I recall that name too. Riko started the import of Tamiya to the UK I think...
Did you buy it in a Beaties store by any chance Karl.

And Acoms RC gear, up until the mid 90's (IIRC)
No, a small model shop in Redhill. I actually bought very little in Beatties but was in the Romford one a fair bit for a nosey.

I have just received my hot shots decals.

Just wondering, but does the kit you have include the shorter canopy, or only the long one?
I haven't studied in detail yet but looking at a YouTube clip of the landing scene they have the longer canopy.
Some of the other gladiators were in 4 parts as well!!, Great movie one of my favourites..

Ah, I didn’t remember that bit, I do recall seeing short-canopied ones, which is what’s in my 1:72 scale kit. Handy that either will do
Very late to the table on this one guys. Is there still a chair spare? I'm looking at this Kitt kit: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Jada-JA997...ocphy=1006826&hvtargid=pla-600688705115&psc=1
Complete with swooshing "Cylon eye"?
(But that's a diecast car, will you be repainting it or something?)
Oops. My bad. I'll be buying a model kit to build.

Of course
Like I said before, as long as you join before the end of May you can take part.
Well in that case I'm in. no idea what yet but i’ll come up with something before then

Aargh! I was going to do the full 75mm figure of Maximus from Alexandros, but I think there's only enough room for one Spaniard in this GB - I'll think again.
Don’t sweat it. It will be fun to see you outpaint me…….go for it :thumb2:
I’ve just had a look Paul. He looks great, and is from a later part of the film. You’ve got to go for him……
There can be only one! Oh wait. Wrong film!
