I feel sorry now. :D
I know it sounded too good to have 1/35 boat model from such well respected stable. ;D

All good? No f-ing way! I bought it and could only think about redesigning our upcoming 1:72 Type II kit for 1:35! Siara really must be tortured. I suppose it's my own fault for not being skeptical and suspicious, but you tend to trust your mates...

Don't feel bad Siara, I'll get my revenge knowing you DON'T have a shrinking ray and can't crew your FUNCTIONAL uboat! HAhahahahahahaha! All that effort for nothing! NOTHING!!! No little men for that amazingly gorgeous uboat with working deck gun! ahhahahahahahahahah!

That sounded a bit crazy.
Sorry. I'm OK now.

I will personally write the email to Tamiya, and ask them to design the 1/35 boat we can all enjoy. Im sure it would be popular model.
Wink- i have never seen you write in such crazy fashion- i thought its only me having the "acting stupid" days. ;)

BTW: any luck with the isolators? Has it arrived yet? If so - did you find it? ;D
