In anticipation of K&C's forthcoming MG releases, how about sharing some photos on this thread for the series!!!!!!

25TH September 1944, this formidable 68-ton tank with it's powerful 88mm gun, has not faired well in the confined spaces of Oosterbeek, coming to rest adjacent the local church.

Nothing compares to the joy and excitement I get in this hobby of ours whenever I see what fellow collectors do with our figures and, sometimes, fighting vehicles and aircraft...Great use and display of our Paras, Robin!

All the best,
Andy.
 
Thanks Guys and especially Andy who makes all this possible. While waiting for you guys to bring up your Para's, this is 23rd September near Arnhem. Robin.

Love the diorama-the church is museum quality and your set up really sets the whole scene up. I love the Arnhem series and you do it justice with your imagination and modeling skills, especially on the church and groundwork
