I have not given up on this.
Father's day is coming up and I usually make something for myself. This year I was going to work on my Sdkfz 251 again.
I did last father's day.

I think that I may just work on the little boy. :D :wink:

I'd be interested. All depends on the price estimate. Would take an unassembled bomb + trolley/dolly.

Hey Pickel, do you still have those 1:48 a-bombs of mine I lent you a while back for this project? No rush :wink:
