Ahoy Shipmates, I just completed issue 83 and checked the die-cast parts which will be painted and fitted in issue 90. Unfortunately one of the spears is slightly bent on the trophy. Could anyone suggest a method to bend it back? As the die-cast part is very brittle I don't want to "just" bend it and risk to snap. Any suggestions? Or shall I ask Customer Service to send a replacement part? Thanks. gingerale75 attached the following image(s): Happy building! Laszlo Finished builds: HMS Victory, HMS Victory Cross-Section

Thanks. Safest way would be to ask Customer Service to send a replacement part. Whilst you await its arrival you could always try to straighten it by bending it after some gentle heat application. Al
