Good stuff there. Nice to see another Easy Model fan.

I'm currently reading a bio on Abrams, the decals on Thunderbolt V11 are incorrect.
Should show a puffy cloud with 2 red lightning bolts running from 1:00 to 7:00 and the Thunderbolt V11 to the left of the cloud.
I wanted this one, but now I don't know. Does anyone else make one?

Thanks for posting the pictures. That is the first decent close up shot of an Easy Model MiG-3 I have seen.

The customized M113 is nice, but you wouldn't be able to get away with that pin-up nowadays.

Most of the above through WWII Attic, The Motor Pool and the Monkey Depot (holy crap was that a great sale they had or what?!). I finally bit the bullet and I ordered some 1:72 Hobby Master... the Bf 110 should be awesome, but I really want to see how the M10 and Achilles turned out.

I have the 4 Can.Do "Tiger Aces, Normandy 1944" guys sitting on a King Tiger right now - can't pose them with a Tiger I because the FoV version driver and radioman's hatches don't open.

UPS man should be bringing me my 38(t) family from WWII Attic in an hour

[ChairmanMilo]

Just ordered the Hobby Master 1:72 Avenger and Dragon Armor 1:72 Maus V1 from the Monkey Depot. Couldn't pass them up considering how cheap they were... getting a top-of-the-line HM release like the Avenger for less than $20 is a hell of a bargain!

The 38(t) family finally arrived a few hours ago... if I have time to take pictures of my new arrangement this weekend, I'll post 'em for you all The King Tiger looks great with the Can.Do panzer aces!

Here's my first photo update for ages!

First, the pride of my collection - my two Corgi "Buzz" Beurling Spitfires (WB99630 and AA31814) with my recently arrived Hobby Master P-39 Airacobra I (HA1703):



You can't see from the above picture that I've cleared plenty of room on the top of that shelf for my Corgi Bader Hurricane & Spitfire (AA32004 & AA49002 respectively) as well as my Corgi McKnight Hurricane (AA32008) and whatever other RAF hardware will fit up there. There's a medium-sized Union Jack hanging on the wall above it.

Next photo!

Luftwaffe hardware, for which there is a lot of room left on the shelf for other incoming planes. Displayed are a Corgi Stuka (WB99621), Hobby Master Stuka (HA0101), Corgi Ju 88 (AA36703), two Dragon Wings Me 262s (DRW50243 and DRW50186) and my favourite of them all - my brand new Hobby Master Bf 110 (HA1801):



Close-up of my new Bf 110, which turned out to be a flawless specimen save the fact that one of the vertical stabilizers fell off when I was setting it up for display (easily fixed with some white glue):



Here are my four new Dragon Can.Do "Tiger Aces" (CAN20034A-D) set up with my Forces of Valor King Tiger (80401):



Here are my four Dragon Can.Do "Panzer Grenadiers, Kharkov 1943 (CAN20078A-D):



My brand new 21st Century Toys Marder IIIM, Marder IIIH and Hetzer (99413-S1, 99412-S1 and 99415-S1 respectively):

[Cruver Collecter]

Great selection of models, and makes for a sharp looking display.
