  1. but how much is postage from hk,and what happens if it goes wrong and you need it replaceing?
  2. Hi all,as you know i got rid of what i had before and am looking to start a new collection.i have seen a couple that i like the look of and wondered which one is best in terms of ease of building, hop ups painting up etc.i want something thats fairly easy that i can make a really good job of. they are the wild willy 2 a midnight pumpkin(grave digger body to follow perhaps?) and a subaru brat any advice cheers
  3. is tmc the one in the lanes,round the back of the food court? i had a feeling that was your only modelshop when i put my post up.if thats all youve got available then im not surprised that you use online,but if you have a decent lhs then you cant go anywhere better
  4. i am sure the law here is the same but not many second hand shops bother!!! hope he gets his stuff back anyway
  5. no disrespect fella but your a fool.apart from my tamiya fascination i also play guitar.and this holds true for both hobbies.yes you can get them cheaper on the net but last wedensday i picked up my guitar for a quick play before i went to work,snapped a string and knew i wouldnt have time to go to work,come home restring me guitar and then get to rehearsals on time.so i dropped it into me local guitar shop,where i bought it went to work,came home and picked my guitar up,restrung and re set up to my liking.the lad at the shop,cos i go there for all my things knew exactly what guage string i wanted,and how i like the action on my guitar.you will never get that kind of service from an online supplier or dealer.
  6. just to let you know its gone.if it was one of you all on here congrats
  7. cheers guys thats given me summat to look at anyway.i take it a rere is a reissue of a reissue?
  8. hi like i said mainly bashing about at the local park,so mostly off road for actual runners.as for the shelfers anything really.but what i`m after is something moderatly easy to build/hop up etc that i can make a really good job of to get me started
  9. Just as a bit of a heads up on parcel force i recently sent an guitar amplifier by their 48hrs service yet the thing was sat in a sorting depot for 3 days before they even tried to deliver it so how on earth they have the nerve to charge for 48hr service when its obviously not is beyond me.last year while i remember,my sis bought something for my daughter rom amazon.me and the missus came home from work to find a card saying that they(parcel force) had tried to deliver and i could pick up from their leeds depot the next day.a round trip of nearly twenty miles,but it was the bairns birthday so i went.got there to be told that the driver hadnt unloaded it from the van and he would be delivering it the next day.next day came and no delivery and no card. so i rang leeds depot to be told it was there and could i go and pick it up again.went through,and was kept waiting for three quarters of an hour while they found it.i know some have mentioned fed ex and ups on here but a private courier cant be as bad as parcelforce, surely?
  10. Hi all, i am still faily new to rc,about 3 years of pratting around with them in the park and so forth,but have just had a clear out of me stuff because it was a right mixture of tthings.some tamiya and some kyosho.i amlooking to start a proper collection with some statics,some runners and a couple of shelf queens.i`m not bad at building them/painting them but i could be a lot better.so the golden question whats the best things to start a collection off with tamiya wise?any advice would be much appreciated cheers all
  11. HI all, abit of a cheeky plug as it says in the title but is this of interest to anyone? Go on have a look I am having or at any rate had a clear out of all things rc before christmas with the sole intention of building up a proper collection cheers guys
