Very nice Duke and again I have to ask, but who makes the Sherman?

Interesting sign Duke. At the time no doubt the GI's had different ideas when encountering a German. Robin.

Tom, the Sherman is an old 1/32 model from 21st Century with a FOV commander in the hatch. I added some weathering myself to the tank.

Robin, I have a personal story (well from my grandfather) relating to this. My grandfather was a captain in Patton's 3rd Army (he passed away many years ago) and he was involved in the push into Germany. They went through several German towns that they had taken. One time, my grandfather was riding in a jeep with his driver into a German town and a lady came rushing up to the jeep and acting like she was in distress... she had a pocket book on her arm and as she was talking, reached into her purse quickly, being suspicious he grabbed the purse from her and there was a loaded small caliber pistol inside. I guess she was about to try and shoot him or someone, who knows.
 
Chaotic times Duke, with every man, woman & child carrying a weapon, it would make you very nervous to say the least. Robin.
 
Our new Volksgrenadier and Hitler Youth with bicycles are now in stock. We also decided to offer the bicycle as a separate item for those that want interesting accessories.

All the best,
Ken
 
Glad these are out and they llok very nice. Hopefully the Schwimwagen won't be far behind!
 
A more recent image of the 88mm flak. As you might guess we are a little behind after moving the business over 400 miles, but it is coming.
