Got a couple of big boxes this week. First is the Village Church by RT Dioramas.
And on Ali Express I saw the Border Models (ex WNWs) Lancaster Bomber. It is the second version, the Dam Buster, but from revies it has all the parts to make the first version.
I have wanted one since I first heard of it but the cost was just too expensive. $1200 or more Cdn. This was less than half the cost and very cheap shipping so in a moment of insanity I ordered it. OMG but what a huge box it comes in. My wife asked if she could use it for a side table after telling me this was just going to be built by someone else seeing as I wont live long enough to finish all I have. Oh well. She'll probably flip when my 1/35 He 111 arrives in the next week.

@ jknaus Glad you were able to obtain one of the WNW Lancasters!
I just looked on AliExpress and they still have the MkI/MkIII kits for $672 or so US. No Damnbuster kits left I guess. I was happy to get the MarkI/III back when Andy got them in originally.
Also Kotare is having a sale with several of their kits marked down from $109 to $90.
