Was slightly disappointed with the price - more expensive than my pocket money can afford in one hit. Will have to wait for this kit (along with the myriad of others that I want) and watch as others build. Stevepd 1
Kapiti Kid Posted July 25, 2022 Posted July 25, 2022 I'd love one, but the exaggerated surface detail is putting me off a bit. The wings in the kit seem to be covered in rivets, but even from close up the finish on the real thing is as smooth as a baby's bum. There's one on display in a museum about 6 km down the road from where I live, so I know. Price for me (from Hannants) is the local equivalent of US$122. High, but doable (if my wife doesn't notice). npb748r and Stevepd 2

I've been caught too often and these kit manufacturers tend to keep growing the size of the boxes the "kids toys" (her words) come in which makes it hard to smuggle in without being noticed. Thankfully I'm of an age where the punishment of withholding conjugal rights has zero impact on me now . MikeC, Christoffer Lindelav, Shoggz and 6 others 1 8
Rick Griewski Posted July 28, 2022 Posted July 28, 2022 I just pulled the trigger. Maybe the ole Matchbox kit can be moved on. Uncarina 1

Received my email, order placed with a few other goodies, dragged down my builders kit of the Venom - probably started it about forty years ago before I discovered the delights of going out - from the attic, hopefully it'll allow me to produce something like... Very exciting. MikeC, Uncarina, npb748r and 1 other 4
