Ainsty New Releases. Buggy Drivers and Droids...

Inspired by the superb Buggy modelled by Paul Smith, I have had Ian Mountain sculpt these beauties for me. Available now from the Ainsty website and the Ainsty stand at shows

Absolutely ace! There's never enough 'workers' in any range, and these look like they'd make excellent minions... and great droids too! Not-Huey, Dewey and Louie, by any chance?

Which one is a not-Bruce Dern?

Wasn't it Hughie, Dewey and Louey?

Neat the only thing that has put me off buying those up to now was wondering who would drive them.
Soon they will be joining my Crocked Dice minions.
I used to be with it, but then they changed what it was. Now what I'm with isn't it anymore and what is it seems weird and scary.

Here's a question for Andy.

I made a order to Ainsty just the other day and 'almost' bought the Utility Unit (SF 1059). The description states that it comes with a "random chassis unit of either 6 wheels, 8 wheels or tracked." I wanted the 6 wheel version but was unsure how to make sure I got what I wanted so I didn't order it.

Do you put that in the remarks section of the order form and will be it honored?

Cheers

Ray, I can do whichever you wish. If you put it in the comments I will pick it up from there. I dont have a drop down menu set up on my website for options at the moment.

Just wanted to thank you for one of those enjoyable work moments.

I had the first image up on the screen yesterday, and a fellow from the next shift instantly recognized the movie, but choked on the title. Suffered several minutes before I told him.  lol

We then spent ten minutes of the turnover talking about which was Valley Forge and which was Berkshires, how I remember Cliff Potts, but not the 'evil' guy from Alias, the actors they used for the Huey et al, Uncle Scrouge, finishing with how our significant others don't understand how we can remember all this s**t.  :D

Don't expect us to remember anniversaries, though.

Doug
