The seller claims it's "unique" because of a printing error...maybe it's so... :rolleyes:
Owing to the current financial difficulties, the light at the end of the tunnel will be turned off until further notice.

Not a printing error, they just didn't put the sticker on the blue part saying what the kit was.

Well, no. I have many old KVZ/Plasticart kits and the aircraft name is printed (or better, in the printing profession slang, a "reserve",a not-printed zone in a printed background)

I have noticed that the Harry Potter train sets are now selling over £100 on eBay.  Prices for the "Hall Class" are also high.
Thought of painting one scarlet and buying the carriages separate.

I could buy a perfectly good car for what they want for this.

As it's 1/72 scale (Yeah right....) surely it would manage it in 0.16666666 parsecs?

That's still a long way.

I appreciated the bit in the new film where they misquote the record as "under 14 parsecs".  I corrected the error a split second before Han Solo did.  I guess that make me a a massive nerd...
