Just got my first months subscription in, and couldn't wait to put this issue together once I saw how BIG and heavy this is. I placed a can of Seltzer next to the tire to give a sense of just how big this is going to be. The can is 4-7/8 tall(120mm). The paint is excellent and the quality of the parts is top notch! Here are some pictures. All comments appreciated. Barry   Building - DeAgostini HMS Victory, McLaren MP4-23, Suzuki GSX1300R Hayabusa, Harley Davidson Fat Boy, Lamborghini Countach

Barry I can see you are going to get some great pleasure from building this one. It seems Deagostini are using a similar packing method for this one as they are the D-51 model I am collecting. It's very well thought out In my view. Happy modelling Tony Happy Modelling

Thanks MR T, thanks Tony The real hard part is coming. Do I add the Spitfire in Nov, or wait for the Lamborghini, or wait for the Harley?  What a great dilemma to be in! Building - DeAgostini HMS Victory, McLaren MP4-23, Suzuki GSX1300R Hayabusa, Harley Davidson Fat Boy, Lamborghini Countach

Since I'm in a bit of a stall on my other builds, I thought I'd work a little bit on the Busa. I gotta say this is one quality model.     Building - DeAgostini HMS Victory, McLaren MP4-23, Suzuki GSX1300R Hayabusa, Harley Davidson Fat Boy, Lamborghini Countach
