Working wipers. Locking diffs. A pop-up tent. 🏔️

Yeah these 1/7 scale Rlaarlo crawlers are not messing around. Tony and Brett unbox the Jeep and the GQ-style patrol rig and both are absolutely loaded.

Full interiors, brushless motors, working lights, the lot. These things are built to stare at as much as they are to run.

The MPC 1/48 Eagle Transporter from Space: 1999! 🚀

One of the most iconic sci-fi spacecraft ever put on screen and this kit captures it pretty well. Classic subject, classic kit.

The kind of build that looks great on any shelf.

Don't let the 12.5cm fool you 🚂

Hornby's 2025 GNR J13 saddle tank is packed with detail, diecast body, five-pole motor, metal handrails, removable coal load, sprung buffers and that chunky built-up chimney.

Will James cracks open number 1257 in Great Northern Railway lined green and it's a proper little thing.

Pride month's wrapping up so here's the most on-theme train we've ever covered! 🏳️‍🌈

The Hornby Greater Anglia FLIRT in full rainbow livery. Will James walks through the whole thing, directional lights, illuminated interiors, DCC-controlled destination boards, dual motors, the lot.

It's a proper looker and it runs just as good: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AMWqe5ltRw0

Every steam era layout needs one of these!💧

The Hearns Workshop VR Type A Water Crane in HO scale is based on the ornate Victorian Railways lever type design, built in three pieces so the nozzle actually swivels.

Mount it straight to your layout or use the included base.

Kobey's cracking open the Airfix 1/48 Jaguar GR.1! 🚀

Fine moulding, multiple scheme options, and a solid decal sheet. He also gets into the actual aircraft history which makes it a pretty good watch even before you decide to buy.

Part 2 of the Far-Farina build and Kawa's deep in prep work !🔧

Gate marks, gap filling with cement and putty, sanding the hair parts down right. Not the flashiest part of a build but this is exactly what separates a clean finish from a messy one.
