...It's surprising what you find when you're not looking...
I popped into Manchester yesterday to look for a battery pack for my 35mm camera.

Whilst I was there, I dropped into the model shop with the intention of *browsing only*.

Look what I found...

It cost me nearly twice as much as it should have done because I then had to buy my daughter something to even the score...

(Her rule, not mine - If I buy *me* a toy, I have to also buy *her* a toy).

Regards
Mark

Not a lot of choice, we were home alone...

...Not a case of that, just guilt. I can't be seen to be buying toys *just* for me, can I?

:o :o :o

I saw that on HLJ, I really wanted to get it but I already have a prettty hefty backlog of models.

That's my favorite car from Sega Rally 2, looks really cool and must be a joy to build.

Have fun!

I may start this one when I've completed my current project (Tamiya Sard Supra).

...Gotta admit, I'm looking forward to it.

...Err, yeah. They only got them in on Wednesday or so I was informed.

They had about 5 in stock at the time, at £17.99.
