Also I have seen prices drop after a few years for almost all of the new issue kits especially the larger ones

I don't mind the price for a good kit BUT what i HATE is the fact they will stick it in a box way bigger than needed! It should fit in the same size box as the Valiant. All though it will fill out the box far better than the Shackleton kit does! the box it was placed in is just plain stupid big! It moves around a lot in the box and makes it cost far more to post THINK AIRFIX!!! duh.....
