I might as well throw this in as well, I was'nt going to at first:....You would be surprised of the # of women that really think this stuff is neat....I met this lady at W-M recently in the toy isle and she had her son with her and she was eye-balling this 32x Me 109 Yel.,nosed -> one. I walked up & said, is this actually for you or your son ? She said,"Oh no","this is for me"! She said, "man" this is really neat", I collect this stuff too ! I said follow me and i'll show you some other stuff,I took her where they put the tanks. I left her standing there mesmerized by a 32x.,Pnzr.III Desert dusted.......I had this chick live with me last year,and one day she said,"when we gonna' play tanks"? of course I had other things on my mind at the time.....another time, she said,"I wanna'paint too". This girlfriend actually left me,because she thought I loved my toys more than her......."She was right" !

I agree on the women subject. I had a bunch of my 32x planes and tanks (as well as a few 1:18 pieces) in my apartment room while I was at UCLA over the last couple of years. The girls always thought they were cool, which surprised me. One, upon coming into my room for the first time, said something along the lines of "Oh, cool! You build models! I used to build model cars and planes!" I nearly fainted with joy...
