Thanks guys, she's a pearler.

It'll be grey SAS/AF. Maybe like the Aussie NH90's. Some are badged RAAF on one side and NAVY on the other for dual roll's. All the old strips of Duke in a Herc sorta sway me a little. It won't be Z as its Chopper's ride. I'll check out Cobra stickers too, sounds interesting.

I'll say one thing, its f*cking huge. If you know your Skystrikers and HAWK's you'll get an appreciation for the sheer size. Maybe I should buy another? Nah, no bloody room. ATM its sitting on my chair, I don't even have room for my Cobra Air force.

Makes you wonder how, for the size, Chap Mai can knock these out so cheaply.

I told you it'd grown a bit. ;-) SAS - complete, Q Force - Complete, Space Force - Complete, Red Shadows 99% (bloody Roboskull), Z Force 90% (bloody command centre), Series 1 80%, Cobra - 90%, AF - 80%

Space force is massive, some how I army built them without trying.

Great pics Chopper. It surprises me how the Corps!, WP and Chap Mei can do great vehicles but really bog awful figures

The figures are good for target practice. One of em came with and SA80 too. Pity the scale is so f*cked. Ordinarily these things sell for $80, so they aren't too cheap usually. TRU are having a sale, half price chap mei, which means I might be getting a Chinook when I go on holiday tomorrow.

That's a decent price. Mine was about 18 pounds in funny money.

I actually paid £30 from Argos for my first one but the Argos chad valley version is green so I had to pick up a second, it's a pity the cobra stickers set is so expensive! They work out more than the toy itself.
