Re: MKVII Satchel: Screen Accurate with MODERN Interior!

Might have to order one of these! My current second-hand Magnoli that I've had for... oh, eleven years maybe?... is showing enough wear that I've relegated it to just costume use. Would be nice to be able to have an MK VII to use on a regular basis again.
