I'm happy with my £2 return to Edinburgh and hour train to Glasgow. You'd pay that for a can of coke at the petrol station never mind Petrol!

Only 4 hours on a train from London, make a day trip of it's lads!

In the merchant city in Glasgow there's a comicy/card game/model shop as you say Lozart. within 5 minutes of that there's another 4 model shops

If I had a model shop within in walking distance I'd be a happy man.

No Problem mate, only bought it as there was f*ck all else in the shop, I didn't even want it lol. Will getting my money back though.

Snugpak Jungle bag - brand new in stuff sack with tags £35 MTP Bush hat - £5 Cylume - £0 thrown in for free, the bloke on the stall told me to take the lot of them but I only took one. Felt bad as he'd already given me £3 off the hat without me asking.

Probably far better off. Furnish it with figures from another brand than Airfix also, this has jogged my memory that the soldiers in the D-Day anniversary set were absoulutely gopping aswell.

Smooth as a baby's bum.

Agreed mate, I honestly expected a lot more, don't know if it was just me or what lol, but its definately getting taken back. I don't know if this was just me either, or the way it was pitched to me, but I expected the trenches to be "ready" as in the right colour or something for you to just do your models then arrange them in it?

As requested, Opening the box you are greeted with this. I believe the infantry would have benefited from a being in a square sprue as per Italeri minatures because pretty much anything that could become bent, has done: The German infantry, which seems to have the most problems : The British Infantry who aren't as bad, but their rifles leave a lot to be desired: The Terrain, which is two identical hollow shells. You cut away the flash on the inside and glue them together to make one piece : The Tanks, which I have no complaints about: Tank Painting instructions (note there are absoulutely none for the terrain or infantry which I found dissapointing) : Paint kit (the instructional booklet advises additional paints for detail):

Just in from Dagenham market, give me 10 minutes to cool down and I'll take some pics and post them up mate.

It's really just a big mess to be honest, I expected more from Airfix, but I'm guessing now they just churn out mass produced crap. For the trenches I'll need to purchase static grass etc to dress the scene. I would strongly reccommend against buying it mate, you could get a good few decent models for the same price if not cheaper. I'm still in two minds whether to take it back, just hate the train journey.

Just bought this set mate from a store in a shopping centre. I paid £25 and I must say I don't think Airfix is at all worth the money, will be sticking to other brands from now on. There's beyond excessive flashing on near all of the infantry, some don't even have faces where its been covered by flash. one german rifle isn't even a rifle its a curly point missing much of the middle section. I've no complaints RE the tanks, as usual the quality on their vehicles is okay; However I expected more from the trenches, they're going to require a lot of work to make them look remotely like they do on the box. I'd return it but I can't be bothered going back to the store so I'm going to have to spend a few hours with a craft knife trying to salvage the mess that is the soldiers.

They restock in october, will have to wait till then for my stock pad and front sight

RE warlord tactical, how does one go about making a purchase from them? I can't find a website, just a facebook page

Didn't even see the Stock pad up for sale or I'd of got that aswell! Damn. You're doing a GBBR right? Let me know how it goes mate, planning one of them myself later down the line.

Perr mike barrel extension G&P old style stock for m4. Both off our very own Jelliffe99 L119 goodness shall soon be mine!

James, use that in conjunction with the paper mache technique I showed you! Bargain on the bunker too, you'll enjoy building it, I used to!

The envy I have right now is off the scale! Well done mate that was a steal!

Where from? Jammy sod I've been after one for over a year. Given up now and just going to do Brit kit. Easier to come by!

I'm going to be using the paper mache technique to form a landscape, then i'll buy/make trees fences and buildings. Heres one way to landscape :https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4kQ2UAkmxZE @ Russell (sorry if theres only one l mate I always forget!) Maybe try a clearing/the edge of the jungle? Few trees on the very edge of the base, the rest can be grass/sand/soil with your tank and infantry posed there?
