Mine turned up yesterday. Tax man was clearly looking the other way, So even more reason to celebrate! In use, They feel light, comfortable & sharp! After the first few cuts, You adapt to them surprisingly quickly, & they have now supplanted the Xurons & even my favourite Tamiya side cutters as the de-facto clippers in the arsenel. Money VERY well spent!!!!!

Great reference pix, MagMan! & thanks to Julien, I'm now gonna have to buy the Gun, If only for completeness.... It's a great kit to put together, But the etch is like battleship armour! (ironic or what?!?)

Been sniffin' around these for months. Read review..... SOLD! & as a new member, I saved 3 bucks! (however much >that< is! )

Someone say "build thread"?!?!?

Part 2 is pretty much exclusively for the airwing, Part 3 is mainly the island & the CIWS areas.

Looking forward to this!

Just got back from watching them go over at Trafalgar Square. They came in over St. Martins in the Field & looked spectacular! BUT.... Where were the Drones that were supposed to be included?

Three observations: 1. GREAT stuff!!! 2. That grey camo has a very 'Russian' feel to it, Like a Yak or summink...? 3. I'm amazed you didn't use more Lead in that -509!! WOW, that's like a Black Widow, CoG-wise!

Now THIS i gotta see! Straight conversions are one thing: THIS?!?! Different ship AND scale?!?! Probably easier to convert it into a Spitfire..... Best of luck with this one, Mike!

How different is this from Alaska, Dave? Is it just a change of paint scheme, Or a more involved process? I've got Alaska, But can't find anyone else who's got both to compare with.

AAArrrrrrggghhhh!!!!!! I was enjoying this.... Please tell us it's all finished now, Andrew...?

1985. That awefully nice Thatcher harridan was midway thru office. George Michael had a girlfriend, & there was only 1 Back to the Future film. I was a newbie at a major office in the golden mile, & couldn't join the family on holiday. So... My dad gave me the keys to his E-Type for the afternoon (with him as passenger: summink about insurance?!?!), £100 cash & a holiday the following year. THAT JAG!!!!!! I was 17.... *sigh!* But the £100 (& the point of this typing) went on a new pair of shoes, Wendy burger (remember them?!?!), 2010 the year we made contact at the Empire Leicester Square & this kit from Hamleys. The 'dream job' was a nightmare so i left the following year, The shoes lasted a few more years, i'd guess the Wendy was 'in n out' overnight, & the memories of 2010 stayed with me til this day. Like whats left of the ol' M-247. Whats left of her is in my 'office' (middle room). think it's mainly the lower hull now. But reading this makes me want another one! Thank you for this build, It made a middle age man 17 again, & not in a Zac Effron kinda way! Now: TO EBAY!!!

I would honestly have drop-kicked this in the bin, But you have my sincere respect for both actually finishing it, & making such a respectable job of her.

REALLY liking this! Make me wanna get mine outta 30% completed mothballs. ( for shame, Prowler! for shame.....)
