I subscribed way back last year when they first release. I called them just now to see if my subscription still enforce. However, I did received issue 4 last year for free, but when they sent that, it came with a notice that they will discontinue for the moment, however when they re-released, they will hand me issue 5 for free again.

So, again, those of you who subscribed and paid via credit card, they will charge you every month with 4 issues cost. For example, they will sent you issue 5 - 8, only when issue 8 is available. Which means, those who do not subscribed and buy from bookstore, will get issue 5 - 8 faster than those subscribed.

So the next batch of subscribers will received 4 issues + free gift.

I think they got quite a good respond on the subscriptions and are sorting things out for the moment. Some are current subscribers, some are last year subscribers like me.

Think we should start building up now. Otherwise when the part comes in rapidly, then we will be damm busy. biggrin.gif ... at least you can put more effort to assemble with each issues release and you got time to do it nicely.

Hacken, are you anticipating yours from Issue 5 onwards? Instead of Issue 1?

Since we both also already got first 4 issues last year and hence I told them to send me from 5th issues onwards.
*
Yup...when i got my free issue 4 last year, it came along with a letter stating of temporary discontinue, however once they resumed, they will sent issue 5 as free also as complimentary issue. Lucky i still keep this letter. I am gonna carbon fibred the issue 4 suspension later.

hahhaa...ya...u wont finish that in 1 day. it take several days to assemble. Imagine when you have over 70 packing on the floor, it will be a mess. Better start doing this, maybe 5 issue by 5 issue to assemble.

need to wait for issue 7 to attach the nose to the wing, but the upper wing is not included sad.gif
looking at the official build dairy its safe to say that the nose wont be completed anytime before issue 30  sad.gif  sad.gif  sad.gif  sad.gif  sad.gif

enough of the ranting, here's some nice stuff!!

Hi, I plan to subscribe to this magazine and start building the McLaren. I've read that two types of glues are required, ABS glue and super glue (correct me if I'm wrong). What brand of these glues do you guys use and where can I obtain it if they're available locally? Thanks.

read back the last few comment, Vinc got tips.
