I finally gave in. With copies of the original becoming scare and my Blood Red Skies wargaming friends constantly buzzing with enthusiasm I had to jump onto the train before it left the station (see below, "my" copy of Blood Red Skies - I am now officially a BRS person):
The classic 1940 Battle Britain dogfight starter kit, soon I believe to be replaced with version 2 Midway(?) if my sources are to be believed (see below, the unboxing):
1/200 scale planes. Another scale I have a Spitfire in. Well they also match my Skytrex Action 1/200 .. but I cannot see a cross over (yet). Games will come but I need to do the first thing all new BRS players have to do - even before reading the rules - paint the planes

It is a grand game Geordie, I got my starter set for Christmas gone. It was ideal for me because I could play it straight from the box without painting the planes. In the better spring weather I bought the transfers (which should have been included in the box IMO) and got them painted. I look forward to seeing yours in action.

Welcome!
I's strongly recommend decals from either Warlord or MiscMinis - the in box "stickers" are designed with a 6 year old in mind
On the stickers - keep them - they are useful for differentiating your clouds and which high cover markers are which
Thanks Gents
Thanks for the heads up on the stickers Renko
Much appreciated :)
