I thought it was an early April Fools joke at first - too much on the website for that.
If you check the FAQ you'll note that the first "issue" is GBP 2.99 and subsequent are GBP 8.99.
I don't know whether that includes shipping, my guess is that might be extra as it is more than just a flat magazine they are sending you.
It also mentions that there are over 100 "issues", so you are looking at a minimum of GBP 900 for the replica - sounds high to me, considering you have to contribute your own labour; but then I don't know the price of a completed replica.
Issues would come out every week, so it would take 2 years to have everything delivered.
The big question is what happens if the project/company goes bust ?
You would have a partially completed model with no way to finish it.
Sounds like an interesting concept, but one to stay away from - primarily for the risk factor.
