We're on the move!

Well, not quite - but we will be soon…

Since 2015, we’ve been based at a lovely business centre, just outside Edinburgh. Honestly - it’s really nice and has served us well. It’s the offices you would have seen pictures of whenever we’re in the press. Nice though it is, of course - it’s always better to have a place of your own. So please say hello to the new building that we have just bought!

These are the Droids you're looking for...

Well, at least one of the droids! It was Edinburgh Comic Con this past weekend and, as it’s our local con, we thought it was time to do a BIG Build. Actor Jimmy Vee was one of the guest this years, best known for his roles in Harry Potter, Doctor Who and - of course - Star Wars! Jimmy played R2D2 in episodes VII and VIII, so it was great to get his seal of approval on the final model.
