  1. yes the  Mercades WR page shows zero  downloads gives error. Also this portal thing is actually worse  then the original  In my humble opinion. the original needs to just be updated better with a way to sort this out. newer models at the top with expired or on Hold  models below.  Having to sort through the  account 1 through 4 not sure what's what  is more a nightmare then anything. just hope there's more  website updates coming to  streamline it  much better. please..

    It is helpful to have all the parts ahead of time to be sure of possible future fitting problems.Of course having complete model instructions is important. I often look ahead to be sure that I am on the right track. Some of us may have poor health and don't know how long they will be able to build models. I have four subscriptions ongoing and can't wait for them to be completed. Never again will I go the sub route.

    Yeah I get the. Health thing. We never know about that.  And I hope I get to finish my models before I  kick it.

  3. So I have mentioned some of this in my email when needing support.   As we look at the interface for the members side.   We see when a payment is about to be taken.   There is only the order number for that model. It displays only the model name(s). 
    What would be nice is to see which pack(s). This payment covers. Wether it’s a12/24 month’s subscription.  This way we would know that it was say pack 4 or pack 6 of the model.   Same would be for the order page.  
    Also would be nice to see our. Preorders there.   We could filter out our expired subscriptions from the list.

  4. Personally with about 20 concurrently ongoing subscriptions or so starting or ending.  I’ve had thoughts of the way the parts work companies have been. At least with agora the models can be completed in  12 months vs the deagostini(fanhome, modelspace,altyia) and the now defunct EM. Who dragged them out for 24 months.  I did do a 6 month start on the zero fighter and that was nice.  But if your only doing one model I could see why some like that or people who want to have something to do in spare time.    We all have different needs and budgets.   I agree that the EM thing soured a lot of people.  I see my 4 models they are starting up again. Are still going to drag out for over a year.   But we still got to deal with delivery companies that can take their own time.  Weather , disasters and customs.  Along with the fact that. From payment to warehouse we all end up in a queue. So if you got 5 people working one day they might get 200 packages sent out vs another day being. Only 120 if 3 people work. As a example. Not to mention that they are shipping multiple models and  they don’t work on. The weekends.  You also have to think about some places only have pick ups going out certain days.  Like EM use to only ship on Wednesday and Fridays.  Things are getting back to normality in some places it’s just taken time 

  5. I built the EM DB5 the only issues i had with it was the way you built it and the car ejector seat  now if Agora makes theirs with rotating  emblems  and things that are with a push of a remote that would be nice. I would  definately like the other  Bond cars they had aside from the  original aston martian  car

  6. My mom use to drag race when  don garlits was racing in the  early 60s. up here in Milan michigan. She use to  have a 1955 bel air rag top with a corvette engine and a 3 speed pontiac transmission. she use to race with no handicap and beat guys,   She use to do pin striping and flames. she got out after she had finished a flames on a  Model A souped up and the guys  car with up in flames, after a race  cause the guy he raced was mad her mom never knew.  last she knew the car she had and sold  was chased off the manhatten pier  by cop cars 

  7. got mine  yesterday  but going to wait for another pack to do 2 at once  looking through the instructions  the motor looks very detailed. im thinking that i might go with the rain tire look and se about making a mod for the other wheels and rear spoiler.

    I just send you another email

    Make sure to check your spam junk folders I was getting emails coming about specials and declined card on a few of my builds and shipment updates but my hotmail would flag them as spam. Even after repeatedly changing it to come in the right folder   Even if you’ve looked once check them all

  9. I believe it’s cause they just gotten to 110 with hatchette.  And I suspect. This will be the case with 111-120 as well. That agora won’t ship till after those have been supplied to hatchette customers first.

  10. wow those tiny germans werent very good at maintaining their deck.  they be court marshaled  for their lack luster work.  good thing they didnt make it back 😛  

    AWESOME job on weathering though love feel of the gritty sea that bashed this  ship as it sailed.  love to see your engine room if your doing that too.  And are you planing on doing the hull like a stain where the water mightve tarnished it where the water met the air? ah never mind i saw the  earlier photos when i scrolled back through of the hull

    Looks like we might possibly see a Adam West Batmobile from Eaglemoss.  I really hope it happens.  Now, if Agora would do a Jurassic Park jeep, I would be set.

    very exciting

    I wouldn’t hold your breath til it actually ships.   They got the titanic too and that’s yet to ship 

  12. Yes actually ian campbell has a  temp stand  for sale  to hold it  its featured in world of Waynes videos and if it were all metal to even that point its be twice as heavy.  Also given how some  parts like the  thigh in metal might be harder to cast then a plastic injection mold.  and cost /time  and shipping weight. yeah i know a few times  you open the box and  you get all these light boxes of parts and then another is heavy. 

  13. getting multiple stages  like this is much more fun you can see things come together faster and feel like your actually  getting more done vs 1 issue  or 4 to 5 issues with other builds when some of them never have anything anything you just get a part
