Hi.

just a quick point, the blueprints show the handles the opposite way around to the magazine. Anyone know which is correct?

Pictures in the Millennium Falcon Haynes manual also show the handles the other way round to how you have them. I shall be going with them the other way found.

They are also the other way round in a picture from the Star Wars Blueprints book

Fantastic detail....

Can I ask where you got the PE from? I'm guessing it was from 1/48 scale aircraft sets??

Thanks in advance

Thanks for the quick reply,

I thought that might be the case, Do you know which fighter jets they were? as you look to have found 2 sets that fit the Falcons interior very well.

I would also like to know what PE sets you got if you wouldn't mind sharing. I tried to look through the website but couldn't identify them.

This looks really amazing and although I might not be able to go as far as you do in all the details, the sticker needs to be replaced and great idea on the glass paints - adds a great touch. :)

well had enough now, my last delivery was the 15th of feb, i'v not had any e-mail answered by customer services and had nothing but lies when i have phoned up so binning this build never been treated so bad before in all my life by a subscription, very bad taste in my mouth.
if you guys are getting your delivery's enjoy your builds but i'm out.

I feel your pain, I've had nothing since the 15th either and have been told half truths for the last couple of weeks. I genuinely believe that the customer services guys on the end of the phone don't have the correct information and are trying their best to answer the deluge of queries.

I tried again today and have been 'promised' that my next 4 issues have been posted today (funny that) and I will have them within 14 days. If this transpires not to be the case, I think I'll be bailing out too.

I know the official forum is the place to post this but there doesn't seem to be much transparency or accurate information from DeAg over there.

Unfortunately there won't be any official info posted on this forum, but what I can tell you is that as of tomorrow, a new direct messaging facility is due to be installed on the official site and an Administrator too, which should greatly improve things over there.
