Leigh you are a star!
your talents are obvious, more of the same please, its a more pleasing way to look at new diecast, and in this time of recession your humour gives us all a laugh!

Anyone else notice the so called “Perfect example” Nosecone had a deformed bridge wing?

Perhaps you should try following normal retail/mail-order protocols and send back that “Bad batch” and get a new one. Rather than hoping your customers will merely put up with a shoddy example.

I’ve personally come to expect better from GPL.

Leigh, the new approach has enlivened the regular webcast whilst still giving us useful information on new releases. Keep it up, the world needs to be a bit more light hearted.
