Hi Tim,

Very similar to the Leonardo shop I found in the alley behind McD in Akihabara.

I got kitphobia and came out with nothing on the first day...just overwhelmed with the choices and not enough luggage space. :disappointed:

Cheers,
Richard

There must have been a post office somewhere

There must have been a post office somewhere :smiling3:

Ya like everybody speaks English there.:thinking: Getting directions at train stations can be chaotic with sign language and lots of pointing at maps and knowing how to pronounce the name of your destination. Arigatogozaimas.

Cheers,
Richard

[Mr Bowcat]

As a result of a small lottery win, I've bought two off my wish list - delivered this morning by postie
One second hand........................

One from John at SMS - fast service as always.
I've been eyeing this up ever since it came out................
A year or so ago, I made the basic Gaz Tiger, by Meng
It'll be interesting to see the differences in manufacture & presentation ( if I can get into the stout Zvezda box!!! )

( if I can get into the stout Zvezda box!!! )

I noticed that with my recent Zvezda kits. Even worse, once you actually manage to get in it the inner box seems to magically swell and is a real bugger to get back into the shiny outer carton :smiling5:

Andy,
pretty post office proof! Just compare the Zvezda boxes with Revell!!!!

Hi all

I had discovered it's release a few months ago, with absolutely no need for it, but a colleague persuaded me it was an absolutely essential purpose despite the fact I have no room for it in the cupboard.

I know they weren't used for long in Normandy but I thought it be something different from the usual run of the mill stuff (Si - I hope you agree). A quick peak in the box bodes well for the build!!

Special thanks to John at SMS for the following reasons:

• 5% supporters discount (thank you indeed);
• ordered 11:40pm Thursday with error on delivery address;
• he corrected the error at 7:24am the following morning (Friday);
• arrived at work Monday morning!
