Sooooo tempted but time and where the heck to put such a humongous model!!!!

Ooooops we've gone way off topic, but, at least it's about modelkits

I was too busy playing football to have time to glue bits of plastic to my fingers.

I suppose I didnt realise that there were other companies knocking out the same, or better models. I am not really in the scene, I just remembered grandad bringing them over for me when I was a chisler. And being absolutely esctatic about it.

If there are still those kit things out there, well, that's ok

Carry on...

Would you go away out of that Ulster. When its battering down rain, howling wind, dark at night, the old pair have the bloody news on or something, and you are sitting there with a cup of tea, its class getting out the pointy fighter jets and attaching on the sidewinder missiles and all.

The only perfectly scaled model I want to get my hands on is..........

[Red ones]

Rumour has it Hornby are putting a new business model trogether to help cement the firms future. No rumour yet that operations are to be scaled down
