Thanks for the writeups.  Mine are all still to assemble, but I'm feeling good about starting them. 

I'm currently obsessing over the scenery sprues... word on the Mantic forums is that you don't really get enough connector sprues in the sets, but they're selling them at £2.50 each.

Yeah I'm concerned about the scenery as well. I'm not going to look at assembling for a while. I'll wait for some tips on how best to do it.
