Think I had that kit as a kid, or it might have been one that I fantasised over buying in a local newsagent, back when you could do such a thing.
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.

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

I might add that between them OGL and Howard of Effingham bought out the ENTIRE stock of the avialiable Airfix Valiant conversion sets at the show!  :o
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)
