Jan Zwart Thanks Jan I am glad you have received the info I have sent out the good news to all members who have paid the deposit, as they will get the first production run. I will be posting this information to all members on the forum who may be interested in obtaining this enhancement, and I think I will be posting on my Victory build Diary, but not sure yet Kind regards Mike MWG BUILD DIARIES: HMS VICTORY, SOVEREIGN OF THE SEAS, SAN FRANCISCO II, HMS HOOD, HMS ENDEAVOUR LONGBOAT, HMS VICTORY X-SECTION, 007 DB5, NISSAN GTR, CUTTY SARK, RB7, AKAGI, BARK HMS ENDEAVOUR, HUMMER H1, MITSUBISHI ZERO.

Hi Mike Thanks for the email, the pictures of the enhancement looks great on your build but I have the same problem as Benny, in that most of the gallery has already been fitted on my build. Will there be any problems with, or indeed, how do I go about removing the parts I have already incorporated into my build? Happy building David
