Just received my two packs, really blown away by the detail, colour scheme and box art, these coaches are on a different level altogether, really well done lads 👍. I won't put up any photos as they are the same as the two lads post above. ( also I'm still not sure how to put up my own photos yet, but don't tell anybody).

Postie arrived, was intrigued, and had to see them once told what was inside. He remembers them, and totally unaware anything like it was available. 

Make sure your name is recorded for the commission when he orders a few.

Just got my shipping notification. The tension is building! Usually takes a few days for stuff to get here so I'll have to contain my excitement until then.

You definitely won't be disappointed Philip, they are pure class looking.

I am so jealous, envious, angry, and hate-filled right now.

You guys and your almost-instant delivery!

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr, I hope you get rain, rain and more rain!

😂😂😂😂😂

Coaches look wonderful and it's great to see such positive feedback. Be a few months before mine arrive, but I'm sure they'll be worth the wait.

Looking very well ... I have to say the box looks great too: it really pops out!!

I'll have mine waiting for me when I get home from holidays next week (cue frantic scrambling to get DPD to redirect delivery)

My two packs arrived today and they are stunning models. The missus saw the boxes they were delivered in and had one of those WTF episodes not because the models are amazing but WTF have you bought now, is there any more of that going to arrive, haven't you got enough already. I turned on the ringtone on my phone and said sorry love I have to take this now.

Be careful what you wish for DJ.

More rain means more time for trains, to run them and more videos.....😁. Then how would you feel?

Looking forward to mine, but now of course I have a big pile of part started  Lima conversions. 

I will end up with more buffet conversions than in real life!   

The B4 bogie packs arrived today which is good as I can now faff with GSV models for B5 bogies, just in time for the announcement of Dutch and Mk1 gen brakes ...

What is one of the most standout features for myself is they are 95% of the way to matching the MM Mark ( shade of orange ) 2A coaches in the IE livery. Anyone modelling the BR scene will testify as to how other manufacturers can't even match the shades of the same livery in batches produced a few years apart.I love the MM ones and the IRM MK2's take them up a level or two. Well done IRM. Can't wait for the B4 bogies from IRM to arrive to fit to the MM ones.

Lovely photos, @Bob229, the coaches look fabulous!

Yeah, poor old @Rob is well and truly out of business with his massochistic no-smoking-sign application fetish.
