Already out and sold out at Telford!  I think Thorvic said they sold 80 sets in 3 hours!!

Must, then, my projects bend to the iron yoke of a mechanical system? Is my soaring spirit to be chained down to the snail's pace of matter?

Including what looks to be the basis for an Armoured train !!!

Pity its only the 1/35th Armour rather than the full catalogue

Yes, but think of the value for money in terms of hours spent on the kit - I mean you can spend days and days having fun filling and sanding all those rivets....
