Lego SR71

Hi Folks

First post here. I hope I have the right subforum. I have done a bit of research on the forums and …WOW I was really impressed with the quality of posts – clearly a lot of very knowledgeable people here. With that in mind, I really don’t want to P** anyone off – so please don’t flame me too hard. On to why I am here….

I am an adult fan of Lego (AFOL). I am also quite interested in military jets. A couple of years ago, I was playing with a few black bricks and the nose section of a Lockheed SR-71 “Blackbird” started to take shape. I pursued it further and found I needed to order some extra bricks to finish it off. While I was ordering the bricks from different places, paying postage and packing etc, the SR71 really started to take shape, friends started to comment on what a lovely model it was. It occurred to me that other people – plane enthusiasts, might like this and I was already paying P&P on all the bits. So I decided to build a limited run of 10 kits and offer them for sale. – 10 was the number because that was basically all the money I had to hand at the time! I have sold 5 so far (3 UK, 2 US), and have had very positive feedback from the buyers. Anyway, here’s a photo…

I have put 00s of hours into this and I really want them to go to enthusiasts. – in the main, I just wanted you guys to see model!

Any comments welcome.
