Hannants have  the AW.52 in stock, just short of  £46. It's a  bit steep  for me so hopefully I can  find a better deal somewhere else, as I do like the look of it.

Either they've already sold out, or they haven't actually got them there yet as it's listed as a zero stock level item.

I've backordered one anyway, the hell with the price.   ;D

I may end up doing  the same  Kit, it didn't  show stock levels  etc in the news letter  just the price. Lets hope it goes together  better than your  last Micro mir kit...Kit.  ;D

In my local hobby store there are 4 in stock and are being sold for € 39,95 or 35,38 pounds...

I guess the import fees are to blame for the difference  :banghead:

that is a heck of a difference, does your  LMS post to the UK? The postage shouldn't be too steep from there.

But now you have to take into account the added VAT and the duty AND the blasted 'handling charge' if importing from Europe!  :banghead:

Well, in pain of being too political you can all blame BREXIT for that...   :banghead:

Sheer bloody-mindedness on both parts more likely. :(

Probably a darn site lighter than the A&V Resin kit I built Kit  ;D
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Hmmm.....
I really want one of these, and it could be  the last kit I buy for quite some time  too , it looks nice  on the sprue, but most do, I  think I will have one but not just  yet as I am  sorting out  everything I need for a new arrival of the furry  kind. :thumbsup:

Chris (NARSES2) could you please delete my posts #220 and #222 in this thread as I've copied them to a proper build thread elsewhere.
