It was quite an investment Monica, but it looks like I'm in this for the long haul, so it's priceless if it stops me straining and making my eyesight worse.

Peter we used to have a fantastic local shop Plastic Pastimes , proper shop every manufacturer you could think of if it came in plastic chances were him and his wife could get one for you ,they also did a awfull lot of mail order, talking with them one day they asked what I thought was their best selling model ,after running out of idea's Tigers Spitfires etc. Was shocked to learn it was the revell London bus sold them as fast as he could stock them ,he went on to explane you could obtain or make your own decals for practically anywhere so as to make your own local bus company bus.

This is so true Dave as I have managed the same. A seller was offering a kit as a scrap/defective item, so I grabbed it for € 5 and less than a tenner with postage,

After an inventory of it, the kit was 100% complete and just a bit built. Another one where the seller said it was a scrap/defective kit,

Again, all sprues other than one are sealed. The cradle is built and had 2 handles broken off (they are in the box). Kit is 100% complete and was € 18 delivered to the door. Yeah, there goes my "No Kit" rule in the trash again, BUT, they were bargains from hell.........

Another box for the winter therapy pile.

Nothing special or exciting but for £12.50 delivered it will do for me. It also has 5 figures so I may try my hand at painting them. Expecting another much more interesting box to be delivered in the next couple of days.

I'm going to need a bigger shelf.

Looks a good kit, lots of parts and a bit of PE as well.
And it came with a free gift.

Too bad they are the same as the ones I have, but spares are handy.
