HansReggelsen Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 There is NO way I'll ever buy this - I still have nightmares about those Things from way back when I was a little kid in school and we had to try to jump over them! Oh - the horror! On the other hand, I probably wouldn't have any trouble jumping over this one and once and for all get over those trauma from my childhood! Hmmm.....

pigsty Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 This is a salutary reminder that, when we berate manufacturers for still not producing a 1/48 Farley Fruitbat C(F).Mk.3A, we're looking at it from the wrong end of the telescope. Still bloody odd, though, as it suggests 1/12 schoolgirls in gym kit must be in someone's catalogue somewhere ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 Apparently so... so far I've resisted the urge to request any review samples though. Would they look out of scale with 1:16 stuff? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
