Hi guys, Bit of a long shot, but does anyone have a list of what we will be getting in each partwork and in what order. I'm asking so that I can plan my time on this build (not started yet  ), as I have limited modelling space and I'm currently working on some 'N' gauge and 'OO' gauge bits and pieces for club layouts. Thanks Kev

Kevin, welcome to the magical mystery project.  When I used to ask my Mum "what's for pudding?" the answer was usually "Wait and see!"  I fear that this project is one HUGE "Wait and See"  . I've decided to work a month or two behind so I can see what's coming before I proceed, being used to "working ahead" before gluing in order to avoid the "elephant traps".  (And there would seem to be a few in this project already.) At one point I did wonder about storing all the parts for the 2 years then starting the build.  However, this would be very confusing choosing the right unmarked parts, and require a lot of self control, so I have chosen the "moderate laggard" method. I fear this sort of thing will be your only solution.  On the positive side you seem to have your "inbetween" problem solved. Laury

Hey guys,
Thanks for your replys, as I said at the beginning it was a long shot hoping for a list of parts LOL.
Tarbrush - I've solved my storage problem by aquiring through devious means a very large transport box/coffin of the type used by newspaper distributers (ask me no questions, I'll tell no porkie pies).
