Yes but they do give you email warnings when you are close to 60 days.I managed to get 10 issues shipped at once.

Looking good and love the smaller kits of the auxiliary vehicles.

How big an area do you think you`ll need to display this when finished?

yes I was thinking of emailing them to see if they could get it.Otherwise I do have a contact is USa that makes wonderful display cases.he made one for my 1/8 MP 4/23.I am sure he could make a case for the vehicles.

I have started my build.Initially I thought it looked a big toy like, but it actually is really nice.The detail on the rescue vehicles is really well done.

That's par for the course with this type of click and screw partworks series. With the first few issues one receives a boatload of parts, then gradually the amount of parts simmers down to "two pipes" or "a tyre, no wheel" when one is in the 20s or 30s for issue numbers. Not a complaint, it's just how things are and what one should expect if one takes out a subscription of this kind.

1 more day ;)

I do agree the parts are less. Number 12 has a battery piece. I dont mind it when there are less parts. Number 16 has fab1 so really excited for that one

I agree about the parts count for some issues.The magazine does have a good article on weathering the vehicles and some good stuff about Gerry Anderson etc....
