I've seen the Pegasis in action on the open sea. It came out of no where and did a few circles around our destroyer and it vanished again like a shot. So cool. Back in the early 80's it was soooo high tech. Laugh, my God that seems like it was so long ago. The 80's, heh, I'm getting old.

Hi Jim and all

Many thanks for the "Token Yank" and Caroline for bringing this beauty again in production - hmmm perhaps a bigger scale version production (1/144) in the future?
;)

You should see the looks I get when I say our patrol vehicles were gun jeeps. Which is followed with..."Were you in Vietnam?" :-) :-) :-)

Close, but no cigar.
