Small Scale Military Headquarters

I was wondering if Grunt1 was still working on his 1/18 Higgins boat? There seemed to be a small following on it but info slowly stopped flowing. I haven't bought many customs but this is one I've always hoped would be made. I don't want to step on any toes but if Grunt1 has decided not to finish it...

What do you mean, an African or a European swallow?

My wife says she will no longer accept sorry because of my over use of it. Therefore I am not interested in adding any more to my collection in fear of getting stuck with it.

Hi Welcome
Hope you find this site fun and informative

I was visiting with my pastor today and he was telling me some of his life experiences. He was a grunt in "Nam" and was blown up by a boobytrap, not completely because he"s still alive Thank God. But more interestingly his family military history goes all the way back to WWI and his grandfather. Asi...

I've seen these at TRU and they have so much potential. It will be great to see what you can do with it. So far your detail is great. Wish I had the time to do one.

I have not seen any WWII figures since mid last year. Just modern at my locations in the middle states.

Yes thats true, I also got 20% more off with a mailer I had, so I got a camo Bradley (the only 1/18 they had in stock) still a great buy.

Heres another link from old days about Schleich products. I'm waiting for the delivery of the house and windmill and water tank. Scale not quite 1/18 but close enough for me.

Heres some funny stuff between Aferg and other members about Schleich donkeys in days gone past.

Plane and trailers are showing available in beginning of 4th quarter 2010. I agree plane will probably be the most underscale of the group but I've wanted a spotter plane for awhile so may get it anyway. I purchased the animal nursery on amazon.com for 111.00 w/free shipping. Thats about $40 cheaper...

A few other items that are new. Water trailer that may have military applications and foliage of various kinds especially the hedge rows.

They are close to 1...
