Normandy bocage

there were specific tactics used in in the bocage. Engineers would blow a hole in the hedge, then the tank would move into the hole, only enough to use its guns all sides, trying to wipeout machin, only then did the infantry move in to clear the field. In that tactic there is no reason for infantry ...

the bridge

Hi Winky, I bet you already tried this already, but I bet there is a museum in Arnhem, may even have a site, if they do, I bet they will know English also. I now I forget the power of the net, even after using it for years. good luck, its a project worth doing it right. Darrell

a bridge too far

hi Winky, haven't seen you around lately, I haven't been around either. I'm sure you have a copy of the movie "A Bridge Too Far." The movie was filmed on the actual bridge. There are several good pictures on the movie that might show the lines. I think that may help. I didn't check it myself, I know...

it's to bad that your tank had a broken gun, I know that I would be bummed. On of the problems with mailing, some times things get broke, I've had that happened to me. Still 21st is a lot better that FOV. I always have to fix things, right out of the box. Why send to back, if your just going to get ...

47 - 262

The picture is a Me 262, sorry guys. I think 21st is sending out a P47, by that picture aint it. A P 47 has a radial engine, a big, blocky thing. The photo has the some what pointy noise. The 262 has the bubble cockpit like the 47. I think we'll get the P47, but that isn't it. If I'm wrong, that wou...

Very good new in 1/32 land. P47 is one of the great tank busters ever. The FW 190 will be great with all the 109s around. Now is we would only get the Stukas flying,,,

So much going on, so cool

21st 1/32

It is so cool to see the 1/18 items comming. Anything new on the 1/32. The 88 and jagerpanther are very nice, maybe the 1 1/2 truck in 1/32??
I'm sure that what ever shows up will be great. It is nice to see the company doing well. I thought they were going down a couple years ago.

I'm glad to see you starting into the collecting. It isn't all that expenseive, given some collections. I like both, both have their good and bad parts. If you are into collecting toys, 21st is the better on the two. If you are into modeling, the FOV is the better. I have found the the 21st is 1/2 t...

Several months ago some one said something about a all new big set. I hope that some of the things you guys are hoping for. As to the older stuff, they didn't make very many of some things. The PaK 40 has always been scarce, and the first wave of the 1/2track 250 had a 3 man crew, I wish I had that ...

I don't mind about getting a couple russians, that is one of the things that many of us. We have a lot of germans and US, some Brits, so its nice to have some good guys for the FOV T34/85. I hope the two guys are just the start of some russian troops.

BBI had a WW II 1?32 set several years ago. I bet that is what Brovo 26 also mentioned. That set was very poor quality.
