HACHETTE PARTWORK ANNOUNCE 1/12TH SCALE EDDIE STOBART MODEL
Following on from the success of their 1:12th scale Routemaster model (I really must finish mine), Hachette have announced another iconic model. This model features Eddie Stobart DAF articulated model ROA311M named Twiggy. I don't know how many parts the model will be built over, but probably similar to the Routemaster which had 130 issues. To find out further details, visits the Hachette Partwork website at https://www.buildeddiestobart.com/

I cannot consider this until I have completed my Routemaster, so not sure whether I will be taking on this build.

SOME NEWS OF EDDIE STOBART MODELS
Apologies for the long delay in posting news, this is down to a combination of factors including both lack of model news from the manufactures and personal reasons on my side resulting in me having very little free time. I am now having to work at home due to the awful virus, so hopefully I will have some more free time as I will no longer have my commute to work each day, albeit I will still be fully employed working my usual 9 hour shifts whilst at home. I hope you and your families are keeping safe and I also hope that this awful situation can be resolved sooner rather than later and we can all try and get our lives back to normal. I have listed below one new model Oxford Diecast, which has been announced since I last published to the website. Corgi released their 2020 catalogue in January and again there are no new truck announcements. I fear we have now seen the last of truck releases from Corgi.

NEW MODEL ANNOUNCED BY OXFORD DIECAST
In January Oxford Diecast announced one new model, the release date is not known at this time:
76MSV002 - Mercedes Sprinter Van Stobart Rail
Registration number: PF63JZU
Fleet number: RV322
