Yup, I think Laura will be a bit disappointed. But this looks like a long term thing.

Most of the items are from the bargain bin and close to 50% off. Reach $100USD and Sprue Brothers refunds half the shipping costs. I can't help myself sometimes! OK, putty and sub were not really half off.

noted! I'm already making use of my Mr. Desolved Putty.
Hey, I am reviewing that Nuts & Bolts book!

B) It must be in the air! I just got these as well and the Roland is on the way. These are truly beautiful kits at Tamiya standards and the instructions are beyond any i have seen. Good to see Wingnuts breaking new ground and continually setting a new standard.
I am building a Roden Albatross at present and it is like building a model from the early 80's.
No comparison but nearly the same price here. Go New Zealand.

Ian, I would recommend the Windsock datafile 37 for the Roland although the reference pictures in the instructions are just as good and will do just fine. Also the new Gotha book I got by Ray Rimmel on building the WNW Gotha GIV is very interesting and a step by step build. Lots of hints and tips and info. I think well worth buying. I also got seat belts from Radub and the Parabelum 14's from Master Model. I got 3 but you could go with 2 as they didnt always carry 3. I really want to get a W 29. It looks so cool. Good haul and I'm sure lots of enjoyable hours.

Ian,
Nice to see what you will be working on soon! If I didn't already buy (at inflated prices to boot) Eduard's Brishfish and Crocodile, I would get the Bristol kit. I already have two Waifish (Roland C.II) from Eduard so I am hoping for some Fokker E.1 or DR.1 as I have NOT replaced the kit I gave away with the eyes and moustache.

Well, last time I ordered the wrong Churchill tracks and James already had them so I ended up getting another set but then... you know, added this and that to make shipping palatable...

The decals:
The two large ones on the bottom are extras thrown in so I can test them. Of the large sheets, the one on the left has a transparent film and the one on the right is printed on white decal stock.
