If these are anything like their Flightpath PE kits, then we're in for some amazing kits....These are super-detailed kits in photo-etched brass and cast metal. They include full rivet and bolt-head detailing and are easy to assemble, with slot and tab construction of all major etched parts. Comprehensive colour-coded assembly instructions + photo references, and painting stencils and details are provided as standard. Some of the kits in this range will include the option of motorisation & radio control.

Proposed Range:

Kit A - Mk.1 Male Tank

Kit B - Optional Tail Unit for Mk.1 Male Tank Over 650mm long {incl. tail}, the first tanks to see action in World War One

Kit C - Mk.1 Female Tank

Kit D - Anti Grenade Roof Unit for Mk.1 Tanks

Kit E - Mk.4 Male Tank

Kit F - Mk.4 Female Tank

Kit G - Mk.5 Male Tank + Conversion Packs for Specialist Roles

David had these (at least a Mk I) ages ago. I've got one in the stash. It came with the tail. He's had this blurb up on his site for an age and a day. I talked to him a couple of years ago about this, and the Short foc'sle Flower class. He pretty much enjoys the pace of business as it is, and isn't in any really hurry to increase his workload.

The one I have is magnificent. The sheets of etch are insane, and it weighs a ton. (tonne?) If there is any interest, I'll get it out, and take some pics.
Tired, Old, and Cranky!

The new release is an updated version of the original and the proposed range should be available around Autumn 2017, approx price close to £300.

They are R/C "friendly" and do not include any element of R/C such as motors etc.

Webpage will be updated with photos etc closer to the time.
