RMweb Premium Mallard60022 Posted April 4 RMweb Premium Share Posted April 4 (edited) Just received my D1479, Post 1961, Value Weathered version. Number 220 of 250. It is ABSOLUTELY SUPERB. A great collaboration between yourselves and Accurascale. I feel lucky to be able to purchase this (and my other Triple Pack earlier) but working for almost 60 years has given me that ability. Thank you all. Phil TMC photo. I think this is the version I have? Edited April 4 by Mallard60022 7 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
