holy hell! .. don't tell my LHS that... they have a gato and a type7 clearanced at $85 right now LOL

Reckless,

I suggest you pick up one of each and sit on them. I've finished both the type VII and the Gato but have a spare Gato and Type VII. The Gato I picked up on Amazon UK for about US$ 62.00 and the Type VII in Hong Kong for about US$ 85.00. I really enjoyed building both and will do it again in the future!


Reckless, you live a beautiful part of the world. I toured the Island by Motorcycle in 2008 and stayed with friends in Sooke and Courtney.

Regards,

Myron

thanks .. yeah it's awesome here landscape wise and such...

wish I could snag up the 2 sub models... but no cash ... and even if I did have the cash I'd probably have a 1/230 skipjack and bits in the mail LOL

Kazzer, thanks for the heads-up.
This is going to be a collector's item!
I rushed at my LHS and got the last one for 95 euro....

My LHS told me that they still had one coming so I went and checked yesterday after work and there it was. The bloke there didn't seem to concerned about it being discontinued. he used the type VII as an example of discontinued coming back in. I have to say that seeing how big the box is gave me a bit of a boyish giggle but opening it up at home and I was floored with this kit. Struth she really is a beaut!!

£149.00 jolly old English pounds for the Gato?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?!?!? As we say over here in a jolly old cockney accent "They're 'avin a larf" !!!!!!!
