This is why I enjoy this forum so much, as a mere 60 now I’m sure it won’t be long before visitors to the builds will be asking for concessions on the refreshments

The strange thing about this kit is the decal and paint guides are on the box. It gives the placement of the main decals but includes loads more for you to use as you wish

Maybe! Didn't the middle drop out?

Yep they did have a detachable middle. I remember we had a white one and a metallic green one which carried radio active barrels
