I was asked about Ship kits in my LHS, so here's what they've got. In addition to these, there are in-production Airfix kits which I havn't listed 'cos you can get them anywhere. Some of these kits have a "started" label on them but have been re-sealed, so I wasn't about to ask them to open them on-spec. If you're interested in one, I'm sure they would do though. Some of them may also be subject to a 10% discount, but I've never figured out what is and what isn't, to be honest.

If anybody wants any of these, PM me and I'll pick them up and post them at cost.
