There's a thread for it:

It's one I'd love to have a go at, there's plenty of info on the Reaction Engines site to build a model.  In 1/72 it'd be huge, nearly four foot long and well over a metre.  Even in 1/144, it'd be about two foot long.
I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.
