This sounds very interesting. Something that will interest nearly all modellers, something that might entice people into modelling and all complete in 12 months. Roll on 29th (what am I saying that's closer to going back to work). Looking forward to seeing what it might be, Happy Modelling

Well I for one probable will  week off work means I am "allowed" to stay up late Hi Tony, Hope you also had a good Christmas and hope the new year brings some good times too. My line of work just goes mental around any holiday time, so just get used to having very short breaks, except when I have my own holiday session, then it`s heavy play time for two weeks and recover slowly afterwards. Happy Building Regards delboy271155 (Derek) COME BACK GUY FAWKES "YOUR COUNTRY NEEDS YOU"

Alan And me. Just cannot think what it might be. That "complete in 12 months" bit is a teaser because it could mean 3 months of parts every month which would make it a very big build in a short space of time. Been looking through lists such as below to see if we have something tied to an historic anniversary - based on what I have read I think we will be getting 12 months worth of miniature whiskies to tie in with the first recorded batch of Scottish Whiskey in 550 ad (now that would appeal to most even if they are not presently into modelling  ) http://www.ianvisits.co....p;year=2015&all=yes
Then again it might be something completely different 2015 is the 200 anniversary of Waterloo so I wonder Happy Modelling

It's going to have to be something very special, to compete with what Deagostini have released to date and with the Millennium Falcon being released in two days. “Count your age by friends, not years. Count your life by smiles, not tears.”
