Regarding the Snipe. Forgive my ignorance, but, has Rowan produced a decal sheet for the late Snipe? Hope so!

Yes!  And a truly extravagant piece of artistry it is!

I have just clicked the button on a WNW 32004 - 1/32 Bristol F.2b Fighter. I would particularly like to build a model of Keith Park's mount, no 12. I probably should have held off as I have a number of other WNW kits to build already but with it being one of the earlier releases know I would kick myself if it sold out. Perhaps there is a stack of them still unsold, perhaps not. I just don't know. Will I have buyer's remorse? I very much doubt it.  ;)

I think at US$10 discount over the cost of the individual kits, and only one decal option for each, it just wasn't very good value. A marketing experiment?

I disagree! In the long run,it will become WNW rarest kit,because they probably wont reissue it in any shape or form.One for the collectors out there!

Perhaps. I have one with a fault - even rarer! You can have it for one billion dollars!

SOLD!

Thanks Des and Lance. That is encouraging. It may find its way up the build order.

I succumbed to the dark side...at least twice recently:

The new Tamiya mold F-16 in 1/72 scale and the latest Royal Class by EDUARD, well at least I got a WnW Bristol Fighter (still somewhere between NZ and BG thou)
