Are they all £1.99 for the first month and then £1 squillion for each subsequent month?

I am not sure, I always loose intrest after the first month.

So far I have collected and built a funnel of the Titanic, the tail fin of a ME 262 WWII jet fighter and the left claw of "Sir Kill-a-lot" from robot wars.

The one I did once lasted until the last partwork, though it probably cost me loads of pocket money (shows how long ago it was though)  ;D

... have to own up to buying the Tractor one yesterday - BUT only 'cos I wanted the model for £1.99 - it's a "little grey Fergie" and has sentimental interest as I used to have one (a real one) ... and two of my daughters "learned to drive" on it. [Or at least pootle round the fields when we had a very small farm]

Magazine/partwork was total crap ... read one page and into the recycling.

Question : Just how many people buy the whole set of these things? .... the fall-out rate must be colossal.

I am totally failing to understand the basic premise of this thread. Why would I want to buy magazines about tractors or tanks? ???
