Issues 115 - 118 received today with the first lot of figures. Tomick's build diary suggests 3 officers and 5 crew but there was only the officers. Did everyone else get all eight?

Not to mention the cut away crew

Hi bugsec! Confused

Customer Services are wrong! I got the same 18 crew members as Karl got, the same parts as in Tomick's Official HMS Victory Build Diary - Issues 115 - 120 Contents list for each issue.

Quote:
Issue 118 - Contains parts for the final ship's boat - the Admirals barge: hull frame parts, planking & metal grating., and contains instructions for the hull construction of the barge, and the fitting out the barge, cutter and pinnace boats.
The first of the figurines are also included, (3 officers and 5 crew) along with a paint guide.

8 figurines supplied issue 118

Quote:
Issue 119 - Contains the first of Victory’s flags - The Union Jack for jackstaff, Union Flag for the main mast, Union flag for the main mast, White Ensign for the driver gaff, St George’s cross for the fore mast, chock support frames for the ship's boats & figurines., and has instructions for fitting the flags, and continues the fitting-out & exterior painting of the ship's boats, along with fitting the rudder chains and dummy guns.

5 figurines supplied issue 119

Quote:
Issue 120 - Contains the pennant & signal flags, 'Victory' name decal and figurine set., and has instructions for fitting the remaining flags, completing the launch, mounting the ship's boats and applying the 'Victory' name.

5 figurines supplied issue 120

Still waiting for the cut away parts and crew for a stand alone display.
