    “grim reaper”

    Apart from the particulars, offering iconic types like the Mustang or Spitfire strikes me as something of a risky proposition for a manufacturer. I suggest that because collectors have been looking at models, book and movie images, not to mention the real thing, for their entire lives. We've got...

    German Airfield Vignette with the new BF-109

    Was surfing for 109 E-4 pics and came across photos of a very nice restoration: Just amazing the history of this particular airframe: https://aircombatcentral.com/planes/marseilles-bf-109-e-4/ _________________ Sent from NAMC terminal

    German Airfield Vignette with the new BF-109

    Sorry, what I meant to state was that, IMO, the Jenkins' models are the best '109 and P-51 in 1/30 scale. _________________ Sent from NAMC terminal

    German Airfield Vignette with the new BF-109

    I agree with Tristan that the 109 is a better scale model than the P-51. For example, the surface detail on the former appears better rendered.

    COVID the 3rd

    Matt, The King's comments and the general tenor of the video clip don't mesh well with the data for Sweden, at least not when compared with the rest of Europe: https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/ European countries with the highest number of deaths for 12/17/20 are as follows: Germany...

    USAAF Bomber Pilot Standing with Cigarette

    Was packing the subject figure up for shipment this morning and realized that his cigarette was missing. When John mentioned that the fig shouldn't be standing next to a plane while smoking, it never occurred to me to check the pic and see if the set actually had a smoke in his hand. Have no...

    Shore Leave

    The set arrived today, and it's a dandy: Pictured above with "Rosie the Riveter" and "USMC Women's Reserve," "Shore Leave" really does strike me as being extraordinarily lifelike for figures cast in metal. Combined with selected figures from the JT&L Range, the lot would make for a nice...

    COVID the 3rd

    These are the latest numbers for Sweden: https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/sweden/ True, they've got a lot of cases. However, the country's 7-Day Average of Deaths/Day is 17 and declining. That's the equivalent of perhaps 500 in the USA. Sorry if my focus on numbers seems...

    Clash of Dragoons

    Chris, These are always great fun. I recall be fascinated by troops in formation as a kid, lines of rebels, yanks, and so on. Legos can make it happen! -Moe
