Belated Birthday greetings Ken. Looks like you had a good haul there. The Katana builds up nice but the chrome is a bit bling bling. ;)

Yep, built it before, didn't look like the box then, it won't this time either, in fact if all goes to plan no one will recognise it as a katana, watch that space.

Hi all here is the next update, with the drivers cab I thought (my dad was a conductor on London busses when I was a youngster so I saw loads of busses) I never saw one where the glass between the cab and passenger compartment wasn't stained with nicotine (not that I knew that's was what it was then) (everyone used to smoke then) so I've tried (not as well as I would have liked to depict that) nearly made the mistake of putting the lid on the cab then remembered I've got to add a driver.

Just got back 21.05 from taking my boss to London harrods to have her hair done so took the seats and decals thought I would get a few done in the 5 hrs I sit in the car, didn't do a single one they don't fit so I recon I will just paint them one colour just don't know which colour, I think that's a quite big flaw in an otherwise great kit

Can you get a replacement set of decals whilst explaining the fault Ken ? The drivers seat looks spot on too.

I'm wondering if I should have 2 sets as they're handed, there's 32 seats and 32 decals so I wonder if they are supposed to do half a seat each.
