      Not the most exciting of arrivals,but the stowage set for my Cromwell has just been delivered :smiling3:
      This is the 3rd or 4th item I've had from Redog and I must give them a shout out as the quality is great.... and the prices even more so ......

              I think MRP went from glass bottles, to plastic with flip tops to plastic with screw tops. Don't like these flip top lids, they tend to break.

                I would also wonder why RAF colours contain RLM 23

                  Can’t you just unscrew these and use them as normal bottles?

                      They actually look like acrylic craft paint bottles……perhaps there is a supply issue?

                          Bottles the same, just a different cap.

                            Vallejo also did that to me with a few of their Model Colour bottles.

                              Or they are just cheaper and therefore increase profit........ :thinking:

                                I have to say that whilst you have been very supportive of my various builds, you are clearly a very bad influence on me!!

                                We no longer shop at Aldi and yet having dropped my daughter off at work only half an hour ago, I found myself walking out of the Aldi just around the corner from her work with the below......I mean really.....I will of course not recognise my own lack of will-power and blame you entirely! :smiling5:
