I don't know when you last browsed an Airfix catalogue mate....the collectors series and multipose ate only generally available through ebay and similar unless you get 'em at a show. So it's hardly a medium youngsters are going to have to tempt them into trying anything.
In addition the vast majority of staff in the GW shops have no idea or understanding of even the existance of historical miniatures.

Airfix, catalogue! Is this still going? ... Good grief!

Mark.

Yes Mark I have seen the fabled book of plasticus assemblimus, it was displayed to the faithful at Telford and put back in the library and chained for safety.

Sniper!

Hmm, now I feel very old! .. I had a catalogue 'Half-Inched', off me when I was 5yrs old in hospital. .. 1971. .. Phrrrp. (A fat little twat, in the opposite bed) I always remember this aspect when 'Airfix-Mags', come up.

Mark.

What? Who? Where?
Oh I see ...........
No I was mixed up and should have pressed
'the boss is behind me button' instead of 'post reply'.
Silly P.

You could ask for it back Mark, he will be on BritModeller or Mil Mod forum or summat.
If you open a nostalgia thread in the other forums he'll own up and you can catch him.

This time, you could make it personal.

I thought it might even have been over zealous moderating.

Paul.

Nah, I vaguely remember watching this, 'Tea-Leaf', being force fed porridge! by a very unsympathetic nurse. Fingers on nose and swallow kind of thing. . . That made me happy.

Mark.

ROFLMAO

Revenge......always a dish best served cold Or, in his case, hot salty porridge. Nemesis. A righteous infliction of retribution administered by a suitable agent, in his case, I hope it was a big, muscly nurse.

Alan

Alan, if I had known of the many courses of revenge that is available today such as 'herbal infusion', that would have been sweet! ... But I was a 5yr old, so the porridge will have to do.

Mark.

Please tell me this thread has drifted on to porridge.?????
It could only happen on this forum.

A fair point, like porridge I have no further interest with this publication. Although I do like the 'Euro-Special'. .. that I will get.

Only 3/4 . just kidding. good news and keep up the good work.
I've typed up the heading for my next article.

As I mentioned before it may take a little while for the figure articles to filter through. It definitely seems that the editor is making an attempt to try and restore the figure
presence in the mag. good for us, not the you know who's.

Is it about porridge ?

Now that would be telling, but it will make you Quaker in your boots.
