I agree with you Patrick although I don't believe this would make a meaningful difference over an EUR 500 price.

BTW I look forward to the 48th version, hopefully with the possibility to give up the figures.

My copy arrived yesterday. You may not have had time to examine all the parts in your kit yet, but unfortunately mine had some damage to the edge of the cockpit nacelle. As the packaging is extremely robust, I can only think that something unlucky happened during packing.

I have mailed Lukasz and asked if he can supply a replacement. It is a little time consuming with a model of this size, but it would be good advice to unpack and check all the parts.

Good to know. I haven?t checked all the parts yet as daily business is keeping me busy. But the nacelle is one of the few parts I already have inspected and it is fine. That doesn?t mean, of course, that there can?t be other damages somewhere else. So I?ll be back on it as soon as possible?

Hi all,
I've heard there are no bombs or racks supplied in the kit?

That?s right Mike??..they were never mentioned in the company news. It does seem a strange omission, but I suppose they have to stop somewhere even to keep the cost at ?500. We will have to rely perhaps on the aftermarket guys.
