As this is potentially of enormous interest to those who hang around in the softskins forum, I have decided to ''double post'' this news item. As we don''t get nearly enough news of new softskin releases this should be of real interest. The full story (including images) can be seen:

Boy that is a nice looking kit. Of course for that money it better be. Much as I would LOVE to have that puppy I' prefer being married more. If "she who must be obeyed" saw that price I'd be living in my car, which only cost a bit more than that kit.
I sure hope though that somebody with deeper pockets than I have will get that and show it to us as a build here. It really looks great.

Yeah Rodger, you and me both! If this baby was to appear in the Visa/Mastercard or Amex account, there would indeed be a wailing and a gnashing of teeth (hers, not mine...) ..Jim :-)

yes at about 250AUD it is too expensive for me but if I have a rich uncle out there reading this I would be happy if this and the wrecker came as a gift.

Love to have that kit.
Shouldn't be a problem.
Fits right in with my retirement plan.
I'm off to Virginia to buy another lottery ticket ....
