I could hazard a guess as to the content of PB's PM.....:)

All I'll say is that I've bought a decal sheet off Air Graphics' e-bay shop with no problems & actually a nice personal reply with the item - unusual for e-bay sellers!

I intend to buy a couple of the 'Special Weapons' he has listed next month when the credit card has recovered from this month's thousand quid expenditure on the car, so we'll see if that goes as well!

Of course whether the list of intended releases comes to pass remains to be seen, I hope they do as there's a fair bit of stuff I'd like aswell!

Yes I think I know what the contents will be.
I will give things a go and see what happens; I want the 'nuke' for the CF-104, Canada's nuclear threat?!?!??

I want the 'nuke' for the CF-104,

He's got two different ones used on 104's, I want one for a CF-104 and the earlier one for a Bentwaters F-101! :)

Hmmmmm, I am seeing a theme for a model collection - nuke jet fighters!?

I wonder how Valom is planning to do their version of the nuke 101??

OK; ordered on 29th (Aug) rec'd today so 8 days after order items in my hands! That's pretty darn good service IMHO!!
A bit of a back story, tried the evil bay page and just let me say I hate evil bays cart!! I feel evil bay has gotten fat & lazy & I think Gary agrees after we had an email chat about the 'ease' of evil bay shopping!?! I ordered from his on line store site and there was a bit of a hiccup wrt the shipping costs, Gary fixed that quickly! I am slowly moving away from the evil bay, what with their poorly organized cart, their reluctance to talk directly about problems, their extreme lack of common sense & that, sorry can't think of a better word, stoopid international shipping fiasco!!!
OK I've down off the soap box and feel a bit better?!

The merchandise; the standard quick look after ripping open the outer package revealed some very nice resin bits!!! I picked up the Mk 43 nuke, dual bomb racks for the CF-104, the Victor conversion & the Vicom camera. See that CF-104 theme in there? The dual bomb racks look very nice, delicately molded with a set of bombs also with delicate fins!! The rest of the resin is in the same ball park!!
I'm happy with this and will be ordering more items down the road!!
Cheers
