Well done Airfix!

Postby Olicat » Wed Jan 26, 2011 5:42 pm

A month or two back i purchased the out of production 1:48 Buccaneer at a local shop and found that the canopy hadn't molded right,
someone suggested that i should email them to get a new one but i wasn't sure thay could.
I sent the email and forgot about it.

Just a second ago i saw a white packet adressed to me, and inside was the whole clear parts sprue for the bucc :ymapplause:
Fly fast jets and/or C130s over my house please, I'm bored!

BUCCANEER TO THE SKY!

Nice one Airfix.

Looks like they might get another e-mail saying "Thanks"!

Most of the model companies are pretty good like that. I've had replacements from Airfix and Revell. I would reckon that the others would do it too. Usually for free too :ymapplause: :ymapplause:
NB; Any negative comments I post about the Vulcan are posted SOLELY to wind Gregg up!
