machines topic:

Do we know what the similar allwin with the gold aircraft is called (in your first post, 3rd picture)?

Looks like it has a worn decal right in the centre that says "AIRPLANE". :o

:o :o :o Are we looking at the same machine? I still can't see it. But I can see "Defiant" (followed by "Reg Design"), which I recall now is what it's called. I've put it in the Museum.

Hi all,
Yes PM, it's a giant Olly Whales machine called DEFIANT. The other, smaller, one is indeed the SPITFIRE and the last one I purchased. I thought this one was rare-ish, but have since seen about four, one being a front that was on flea bay for months. It must have sold in the end.
