    Fantastic interview and as another commented, it just goes to show what a little enthusiasm and passion can do, along with a great team, anything is possible. ICM are going from strength to strength, and my wishlist is growing ever larger! Can't wait for the Henschal 129 next year!
    A lovely thought too with the giveaway Gary! How wonderful of her!

    I love their twin engine bombers. It's nice to see some of those ancient kits [from other manufactures] get replaced, and new subjects get released [as injection kits for the first time] with modern tolloings by ICM. I'm really looking forward to getting my hands on a #marauder, and seeing what they hav ein store for 2025.

    What a wonderful interview Gary! 👏 👏 Valeriia talks so openly and candidly about the company, it's so refreshing to hear! So different from the subterfuge and masked comments from many other manufacturers! I especially love how they want to interact and listen to modellers. And all this while under the dark cloud of war! Its quite remarkable and unbelievable in equal measures! Valeriia answers everything with alot of thought and consideration and seems warm and engaging. Really enjoyed the interview Gary, fantastic work mate 👏 👍
    Oh and don't forget the giveaway! How fantastic of Valeriia to give not one but two kits away! How amazing of her! 😁

    I was lucky enough to be able to watch the actual live stream and what a down to earth person Valeriia is. You can tell that she is passionate about the business as a whole and what an amazing company ICM are, to be able to still maintain a quality business during such a terrible conflict. Top marks to Valeriia and the whole ICM team. #marauder

    #Humvee. What a strong and inspirational lady. Very positive, driven but philosophical about the 'here and now' war situation in their life. It's good that she was determined in wanting to keep a more unique kit product line rather than follow others with their versions of the same. Really glad the sirens didn't go off. Thanks Gary.
