"Hi Chris,

I just want to let you know that my lights for the Ford Torino arrived today and they work just fine. I want to thank you for providing such an excellent service. I've ordered from you twice now and both times I have been dealt with superbly. I am really glad I found your website and will definitely be ordering from you again as I want to create a small fleet of movie car models. Sad I know but I'm retired now and I have to do something. I have been a modeller for nearly fifty years but for the last thirty years have concentrated mainly on figure painting. Last year I made the kit of USS Voyager from Star Trek and I wanted to light it as I had never done this to a kit before. To say this was difficult is an understatement as the firm I ordered from sent me loose LED lights and resistors and I had to learn how to solder everything together. It was a real learning curve but happily turned out good and I got the lighting bug. Finding your site where everything is already joined together is a really great find for me, and to find a site that is as reliable with fantastic service is rare these days. So I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank you. Please, if you are able, use this email on your feedback system. I look forward to speaking to you again soon for the next project. Got to build the Torino and the Ecto 1 first though.

Best wishes John Scott"

"Captain Jack!

I previously ordered the X Wing light kit from you and am delightfully satisfied with your easy to install pre wired kit! I have just purchased this Millennium Falcon light kit!

I'm SO VERY EXCITED you came through with this PRE WIRED lighting kit! Now, when I assemble my Revell Millennium Falcon, it will be complete! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!

"I can highly recommend the friendly and prompt service from Chris at Captain Jacks models.

He offered great beginners advice and a great lighting rig at a very good price and went above and beyond by including some extras.

Thanks for helping to bring my project alive."

Mr Paul Bailey

A big thank you to Mr Andrew Bairstow for sending in work-in-progress photos of his latest project - great work and superb attention to detail.

Paul sent in these photos showing how he installed the standard Revell light kit into his AMT/ERTL model. I'm sure you'll agree he's made a great job of it.

"Hi Chris it's Shane from Australia. I just received my 3mm X 5 lighting system today in the post and I just wanted to say a massive thank you for the extra lights that you sent me this was such a surprise and I wanted to let you know that I really really appreciated it. .......I actually needed another set for this C-130 I'm building and didn't realize it till the weekend so it will definitely get used. That is awesome customer service guys right there, which might I add is rare in this day and age. So thank you once again.
I'm only a small time builder but I will definitely use your lights in all my builds and recommend you as often as possible.
Cheers again, Shane from Oz"

A great Bandai Falcon build by Mr Gavin Snowdon:

Received your package just now. This is most generous and I appreciate your thought very much.

I am a member of a model boat club and was given your details by a colleague. I am the editor of the club's newsletter and will most
suredly promote your business in the next issue due in March. Your customer relations is of the highest order and makes model building so much more enjoyable. Thank you again.

Hello again Chris,
Here is the built and painted model using your light kit. I'm very satisfied with the results and, have recommended you guys to my modeler buddies. I've attached some pictures with my permission for you to post them if you should so choose. Again, highly recommended, I would give it four thumbs up if I could, as I'm sure the non-human charcters in Star Wars probably would.
