Hi Sean Thanks for posting - this is good news, a Renown in plastic at last . I've got to ask; are those Airfix-style Aztec-steps/ ladders I see? I'm sure Kostas will strongly disagree All the very best Karol

Interesting choice for them to release. With the addition of a good PE set and some additional detailing it should be quite the nice project. Thanks for the heads up.

They are not Aztec Karol , i think they belong to the fifteen dynasty 1000 AC, still bloody ancient .They don't seem to be solid but rather single pieces that u glue on.

I've just had another look at the pics and I've got to say/add that the 8-barrel pom-poms look quite nice. Cheers Karol
