Default One Under The Wire.

PostMan Pat risked a good Jack Russell chewing delivering a package a few days ago, and with all the angst associated with the procurement, delivery, shifting and placement of tons of geological material that's been moved halfway round the planet merely in order to create a patio for The Chancellor to (optimistically) sun herself on, I'd completely forgotten about it!

However - this morning I unwrapped a little gem. She is GORGEOUS!

AND - The Chancellor never noticed it's arrival, mainly because it's a non-flyer and didn't warrant a rainforest's worth of packaging like the normal indulgences from such as SL.

I won't tell you how much she cost - have a Google and you can frighten yourself.

She's 1ft 2inches long in old money, significantly weighty, gloriously detailed and worth every penny.

My quick snap truly doesn't do her justice.

Ro.

PS. PLUS - she'll provide a great template for the finish of my as yet, untouched huge 1/48th plastic one.

I got mine from Michael Clegg here:

........ but, I think he may have run out of his allocation of the 4000 limited edition. Worth a look though, 'you may be lucky - AND, he's got lots of lovely other stuff.
