Same here, on a pc. The pickup is definitely a great kit. I've seen it at an hobby shop last year and it made me wish I didn't prefer ww2 subjects so much  |

Why worry, each of us is wearing an unlicensed nuclear accelerator on his back.

Hey did they release the Tortoise yet? No news on the Tortoise yet but I have asked the question. Sales and Development aren't co-located at Meng so they may not yet know a release date  I have started the Pick up with ZPU and its smashing. The ZPU is outstanding IMHO, shame they have no plans to release this on its own. I can't wait to start the Merkava. Smudge |

Would agree with you there on the pickup jackwagon- particulalry about the single piece glazing  - very disapointing given everything else is so good in that kit. As for the web-site: I've given up trying to load it -waaay to slow for me.  |

I like how they are naming their categories...I feel like I'm watching Jurrassic Park for the first time again...boy, I was little at that time ;D
Cheers
