Thank you. Keep your eyes peeled for more additions through the day. There will be a major update of the prototype section, which will include some new additions of production items not seen before on the site

I am more or less thinking along the same lines as chopper on this but it being "Futuristic"
I suppose I will have to change the name of my S.A.S. Bombadier now which is in the pic with the whirlwind.
I actually laughed a couple of weeks back when I saw that and thought how coincidental it was
If anything, just stick him with the SAS MMS, there, job done

That's what he is supposed to be with but I stuck him on there for the pic of the whirlwind.
I must be psychic Lol

Nah it just smells like it TKW. Very fishy.

Just catching up guys - and Chopper - quote of the night thus far!!!
I was lucky enough to be in contact with Dave while he was down in the vault, playing a sort of "Chloe O'Brian" role.
You guys can only imagine how excited I got as the picture messages came in...

Wotch it sunshine.....
Actually I liked the codenames, especially sniper.
And Steve, I'd bet you were gagging to spill the beans. Certainly Dave was.

It's been a long 4 weeks or so
It was funny though at the time, Steve was the only person I knew the number of and had to text him for a sanity check at the time, I think he ended up doing no work that day

Hello all!
i WAS lurking here last night, watching the updates come in on my phone. Sadly, I can't post from my mobile... but suffice to say I was here in spirit and diggin' the new pics!
Thanks again to
Dave and
The Baron for all their hard work on this...
PS. Dave, hopefully you'll have something in the post in the next couple of weeks, and thank you very much for putting the catalog pictures in the archive section so that work on the

prototype paratrooper can continue!
Great work, everybody!
SPACE COMMANDER
