Question about Matchbox kits

[Weaver]

I had the Arrow too, when I was a kid. It was originally a Rosebud Kitmaster mould and Airfix got it along with the rest when they bought their railway stuff.

A few years ago, Jack Duckworth on Coronation St. was rebuilding an Arrow and while the story was running, someone advertised one in the Autotrader as "Ariel Arrow JDS (Jack Duckworth Special)"

My apologies, I should have said "another one".  I keep getting sniped on the Matchbox Exeter and it's fostered bitterness. 

Same here! I managed to get a San Diego a while back, but the Tiger and Exeter are always bumped too high at the last minute.

Some of the Japanese manufacturers do those USN AAA cruisers (Atlanta class?) like the San Diego, so unless the Matchbox one is in a unique configuration, you don't actually need it to have one.

It would be nice to see the Wellesley, like the recent Heyford release.

Agreed!
