Hi everyone, I was wondering from where I might be able to purchase this range of kits? Or is the manufacturer the best way to go? Thanks in advance.

I've always bought mine (in 4mm) from him (at shows or by post).
He does most of the major shows.

It will have to be by post then, as the chances of me getting to any UK show are pretty slim!

HI Again,
Yes, I was talking to Jim in June at the GOG Halifax show and apparently Jim is stopping his 4mm range for the moment and just concentrating on 7mm. He did say that he had a few 4mm kits left, so if you want some, get in there quick.
Regards,
