Nice

I had heard they were coming sometime next year. Its too bad they weren't just a little bigger but they will work great for diorama displays. Depending on the cost I may pick some up.

boxes

I keep all my armour boxes....tanks, trucks etc. I throw away all airplane and helicopter boxes. There are just too many to keep them all. But going through several moves it is really nice to have them believe me.
