....another week has gone by..... No shipment notice or tracking number and advised not to ask about the status. I did read the last email and sent an extra paypal donation to offset the postage increase. I know that doesn't accelerate anything already in transit but seeing other North American buyers receiving the kit last week has me wondering a little bit. I'm repeating myself, I know, but having purchased the top tier kit set early on I was hoping I'd have it by now......just jealous I suppose.... ::)
Well the good thing is it sounds like there should be a build thread on here as soon as you do get it...... ;)

I'm still struggling to decide which scheme to do on my standard boxing. There are many interesting choices.
100% I'll have that baby built asap! It will tke me longer figuring out how to post pictures here. Never did grasp that.

Wow! My kit just arrived in the post this lunchtime.

I cannot add anything to the superlatives already expressed. This is state of the art modelling.

Seemed a lot of money when first announced, but given the sums WNW kits have been achieving, this is actually a comparative bargain.

As Henry Royce said 'The quality remains long after the price is forgotten.'

I have also received the kit and it is really really nice. The parts look very sharp and I do not see any breakage, the instruction manual is fantastic, profiles and decals just all great.

My package arrived today and although I'd seen a lot of superlatives used to describe the contents of the box, I was not prepared to open it up and behold one of the best looking kits I've ever seen. Absolutely incredible in all aspects. Hopefully I can do justice to the Paul Baumer option.
Cheers,
Gary

Got back from a short trip and there it was! I can't add to the superlatives.

My kit arrived last thursday and what a jewel it is..... :)

Offcourse i will build the Jasta 14 machine n° 172 on the tail, seen on the photo's i provided to Richard for the kit.
That said, there are some other striking scheme's, and i'm sure many modeller will use one of these scheme's to build a fantastic model of the Pfalz D.VIII.

Regards

Danny
