Hopefully Warren. The release date has been put back a few times, but the wait will be worth it I'm sure. It's going to be a limited release so it would probably be useful to get your orders in early.
All the best.

This is going to be a general release now. They changed their minds according to the website.

Now all we need is a release of an upgraded Vulcan (one that fits together) and we will have all the V-Bombers in 1/72..
