It looks a bit of a monster when put next to a 25mm fig, it would almost certainly be servicable for 28mm.

Nice work, Gents. Definitely works for 25/28mm. Best, Dean

You may consider it picky, but they botched the torsion bundles, though they aren't the first ones to do it. Here's a head on shot of the models.

Rather than being twisted all one way, the cords should have reversed direction after the throwing arm.

Picky, picky…grin Just kidding; thanks for the clarification – would never have known the difference. Dean

Yes I thought that when I made the kits up, a pity but only a small issue.

Very nice! I wonder if they would work in 15mm… ;)

Thanks for the info…I should have noticed the mistake in the torsion cords…IŽve built a small working replica and after twisting the cords all one way and it didnŽt fire properly I looked up the correct method on the web. Mind you, it was a few years ago so IŽll use the excuse of memory loss ;-D
