Bondoman,

My email address is docidle8@cox.net and I really appreciate the offer!  Not sure which part of the Bay Area you're in, but I grew up in Alameda and miss it every summer.  Too bad there was never an Aurora/Heller Victory but at least I know that now. 

Thanks again,

Jeff,

Thanks for the offer, but I have the "english" instructions that came with the kit which isn't saying much.  I was just wondering if the Victory was ever one of the Prestige series.  I have the Le Phenix, Royal Louis, Soleil Royal and Reale instructions from the Aurora/Heller kits and I agree with you, they are a so much better.

Thanks again,

I've got the Imai english instructions scanned. IMO they are the best If you would like a copy, PM me your email address.

 

No Aurora Victory, at that scale.

I have the Heller English instructions and could mail you a copy once I make a set so if you want them send me your mailing address. I also have the Aurora/Heller plans for the Soleil Royal and there's a huge and positive difference between them and the current French set with cryptic English translations on the last few pages. I have no idea if there is an equivilent Aurora version for the Victory.

As stated in other threads, the “English” instructions that are provided by Heller are not the best, and I am not sure if the Heller 1/100 HMS Victory was ever produced in the Aurora/Heller Prestige series; however, if it was, does anyone have a digital or paper copy I can talk them out of?

Thanks in advance,

Steve
