They're proving very popular over here. The bands are a disappointment though, they're old fashioned rubber as opposed to latex so they have an extremely heavy pull but they don't stretch very far so the velocity is low.
It's easy enough to re-band with TBG though.
The fork width is very narrow, so you'll find yourself having to allow a lot of hold-under

I live in the uk and got one of these recently, I had to clean up some flashing in the edges and the bands that came with it were really tough to draw so I put my own on. That said it was still totally worth it I always wanted one of these classic milbros and the originals are so rare and pricey on ebay that I'd probably never get to try one otherwise.

I did a video review of my milbro if you want to see what to expect
