Keyworth, no problem, anytime. The Kelly's Heroes pic appeared in those forums, back a few months ago, but as far as i know, it never made it to the modeling press... This was a 3-man effort, to give credit to my friends Steve and Ron. I was 'in charge' of the vehicles and buildings (although Ron helped a lot with that too), while Steve was the figure man! Shame I haven't got anymore pics because Steve's figures were absolutely spot on.

I may take you up on your kind offer soon. By the way, I enjoyed your website. I've seen your dio of "Kelly's Heroes" before. Has it been published before? Great movie. Thanks again. I'll be in touch. - Ed

Hey Pactra-Man,

On the second day of Trucks'n'Tracks, they were out of their 'catalogue'... You can see their latest releases at:

their website:

If you want to avoid paying custom duties, I don't mind ordering and sending you the stuff you need...

Thanks for the reply. Bummer, man. Guess I'll just have to resort to old-fashioned snail mail. The kits ARE good, aren't they? :)

Hi Keyworth, I asked the Matador Models people todat at the Trucks'n'Tracks show in UK and they said that they do not have an importer in the US. They do mail order...

Does anyone out there know of a US source for these neat kits of airfield vehicles? I'd sure like to add several to my collection. - Ed Cool [8D]
