Railer Posted December 25, 2013 Share Posted December 25, 2013 Wanted to get a few 071s but bought myself a PS4 instead. Will pick up a grey 071, 080 and 111 in the new year though once I start offloading a load of airsoft gear I don't use anymore. The man with the beard couldn't track down any SF Mk1 GSVs or Mk3 EGVs sadly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UP6936 Posted December 25, 2013 Author Share Posted December 25, 2013 Sounds good Dunluce, looking forward to seeing the photos. Railer, are you going to get a MM grey 071 or a repaint? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunluce Castle Posted December 25, 2013 Share Posted December 25, 2013 Here she is She's very detailed and very heavy, beautiful looking as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Railer Posted December 25, 2013 Share Posted December 25, 2013 Railer, are you going to get a MM grey 071 or a repaint? Going to get a MM grey one then get someone to file off the grab irons and touch up the marks left behind and add the infamous orange wiper. I'm trying to over look them but I just can't, shame they were left on the production models. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NIRCLASS80 Posted December 25, 2013 Share Posted December 25, 2013 Fitting a 071/111 with a decoder is easy. First remove the body screws 4off, that you will find below the bogies in sunken holes. Gently remove the main body by grabbing the model by the fuel tank and body and just gently wiggle and the body comes off. You will see the 21 pin plug, pull out and insert decoder and carry out the reverse procedure. 10 minutes and you should be done. Check the instructions in the box. I am just after doing 8113 from Santa!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riversuir226 Posted December 25, 2013 Share Posted December 25, 2013 The Mrs's thought she was a smart arse by wrapping one of my old 201 boxes and put it under the tree. Got myself 082 and Santy got me a load of decoders for my mm 201's and 071's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aclass007 Posted December 25, 2013 Share Posted December 25, 2013 Going to get a MM grey one then get someone to file off the grab irons and touch up the marks left behind and add the infamous orange wiper. I'm trying to over look them but I just can't, shame they were left on the production models. Has anyone done this already? I would like to see how it turned out, as I plan to do similar.... Also, does anyone know what shade of grey and yellow are a good match to the colours on the MM one, for touching up afterwards? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
