There are a few going on ebay, and I wanted to get your opnion on buying them!
From the pictures they look well built, but you never can tell!
They are going silly cheap at the moment, like £10! You couldn't get the kits for that!
What do you reckon, should I go for it?

I'd be worried about damage during shipping..

I'd be worried about build quality in general. Before I'd bid, I'd ask for about 2 dozen pics from every possible angle.
Though if it's that hard to come by, you could just "disassemble" it. :eek: ;)

I can see your concern guys! But considering they are built models for less than the cost of a kit, can I go wrong? Even if I have to glue a few bits back on!
I just have to ask if I'll love them like my own! Maybe they'll always be viewed as adopted!
A bit like a die-cast, the novelty wears off quickly!
I'll see how the bidding goes!

I would'nt get them.....i just like all my models to be my own and ones i have made.
It would gut me if some one came around and started going on about how "cool" one looked that i hadn't done. :( :(

Yeah, that was the fear I was having, that I wouldn't love them and cherish them as my own!;)
OK, models ignored!:D

To me it seems like cheating. That and I think it takes all the fun out of models. Just my 2 cents.

Considering nobody had a nice word to say anout getting these kits, the obvious choice is not to bother!
just wish I had the time to get back into making mine!
Have to get busy over Xmas!:D
