Hey all,

If you're looking at getting a TSR.2 locally, try Great Models.  I've managed to place a preorder for 4.  For all those who've offered me one from the UK, I appreciate it - let's see where this leads for now.

Well if you have the plans for the warehouse I have the balaclavas  B)

Yes, and how would we move 4800 TSR.2's, how would we split the loot???  :P

Well, thats another 100 for Lee, about 50 each for the rest of us. Anything left over can go on Ebay to pay for the lorry we'd need to shift the lot!

Seriously, I have another TSR.2 kit to pass on to a lucky person thanks to my local shop getting me one. Cost £17 plus postage. Drop me a line if interested.

Oh smeg! In a warehouse still?
Man, I am going to have one seriously INSANE customer by the time those arrive..he only asks me like ONCE A WEEK if the TSR2s are in yet!
lol
Well, if I could spring for the airfare, I'd spring for the lorry and storage rental until "we" could move em all...hehehehehe
Shades of the "Great Train Robbery" eh?


"In the news..Several balaclava wearing men broke into a warehouse in Southhampton today. Authorities are stating several thousand model airplanes appear to have been the target, and several large lorries were later found abandoned nearby. Witnesses claim to have heard several accents, including American, Canadian, New Zealander, Australian, and even Yorkshire, although the last is highly suspect. If anyone knows the whereabouts of these models or the suspects, please call the Ministry of Truth at..." :lol:  :lol:

So for those of us in the U.S., when will we get our orders from Hannants?  I shot them an email a week ago and haven't gotten any reply.  I had a confirmation from them that I was on the pre-order list, but nothing yet.  Not that I'm going to build the darn thing any time soon, I just want to get it in my grubby little mits!
