Eddie,

check out modellersloft, they are selling stuff off with 20% discount at the minute. Also 40th AM on the bay, prices are starting to creep up.
When confronted by a difficult problem you can solve it more easily by reducing it to the question. How would the Lone Ranger handle this?

Ha Ed! You're getting sucked in!

Try to resist my friend as its a very dark path to follow.

It was this time last year that I bought my first AM - the Talking Commander.

Must have 70/80/90?? or so AM's now.

VAM is just as lethal as any narcotic.

Modellor's Loft is a great place to start with some minty 40th anniversary but it quickly goes on from there. I ended up buying the entire 40th collection [for about two and a half grand!] from them plus a shed load of original stuff as well....

Good luck!

I think I might have to ask for my payrise a month or so early, like I say just a couple I have already picked out the perfect place for them to go, I haven't mentioned this to Annie yet, the intention is to put them in the lounge should be cool,

Back away slowly from the VAM..... Blokes like the Pauls do not help when it comes to VAM. :.

What you want is to buy a set of BFTB Colouring Project books, mate.
