Hey, this is a thread for all the 1:18 goodness you got for Christmas.

I'll start it off, I got an Eastern camo 21st Tiger Tank, six Dragon German East Prussia figs, and six Dragon 101st Airborne figs. Yay.

I really hauled more in the way of 1:72 and 1:48 diecast items rather than 1:18 this year... a bit different than the old says, but still cool :wink:

:cry: Sad to say that I received no 1/18 stuff because she (my wife) says I already have one of everything (its true). But I got a cool tactical vest to go with my BoB Kit. :wink:

No 1/18 for me, or any scale for that matter.

I treat myself just fine the rest of the year though. :lol:

The sign of a great model is that one’s eye is not drawn to any one feature, yet one can study it for hours and continually find something new.

For Christmas, I got 2 1:200 die cast Swissair vintage plane from my family, to complete a specific coollection of these expensive toys. But I bought for myself on eBay the 2nd version of the BBI Apache, with shark "nose" and its very nice to have 2 different modells of the same type! I've really had a happy Christhmas, the BBI AH-64 arrived nearly on time!

My own Xmas money went toward some recent really great purchases on the BST forum:

- My third Razorback P-47 (and I never thought I'd get even one!)
- A second green Zero
- THREE (!) Stukas (bringing my total to four; one - desert - to stay in the box for now and one fairly beat up one held in anticipation of a reissue of Pickle's late-model Stuka parts)
- My first Indy staff car
- My first Minichamps Kubelwagen

Thanks to the forum members who made that possible!

So no one got any PTE? You missed out on some neat stuff! I got the bunker, small building, jeep & trailer, a couple sets from JCP, the Chinese tank, the other armor vehicle and the latest two 6 man FOV sets from Target. A very good 1:18 Christmas Haul!! :D

I bought myself some 1/18 diorama supplies, and several 21st D-Day paratroopers for customizing.
I looked at the trap, Ray.

I got the 6 "new" FOV Recon Team guys. They'll go great with my BBI LAV and the older FOV Marines I already have.

I love that BBI LAV. I have two of them. I painted one black, and put some Cobra stickers on it. It's really one of my favorite pieces of 1/18 armor.

I did... I got a bunker, and a Jeep w/Trailer, which I only wanted the trailer ultimately.

I now have 2 bunkers and they're really cool in a team like that. The trailer rocks, but it's a shame it doesn't come by itself so you could snag them for less. Oh well, such is life right?

Dude, you have to help me! I'm willing to go low here, haha. You know how I get with PTE stuff, haha.
