Justin, sorry to hear the retailers in the UK are behaving badly. I have found that Ryan's prices are very close to the amount I pay when ordering from the US, what with exchange, duty, shipping etc. but with a lot less hassle, and I can sneak the models into the house when "Mom's" out, to avoid any incidents.
I agree, these WWII models are irresistible and addictive, I'm trying to limit them to one per type but I blew that with the two F4's and if I ever see the RN variant I know that number will rise. I would like a couple more JU87's and a few FW190's and at least two of the B25's.
I can hardly wait for Wed. so I can see my 262 and the Corgi Mossie.
I thought of another one I'd like, how about a Douglas SBD Dauntless. With canopies open perhaps?
I'm almost afraid of what will come out next year!
