Hello everybody, been lurking for a while so I've bitten the bullet and registered.
I was into 1/6 for many years but in the last few months I have been collecting 1/18. Modern and WWII armor and figures. 21st, BBI and FOV.
Being "Down Under" (Australia) my main option for collecting is evilBay. I will wait out my 6 months and maybe use the BST section of the forum.
Fave modern piece = BBI's Desert Patrol Buggy.
Fave WWII = 21st's Tri-color Tiger mmm!.

Good to have another Aussie on the board! They're must be a few of us now, not bad for a country with very little XD. Welcome!

Thanks man :D They were fun collecting but the prices for them got out of hand. I remeber buying junk helmets for about $125 - $200. Now those same junk helmets are in the $300-$450 range. :shock:
