Post by **Lee** » Thu Dec 11, 2014 7:35 pm

Got mine today. I started to open it then realised that it had a hobby shop address in Madrid on it so quickly stopped cutting, didn't see what was in it.

Looking forward to seeing what I've got

Cheers whoever it was

The custom in Sweden is that you open your gifts at 24 of December

shouldn't we have vote to open on 24 or 25 since we are international scale modellers.

and my patience is soooo bad!

I will be purchasing my gift and sending it Saturday 13th. Apologies but I have not been able to tear myself away from the office and get to the local model shop before it closes!

I'd say do what is your normal custom. For us it's Christmas Eve for our personal gifts (my wife and myself) and Christmas Day for family gifts (when we get together at the grandparents' house).

Totally agree, fantastic idea and really exciting, especially choosing a gift for someone you don't know and waiting to see what they think of it!

Mine arrived today care of the neighbours, thanks to whoever sent it, can't wait to see what it is - already guessing potential manufacturers etc by feeling if it is top or side opening! Pesky packaging offers no clues ......
