    You must have been a member since yesterday, the 12th of september to play.

    Raffle closes on the 28th of september at noon central EUROPEAN time !

    Let the madness begin :laugh: !

    Update

    Here´s a quote from Steve Witt about this set:

    The V-19 in question is a promo item being utilized by the BeNeLux market. I believe there is one more for the year (3 showed up on FBTB and EB several months, one of which will never be released). So there's not an official Mini's line, but there are mini's. They're very limited in their release though.
