Hi Fred -
The Winter Panther's are on the way! We expect ours by tomorrow. Other dealers will be getting theirs probably by the end of the week or so.
I can hear the invasion beginning ...

Thanks Peter
Apparently they didn't end up on that "slow boat" from Buenos Aires after all, thank goodness!
By the way, do they come with a bag of Cruz de Malta pictured on table and what is Cruz de Malta anyway?

Fred,
Cruz de Malta is a brand of yerba mate, which we use to drink mate over here. It's a little stronger than tea, and softer than coffee.

Fred-
I think you were looking at the poster and came across that bag by accident.
There's something a little odd about the girl in that poster, I can't quite "put my finger on it!"

Our advance scouts report Winter Panther sightings in the great Rochester area. We suspect they will me moving to take Eyota before noon. We do not have sufficient armor to stop the onslaught.
Once they have taken the transportation hub of Eyota, they will be transported all over the country.
Resistance is futile...

Hey Peter, did those winter panther find their way to Eyota, how do they look and when will they spread out over the country side?

I regret to inform you that Peter is no longer in charge here. He and his puny resistance were quickly swept away by our mighty Winter Panther onslaught - though the elusive Shannon continues to lead a band of rebels on the outskirts of Eyota.
We had been informed that Minnesota was the land of snow and ice, which is why we brought the winter version of our tanks. To our dismay this land is green! The camouflage is not doing the trick, though seeing those beautiful panthers in attack formation makes my heart swell with pride. Shannon has disabled several of our lovely tanks in the skirmishes. I can only hope that a bergepanther will be here soon to recover them before Shannon can re-equip them and use them against us.
If we do not receive snow soon, we may have to call on our old friend Barkmann with his summer camo to relieve us.
The invasion has just begun. We have sent individual panthers on raids throughout the country already. As many were dispatched yesterday, we expect them to be arriving in position shortly. World domination is next.

I assume this means you have ordered one. If so, would be interested in your assessment when it arrives. Particularly of the figures.

Yes, that's correct. I sort of did it on impulse. Not a good way to spend money but at least I didn't buy a car Regarding the figures, it's probably to the good that HB didn't copy K & C. After all, everyone should have their own style. But I'll let you know definitely when I get it. It's scheduled to arrive Tuesday.

Unfortunately, I have to do that too
That's on top of a bunch of other repairs and home improvements, which guaranteed that I couldn't go to Chicago

Mine too. Treefrog got these out in record speed, but it seems to take a long time for UPS to deliver from MN to the east coast - almost 6 days!

I'm marking next Tuesday on my calendar as I am looking forward to a very fair and very balanced opinion on the HB winter panther from Brad. Com'on Brad we know you can do it, remember; fair and balanced!
Fred
P.S. Brad, I'm only teasing you, so please don't get your undies in a knot.
