One of your nicest models costs $150, so what would one be for $800? A 'Supermodel'. But that $150 for what someone had build, painted and weathered, where as this is just essentially an overspray, great one, and a bit of remodelling. Fair enough the base model does cost more than the plastic...

Well said That Man, Agree with you totally, have the original one at $280, i am noticing this happening a lot, there are people that do this, buy a figure/vehicle, repaint it and mark it as 'Professional painted' and then think they can charge what is stupid money.

No Greater Slaughter by Michael Livingston About the Battle of Brunanburh in 937 The Battle that Created England. Fiction - the latest Mark Dawson, The Hanging Tree

Wonderful, as for the bayonet and shock and awe, I think Corporal Jones [from Dads Army] summed it best with his immortal line "They don't like it up em".

Helen of Troy - great looking figure, think John mentioned the Trojan War series was being stopped/paused and this was the final figure. Cannot relate to her, as she had a face that Launched a Thousand Ships. Whereas people have said of me, that I have a "Face for Radio". Useful figure for...

I can see one looking great in my AK dio with K & C stuff, not the StuH 42 Assault Howitzer, as not used in Tunis. A Monte Cassino dio is possible for me, using some AK Para with it and also the Sihk infantry from AK would work well.

Nice, a AFV i missed out on getting, but it is on my list.........

Picked up five new Jacobite sets, now have all the older Jacobite and Government sets, five French or mounted figures to get, then i will start on the new releases. The flagbearers look great as a group.

impressive

Great looking Spitfires, will they come in the same style box as the latest ME109 winter? Same question for the recently released Hurricanes? Cheers.

Not my area of interest, but good looking figures and would make a great little stand alone dio group. still freeky when they move.
