Modification Planning - Suggestions Please?

Hornby have already made models of Stepney and Duck although they are very hard to find

Duck can be got reasonably easy in the UK, home of Hornby, but its not as common as the main characters Thomas, Percy, Gordon, James, Edward. However Duck would be an easy conversion if you picked up a 0-6-0 GWR Pannier Tank as that's what he's based on.

Stepney seems to be almost as rare as hens teeth as is Emily, however it seems the rarest so far is Spencer which is odd as that would be an easy conversion as well. All you would need is an example of one of the silver A4's such as Silver Link or Silver Fox and a new face (might even be able to rob one off a Tomy example.

Why not make up your own character? That way your creativity has no bounds or limits of what it should look like. How about Benji, Gladys, Einstein, Falstaff, Gray Dog, Super, King Fish, Spinner, Wainright, Gargamill, Paddle Foot, Widget, Freud...the ideas are endless.

I may just do that, I could create 'Nigel' and give him a funky livery Although if I were to do a 'Nigel' I should probably find an A3/A4 donor and call him "Sir Nigel Gresley" with a cool paint job
