Vandalized pole-mounted 1957 F.6 Hawker Hunter fighter plane outside the derelict Humbrol/Airfix factory on Hedon Road, Hull.

Administrators moved in on 30th August 2006 making 31 of the company's remaining 41 employees redundant after "severe cash flow pressures" and disruption of supplies from parent company Heller of France, which was also insolvent. Since then the factory has closed completely and been boarded up after a number of fires.
