Hi all

and especially you, Captain:



today we had our local modelling meeting and my pal Volker brought a bunch of his new model mags .. so I cannot remember in which one I have seen this "new" manufacturer .. I guess it was Replic. I would like to get their Mirage 2000 set



and maybe the Aeronaval tractor,



but the site ( renaissance-models.com) is .. well, very simple and French only (yeah I know babelfish ...) and their German distributors are all car model shops ---- I will have no fun in the conversation with them. Can anyone point to a shop that sells that stuff (preferably one that allows paypal or bank transfer)

many thanks

Steffen

Hi Steffen

If Jean-Luc's Picard - I hope I'm not Kirk! Although... come to think of it... he WAS the one who always got the sexy alien girls!

To boldly go...

Hi Steffen

That's fine - Bones was always my favourite! The way he pulled Spock's tail reminds me of some the characters behind the scenes here...

All the best

Hi Steffen

Sorry - no - I've followed plenty of links and found, like you, that they all lead to dealers that only stock car kits...

Let us know if you get a postive response from Renaissance themselves, or find an alternative source for their aircraft accessories.

All the best
