Cross country skiing is great if you live in a small country.

NF, have you heard anything back from Play yet about compensation? I tried calling Johnny last night, but apparently he's been on holiday and now off sick!
Sweet pics by the way! I'm very interested in picking up some of these cases for the Pred and some PF's as well.

Thanks, yep, i posted a reply a few posts back, after getting nowhere with Johnnys team i sent a !%&!%&!%&!%&ty email and took it to head office and dealt with a great guy there, he looked into it, called me back both times he said he would, and i got a £100 refund too.
Send a complaints email, care of Nick Ashby, dont blow his head off, explain your case, let him deal with it, really great guy to deal with.

Those look awesome - it will be nice to see what it looks like illuminated
If you dont mind, I had a couple questions for you about the cases:
What are the dimensions of the Pred case?
What thickness of acrylic did they use?
What is the base made of?
Im liking the Alien setup with the inclusion of the Attakus piece very nice

The Case is 720mm Wide x 600mm deep x 850mm high.
They used 4mm thick acrylic.....altho they will do thicker if you like, but its fine as is, the base holds it sturdy at the bottom and the top keeps the rest rigid. If you push on the front there is very little flex.
The base was NOT included in the order, i did them myself, they are high glossed mdf, details to follow. They do do plinths etc, but not sure what types, you would need to enquire about them.
'Im liking the Alien setup with the inclusion of the Attakus piece very nice'
Thanks, i figured as the pred had extra scenery the alien could do with some too lol....it also involved repositioning the alien on his base, his back leg is now towards the rear right of the base not in the centre as it was....but i much prefer this because the alien is actually facing forwards now not sideways. Again i'll include more detailed pics once i have the power adaptors.
