On the look out for Fine molds X-wing, TiE Interceptor and standard TiE

Might also be a chance to see if anybody has the Fantastic Plastic resin Star Wars kits (maybe Comet...?)  especially as it looks like Lucas arts appear to have put a stop to them !!!!.

Well thats a bugger!!! Does that mean Revell will be stopping production of thier SW vehicles as well?? Somehow the cynic in me thinks not!!

Revell and Fine Molds have paid the licensing fees so no problems there.  Lucas has been big on protecting the brand so any time a Garage kit comes out that uses Star Wars, they are in trouble.  Even the extended universe books have the authors clear their material beforehand.

Yeah, they've even gone after computer game mods, dating back to when modding first began 10 years or so ago.

Been thinking I really should get me an Airfix Nimrod - if anyone sees one going cheapish, let me know.

Since Trev has sorted me out, I'll be able to afford a Cammet AEW conversion to go with it :D
