ade rowlands Posted July 14, 2018 Share Posted July 14, 2018 Well that’s the kit pre ordered, convinced my folks it would make a great Christmas present. Somehow though I’ve ended up paying to send them to Dubai for their 40th wedding Anniversary next year, what kind of crazy Jedi Mind trick got played on me here? Just cost me 3 Lanc kits at full retail price. *shakes head* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bomber_County Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 ade, I’d thought you would al least sent them business class. That’s probably about around 11 Lancs @ £350. Then double it........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I joined the Facebook group and found the thread and registered my interest there and sent the deposit via PayPal. There was a good number of people wanting one on there so I doubt I’ll be in the initial batch as I was like 90th post on that thread or something similar but that’s the best price I’d seen and i’m In no great hurry for the kit but thought I’d best secure one. I hadn’t heard of the shop before but they do have some good prices on things and as there’s a brick and mortar shop to back the online business up I had no qualms giving them my deposit.

Thanks Ade, the site that I found is veteranus.co.uk! Not sure if it is the same as your facebook group but I’ve sent them a message to find out.

Smeds Posted July 24, 2018 Author Share Posted July 24, 2018 Yes Tony, sorry I'm a bit late in my reply, and I see Ade has beaten me to it lol. The ladies at Veteranus are brilliant. Great comms, fast & well packed delivery. They do auctions at weekends on FB. Most if not all of the stuff they sell is discounted and usually includes free postage. Highly recommended.

Guest Maxim Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 This should keep everyone's spirits up while you wait for the kit to arrive. Enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lancman Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 (edited) Hannants have it at £359.99 that's £140 more than I paid for the B17=F and it is coming with the following markings seemingly. Markings will be included for 3 aircraft comprising R5868 OL-Q Queenie, R5868 PO-S Sugar W4783 AR-G.

That is more than $470 U.S. That can't be the actual retail or they won't sell as many of those I'll wager. I can spring for something in the low 300's, but not that.

Tony C Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 deposit paid, wonder how much the aftermarket stuff is going to cost? Eduard Brassin engines Eduard Brassin Cookies and 1000lb’ers Eduard Big-Ed Master gun barrels RAF Air and Ground crew in various poses (no dog or pilots ‘shooting a line’ please) Then there’s the vehicles, tractor and bomb train, Refueller, crew bus, ambulance, the list goes on! If I ever get to build a full squadron of Lancaster’s, I think that this is going to cost me more than just money Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
