My Stash just grew again (2009)

[Sauragnmon]

Postman came today, with a JAG Long Beach.  Mmmmmmm Long Beach.  Of course, she goes on the shelf, as I have other stuff on the table, and she needs a few donors and other parts in order to be the bad bad girl I want her to be.  So bad.  So good.  Alll delicious.  Next stop, I gotta gets me some Flyhawk PE and a Burke and then some "replacement" parts.


Well, One could reason that the closer you get in the South, the closer some might mistake the accent, potentially, for Austrian, or some of the other sharper, angrier accents potentially.  I always found I like the Prussian accent, though just about Any German accent from the right Fraulein in the right timing, well... who knows.

Bloody hell, Overkiller - that's a serious haul! And a good chunk of it resin. I shudder to think how much that little lot cost....


Chris - are you looking for any specific Soviet weapons? If it's bombs/AGMs you're after, I have a load from a Revell (Dragon) Fencer you can have...

Cheers they will do nicely, I am after anything soviet and 1/72nd scale weapon wise, especially air to ground ordnance.
Is there any thing that you are in need of??
Cheers,
Chris.
