Got any pics?

(AU$80 is a bit too rich for my collection:eek:)

Check on Ebay, pretty sure they are nowhere near $80, more like $40.
Nice model, very detailed.

I bought the set a little while ago. It contains HUE166 and the last 80" (forgotten the rego, sorry), and a reproduction copy of the 80" owner's manual. A bit pricey, but I reckon it's worth it, especially since Universal Hobbies now isn't going to make a large scale HUE.

Chris.I've got all the 1/76 LR's not bothered with the 1/43 as the detail isn't that good compared to the Vanguards.
Do you get LRO down there ?
