Hi,

Saw this http://www.deagostini.com/it/collezioni/vasa/
Swedish 1600's galleon Vasa out in italy.
Are there any plans to bring this to the UK? Or to Sweden? (I understand Swedish)

Cheers Stuntie.

I have seen that it may be an option in the uk from FEBRUARY. Still waiting for some updates.

I Have limited funds and have looked at so many great partworks that always get launched this time of year and tend to settle by february so this is the one i will Go for.

Will i ever build it? Well we could set up our own website on the whys and why nots - but i keep saying "when i retire"

It looks a great model and if it does come on line this month i will be signing up.

Kind regards

Tony

Gah! That's a shame. One ship I would truly love to build.
Oh well, hope they rethink and release it at some point.

Well i got that totally wrong then Blushing have to put it down to age and letting my imagination take over again.

I guess this is the sort of thing some of the USA forum members have experienced with kits not being available to them.

Will have to re-think what i do go for now Confused
