RMweb Premium boxbrownie Posted January 10, 2017 RMweb Premium Share Posted January 10, 2017 Did it mention the year? Haha......beat me to it..........after all it was only 4 years wait for the 08, at least I pre ordered a HJ DMU from Tower a few weeks ago, that gives me at very least a year to save up (and more likely 2 years). At this rate we will all be looking at MagLift Monorails whizzing along the main lines before we have gathered all our desired models.......and I thought DMUs would be modern image Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
coachmann Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 7mm has always been a builder's scale, but I suppose it was inevitable that 0 gauge RTR in would invite the kind of box-openers remarks that are so prevalent in 00 World. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simond Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 Not had much to do with 00 since I was a teenager, so excuse me for being dim. What are "box-opener's remarks"? Best Simon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What are "box-opener's remarks"? Best Simon Box opener's remarks.... OO RTR threads are infested with comments such as: About time they produced X but why oh why are they not doing Y I won't buy X until they produce Z livery in the exact livery only I will want X was announced 5mins ago why isn't it in the shops yet If only they produced Z, I know 3 people who want one, it's bound to be a winner I'm devastated that X had a rivet out of place, so unrealistic The shade of green is just wrong Lining too thick Etc etc Generally me, me, me, I want, I want, I want. No patience and increasing poor manners. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Hal Nail Posted January 11, 2017 RMweb Premium Share Posted January 11, 2017 As soon as anyone who has already paid a B set deposit hears anything specific regarding balancing payment and delivery from Dapol, would be appreciated if they could flag so others with an existing order can confirm. I've already paid to open the box so want to know I'm going to be sent one! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've already paid to open the box so want to know I'm going to be sent one! My deposit was paid to Richard at Telford in 2015. I'm not sure whether said deposit has been handed over to Dapol or not - am assuming it has and that I will receive some sort of confirmation in due course, along with a request for the balance. Hopefully it won't be too long now!! Gerry Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Hal Nail Posted January 16, 2017 RMweb Premium Share Posted January 16, 2017 Had an e mail from Dapol today advising that they are expecting to receive details of deposits already paid later this week and will be able to confirm those held after that.

RMweb Premium boxbrownie Posted January 16, 2017 RMweb Premium Share Posted January 16, 2017 Is it still possible to pre-order them now? Not sure....but I am waiting, as the pricing on several Lionheart items I bought just last year have dropped considerably since being taken over by Dapol.

Kev_Lewis Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Is it still possible to pre-order them now? Probably best to give Tower Models a call. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
two tone green Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 According to Dapol today at the Bristol show the B sets are on the high seas and here around mid Feb. Bad news for me is that they are the GWR ones and mine the Bristol lined maroon ones are a few weeks behind on another boat. But they are coming.
