I was thinking of building the good old LCM as part of the maratime GB would you want it for the dockyard as either water-line or on the jetty?

Not quite seeing how the Lunar Command Module fits in Splash but hey, if you want to build it we'll incorporate it into the scene somehow mate...

Change of plan then, I will check to see if I have a Landing Craft Mechinised Mk3 with Sherman as that might look better in the dock.

But how is a Landing Craft going to get to the Moon?

By docking first

This probably ought to be written somewhere else ... Ho hum .. So here goes:

If anyone needs replacement decals etc - Dapol do supply them for a small fee. I think it is circa 75p a set plus an SAE ... I think you have to write as well to get your request actioned.

If anyone does need any a call to them or filling in an online form should sort it out - but a chap at our local club got some for something last year this way

Thanks for the info Chris. I'll just add that for anyone doing a lot of railway rolling stock subjects, there are generic sets of British Railway "roundels" of various designs/eras for locos and coaches and so on. I have a few which are very useful when doing re-sprays. For a rail modeller they are just as useful as the RAF Roundels and Swastika sheets I have from Xtradecal for my aircraft modelling.

[PaulBradley]

Anyone doing one of these?

Not that I know of. I've hung my nose over one or two on eBay, but in the end they've got too expensive (plus I don't love it like I do the Mountain or Beyer Garrett!)

Bestest,
M.

Like Matt says, I'd love to have one but I've never seen one go for less than £60.00 over here.

[PaulBradley]

Didn't sell for a starting bid of $25, so he's re-listed at $15......

I saw that one when it was first listed, but was put off by the extortionate international postage rates. It's a bargin for anyone in the states.

Do we have any Airfix/Dapol Railbuses for the tables?
