Small Scale Military Headquarters

Last Sunday my freind said he was going to Florida and his buddy had told him that " my soldiers " were on sale at 3/$10.00. We both took it for granted that he was talking about Walmart but now it makes sence that it's KB.

TRU in Paramus N.J. has the Titanium Series cargo truck both motorcycles,both planes, etc in stock. First time I've seen them. Bob

The picture of the Short Round figure reminds me of a Hobbit.

Just received my order from Smalljoes and highly recommend them. Fair price, quick service and nice emails. Real happy. Bob

The Target in Hackensack N.J. and the TRU on Rt. 4 in Paramus had nothing at all for indie today.

Picked up the artillery spotter and the wermacht rifleman at the TRU on Rt.4 in Paramus N.J. this morning.Looks like a split case with about 6 of each. Bob

The TRU on Rt.59 in Nanuet N.Y. had a whole case of Jackson and nothing else on Wednesday. Bob

About 3 years ago Walmart carried packs of 1/18 Nascar garage accs. that were very similar if not the same. They were being clearanced out at the time for about 3$. Bob

I used a 4" deep x 8" wide at the top very light plastic flower pot liner bought at the supermarket flower dept. for 50 cents. You get a very nice "drape" effect and the 4"depth leaves about 1" of loose chute so you don't see the bowl. Use a clear plastic push pin and you're all set. Kim...if you wa...

There was just a program on Discovery Channel about this type of ship. It is used to transport multi million dollar yachts across the ocean from one continent to another. It sinks itself and the cargo just floats in. Bob

The 105's in Viet Nam had shotgun shells filled with little steel arrows called fleschettes. The rouds were called beehives because they sounded like a swarm of bees going over head. Very effective for stopping human wave attacks, but very sloppy picking up the pieces in the morning. Bob

Just checked my loose figures and the Starwars Sentry uniform is real close to NVA uniform since a gun crew wouldn't have web gear on while manning the gun. Pretty close to the color too. The WWII Japanese heads are close but a litte thin for a real NVA. Different racial look altogether. Remember th...

I'll pick up 3 or 4 of each and trade legs and arms. That will make 2 squads. Just have to go to Mark at Build-A-Rama for the radio and medic equip.

TRU has a coupon good on any one item that starts today 8/26/07 thru 9/1/07.

Great service. Very pleased. Bob

Just picked one up for $12. Thanks for the great idea. Regards...Bob

Nothing at the two TRU in Paramus in North Jersey.

Thanks Echoes that picture reference was a big help. I couldn't figure out where the triangle parts went. Bob

Ordered 2 on the evening of the 5th and received the order today. Great service from Marauder, highly recommended. The cycles are on par size wise with the Miesto WWII Harleys. Had to take the legs off the guy in the sidecar at the knees. With a little work this will be a real nice piece especially ...

Hi guys; The complete Victory at Sea 1-26 3 disc set was at Walmart for $5.99. Bob

:D Hi guys; This has come up before on the board but I thought I'd refresh everyones memories. I put my extra Star Wars and military arms and accessories in small 2"x 5" zip-loc bags that I bought in a comic book shop many years ago. Works out great 'cause you can put many of these in a larger zip-l...

:( Went to the super Walmart in Monroe N.Y. this morning and they had plenty of BOB series 2, old 1/32 stugs. What suprised me was they had 8 brand new 1/18 P-51s. They were out of reach on the overheads. They weren't there last week. I don't do repaints so I didn't do any climbing to check them out...

The APC drivers are the worst figures in any line ever made. Not real happy with the LAV having totally weathered tires and a top that looks like it just went through the car wash. Play nice. Bob

All 21st needs on the Kuble is a 69 cent can of tan spray paint to get a DAK version that I'd be happy with. They already have the molds. Bob

http://www.calvin.edu/academic/cas/gpa/posters2.htm For 7thva_hunter there 11 pages of 1/18th scale WWII Nazi posters. Someone on GP posted this link about 4 years ago. Have fun. My want is some WWII African-American drivers and a Red Tail P-51 with pilot. When I was in Nam about 25 % of the troops ...
