Happy Birthday to meeeeeee! Maybe a bit early, but I needed a bit of "Retail Therapy"...

And it was a pretty good bargain, about €20 cheaper then I saw it anywhere else....

Ta-daaah!! It's a nice big box...

...and soooo many parts! Making it RC is going to be a fun challenge, especially since I want to try and do it without buying one of the RC-conversion kits. I do like a challenge.

TTFN,
Rob

A quick tip, assemble the guides and the pivots of the tracks first then spray all the track parts. If you then spray the pivots with a silicone lubricant they will be easier to assemble with good flexibility.

Ah...so the collection has hit sweet sixteen, then? ( I know you're well past that landmark, personally :D ). Well, do enjoy the self-indulgence. :thumbup: Our Queen has two birthdays per year (real, and official); just imagine the rewards the extra justification of having 3 birthdays each year (real, fantasy, and make-believe) could reap!! :haha: Then, there's Christmas as well! Yay!.

I have on of those in the stash, Rob. I will watch if you are going to do a "build." And thanks for the tip, SnowWolf!
