          Thanks! It’s the Bandai kit with some added custom electronics and lighting, all the lighting and sound is wirelessly controlled from a phone over Bluetooth. I know, I need to get out more.

                Think its about time you bought a PC that does not run on steam power or has valves.

                            That’s superb Nick, great all round finish. I’m just building my first ever Ban Dai kit and I’m hooked
