There's only a 1:18 924.

Also...I'd think IV/03 would mean April?

Oops, sorry I got a little carried away.

I was told they are also doing the 944/968 series in 1:18, and I just grabbed the 1:43 ones without looking.

But they are doing them all in 1:18. I guess they only show the 2003 releases on that PDF. Maybe I'll have to wait till my next brithday in '04 to get them. Oh well!

No. 04/03 would be April 2003.

IV/03 = 4th Quarter 2003
