I've been softening up SWMBO.  I even asked her which she liked best, early or late.  I'm in regardless of price.

Don't forget that overseas buyers have a very good deal (assuming there is no customs or other duty to pay - I don't know the extent and frequency of this) on these WNW kits. I pay the same price even when the kit is handed to me over the counter by one of the WNW lads.

Don't know if I can or will stretch to a Felixstowe (price and storage) but of the larger types the forthcoming AEG is probably more appealing at the moment and more manageable.

Cheers,

'tiny' DH2 is giving me a run for my money anyhow.

We almost always get hit with customs duties (20%) and the parcelforce "release fee" of around UK £8 on top.  SO for a "basic" kit like a Pup, this is around £17 in total.

The AEG is a "must-have" for me, the Felixstowe a "maybe"

I'm the other way round Bertl - given that I mainly choose models by the look rather than any historic preference, the Felixstowe is worth saving my pennies for!

It'll be interesting how many iterations of the AEG they release...

What a blow hard....don't trust a word this guy says, gents....I've met his darling wife and there's no "obeying" about it.....he was following her around repeating, over and over, "how high, Honey"??". (If he hadn't been down on all fours it wouldn't have been so embarrassing.)

She is a gem and I'll bet she's ordering him BOTH F'stowes for Christmas!

Hmm...I think that award goes to the guy on eBay who is currently selling his 14th WNW H-B W.29.   :) 
Somebody did some serious model speculation there!  No wonder they sold out so quickly.

I'd like to se the version that was equipped with a 20mm cannon in an armoured nose turret.

I see WNW have released an Early Felixstowe. Kit 32050. An interesting selection of colour schemes.
