    I put it as Germany and send them a reply to the order confirmation. So either I get the kit or my money back... see we will what happens next we shall.
    Well I just got a mail from PayPal saying that my money is being sent back to the account. So I guess Revell do not consider DK as an EU land either.

        That's weird :thinking:.....
        Obviously Revell need to reassess their opinions on borders:flushed:.

          I once made a Tie fighter for a mates' kid ( on a pint commission ) - that's as far as Star Wars models had interested me, but 3D printing has thrown open a new avenue. I have files for a Tie Fighter Interceptor, and a Tie Fighter X1, from FAB365 https://fab365.net/
          Strange little models, the body is printed in one piece, then folded....................

          this has intrigued me, I'll be printing out the bits for the Interceptor ( I'd no idea that there were any TF variants ) & putting up a short blog............
          ps - if you watch the video - note the liberal use of CA to fit the black panels - he never gets himself stuck to the parts! - If I did that I'd end up with some unusual false fingernails!

            Okay:
            Standard TIE in the movies
            TIE Interceptor in 'Jedi'
            TIE 'Special' flown by Vader
            TIE Defender in 'Rebels'
            TIE Bomber in' Empire'
            Oh yeah, the V-Wing and Jedi Starfighter sort of count as kind of TIE prototypes / forerunners

            Think that's all the TIE variants that appear onscreen, movies or TV. There are dozens more in games, comics and other stuff, and some of them are REALLY stupid, like the TIE tank. I kid you not
            Note, I didn't include the 'red' jobs from the sequels, because that's just a lazy paint job

              Being ignorant of Star Wars - I did wonder about some of the strange things I found! :thumb2:

                Oh yeah, almost forgot one. The yellow 'clip-wing' TIEs used by the Mining Guild and appearing in Rebels. They're missing the front two wing triangles, which would, of course, give the pilot a better view! Someone thought that through!

                  I know there is no daft question…. But when you finish a build in a group build do you leave it in your build post or add it to the completed builds section

                  Why is common sense not so common?

                    Generally it goes in the relevant completed section, in the group build sub section

                    So completed sci fi > completed group builds.
