Sound like an exellent addition to the Modellers arson! My only concern it may be a bit pricey  :sad:

Makes models for himself - ends up with none left.....

I was just discussing this with Alan the other day, in my wisdom I proclaimed "it won't be a big kit because its a run of 500". Pleased to be proved wrong though, and Mr Marley has already been informed and an order is imminent, one custom FH tag and low loader on the list :thumbsupup:

It won't be a single run of 500, but ten runs of 50, so Howard has the flexibility to cut the run short if sales run out of steam.

So it is actually his usual 50 at a time, reviewing as they sell. If people think there are 500 they will probably hang on until "needed" whereas if there are only 50 they may buy "just in case" . I did think it a bit of a gamble having £75,000 of stock in one kit! :shocked:
