I love the "Three Dimensional Volumetric" label on those Micromodels ...

If you like micromodels read through this site before you spend your money, as you will learn replicas are still available printed from the original plates and there is a US publisher for those on the other side of the pond:

I've got a stash of stuff on my computer, mainly Scifi from back when I was in my flat and spraying plastic kits wasn't an option.

The show of interest poll came up with 7 yesses and a maybe so we're across the six threshold...I've reset the poll to determine a period that will work for the valiant Few...

Simon, I think you have simply edited the existing poll which is over and done with. Check with john but I think you may have to start a new poll for the GB start date on a different thread.
