(was disappointed tho as so many are with the build threads you guys had to deal with PB.) For some reason tho the Thunderbird Phantom just did not connect on the link you had. Hmm dunno.

Wow, that Star Wars dio is something entirely different and never seen anyone do before. Be interesting if others started doing the same with this and other movies. This is one idea I'm going to try in the future.

Missed the addition of the bike to the collection (not paying attention!) - that's really nicely done and a great finish too. I remember the Wolf F1 car but didn't know he'd dabbled with bikes too.

The Sterling is great as well - cracking result from a really old kit and lots of hidden additives during the build too!
