I can rename existing topics if that helps?
If you think a new topic should be created = go for it 🙂

Can we remove the list of versions (FE/FC/FB/EK) and include the years they were produced?

See example for Toyota Celica
Toyota Celica (1970-1977)
Toyota Celica (1981-1985)

Hi there... just wanted check back in on this. Cheers

$55 and free shipping on Amazon after a recent $45 price drop. I figured it was time to jump on it.

NZD to USD exchange rate makes it $55 USD to me. This is not too bad. I am afraid that shipping from the other side of the planet will make it cost prohibited. Best wishes to whoever gets the privilege of accepting your offer.

Ronald Birl
Unfortunately I have already purchased one last night for $99 USD + $14.50 shipping and with tax total of $123.65 USD.

Bill Newcomer
Ouch!

Near the top should be a button called marketplace in green. Tap it and it turns grey.

It doesn't seem to have worked.

Looks like an interesting project.

The project starts with a horror movie where one figure was shot in the back and had to receive a graft. Part of a Trumpeter deformity was transplanted and now he is recovering from his ordeal. The surgeon had to slash the inside with a bayonet and use a syringe full of acid to be able to beat the torso in a comfortable shape.

The RSO engine appears to be very fiddly, I can't seem to get it lined out straight in the frame. Today I was able to attach the tracklink supports and cut the wood for the dio base.

Interesting 👍

🍿👀 I've pulled up my seat

Steven Van Dyck
Thanks for the attention. I ordered a metal barrel, but too late I noticed it's 1/72. I immediately sent a mail to the store to switch this to 1/35, they still got a middle type. But I think the order was already dispatched.

The interior of the cabin is upgraded with some Eduard PE and the cabin doors are also improved. This DML kit has the correct seats on the new sprue H, in stead of the M113 seats with the older Dragon RSO kits. The engine will be clearly visible. The Friulmodel tracklinks are drilled through to fit the track pins. The set also contains beautiful sprockets and idlers and even the axles to connect these to the undercarriage.

Steven Van Dyck
My typical approach to Friulmodel track assembly, with a calibrated cutting device able to cut multiple threads at once. In comparison with the Dragon tracklinks these are hollowed out deeper and have a product code inscription. The downside to the easy cutting pins is that they all need a white metal plug on the bore hole.
