Hi 45039 - no gen afaik but they can't hold out on us forever. I have 44008, 46053 and Royal Artilleryman in green, along with a Hymek, Warship, Western and a bucket, but would like another Peak, a rat and a 14. Thinking about 45114 quite seriously at the moment.

Why not just compare the existing models against photos of those not already covered, to see which will be suitable for renumbering

The problem is 114 has the short-lived white lining on it, and not may 1ers carried that. Renumbering is therefore restricted.
I suppose you could renumber and rename a 44 fairly easily (other than doing Snowdon and Tryfan - grilles different for a start, then there's number 9's nose end to contend with).
46053 would be easy enough to renumber too - in fact, I have the T-cut standing by to turn mine into the beast that was 46025 (RIP:cry.
(I'm also considering renumbering my model of 40015 to either 025 or 035 - but I have to confess I think the nameplate is a bit big so it would be a patient and steady hand that sorted that out!).
