When I went to the Weston Park event some new collections were displayed , Mr Ben, Magic Roundabout, Captain Scarlet, which one do you think you might collect, I can't wait for Mr Ben I am sure they will have all of the differnet costume change characters from the TV program and the shop keeper etc, it should be a good range to collect......Cinta , when are they planned for release?

I don't think i'll be starting a new collection - the Beano and Dandy collection alone is a huge portion of my expenses already, i won't be able to afford a new collection.
However if i had to speculate i think that the Captain Scarlet collection would interest me the most and Mr. Ben the least i'm afraid.
All those possibilities for the Captain Scarlet range: Captain Scarlet, Black, Blue, Colonel White, Lieutenant Green (male&female), Magenta, Cyan, Yellow? and the Angels of course - Destiny, Rhapsody, Melody, Symphony
Plus theres all the jets, transport, mysterons, etc etc

There's going to be a Captain Scarlet collection? Oh joy, oh rapture!
I'm on board, big time!
Anyone know what was displayed at Weston? Hungry for gossip.

Yeah i would like to know exactly what pieces were there, as i was not at the event either.
All these new collections is just really great, it must be really exciting at Harrops at the moment and must be doing really well...
:D

At the event they had a display with Mr Benn coming out of the box , Dougal from Magic Roundabout and Captain Scarlet himself , I asked if any others were coming out and as always they are not giving too much away, the reply was " Wait and see" so lets see what is in store........

Dandie, could you tell me whether it was original Captain Scarlet, or new Captain Scarlet? The former, I hope.

Good news!
I suspect it will be the classic Captain Scarlet, to tie in with the Thunderbirds range. Most RHD collectors are of a certain age, after all...
Let's hope they get beyond the first 6 characters though.
And the Magic Roundabout is sure to be a winner.
But I strongly doubt I'll start collecting any of them. My flat's only small and every inch is already taken up with Camberwick Green pieces as it is - nowhere to put them, you see...
Now, where's that Mary, Mungo and Midge collection???

For me it would have to be the magic roundabout collection. I always admired the sugar lump pieces but some are so scarce it would cost a fortune but if RH realeased them then you could start from the begining. Favorite piece would have to be Dillon with his banjo. Come on Cinta when are they being released?

Hi Steve,
they were to the left of Matt Buckley and Peggy's stand where they were demonstrating the model making process, in a glass case
