Thanks for looking! Colin 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hardtarget Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 Looks good. I think we can retire the Airfix grand slam boxing now. Any idea on price Col? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not yet, should have an idea in a coupls of weeks, do not expect it to be that that though. The doors will also be available seperately.

gruffy Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 Hi Colin, are you supplying the conversersion with decals? Regards Gareth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevehnz Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 Looks good. I think we can retire the Airfix grand slam boxing now. Any idea on price Col? Not 'till Colin does a GS set as well, I'll maybe grab one of these to go with my GS version, those plus a Dambuster would sew 617sqn up just nicely for me.

avro683 Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 (edited) That looks good Colin. Can't make Hendon this year, will you be at Coventry? Edited April 30, 2013 by avro683 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin @ Freightdog Models Posted April 30, 2013 Author Share Posted April 30, 2013 That look good Colin. Can't make Hendon this year, will you be at Coventry? Hi Tony, yes will be there. Will also have a seperate set of unweighted smooth wheels for the Lancaster, ones in the kit are a bit deflated. Treaded ones should follow soon after.

Geoff_B Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 Looking forward to getting this set, one suggestion however if its designed for the new Airfix Dambuster howabout doing a cradle to adapt the upkeep trolly for the Tallboy and then the Grand Slam should you do it ?
