    I swear my finger did the clicking. This just came in the post. Couldn't resist the price including delivery charges came up to less than 20 quid from a LHS up north.

    It's huge, comes with two parts of destruction sheets, interior, masking sheet for clear parts, flaps work and very fine engraved detail. Now it's left to see if the fit is good. But it's one ugly bird that's still good looking in it's own way.
    Don't know when I'll get the time to build it. Swore not to get any more stuff and it took just one click and four days to break it.

    Cheers,
    Wabble

              Hi guys!

              Since giving up modelling and selling all my models and equipment, I had one regret only.. and that was, I bought a Meng DR9 Bulldozer and totally
              fell in love with it, but I didn't start on it at the time as someone told me to hold off on it. so I did and it was sold with the rest of my stuff.

              but.. (yes there is a point to this) I've finally found a way to 'scratch that itch'. I just bought a lego-clone Bulldozer, it's huge and has
              2826 pieces and three thick manuals. I just wanted to show it to someone before I get started. (got it in sale too!)

              (note to mods: I guess this might be off topic as its not sprues, so I'll understand if you have to delete this)

                  If you have to build it, then it is still a model...

                                I've decided on traditional colours for my Land Rover build, Limestone over Pastel Green:

                                I've got enough to paint a fleet :tears-of-joy:but at least I know the colours are correct and it works out so much cheaper per ml than "model paint"
