do you mean, have i seen it? or have i seen one lately?

i have one, I almost over looked it in the stores because I thought i was the E. front one, until i realized that unimax had once again, taken a highly distinguishable and unique action scene, in this case the wounded German being supported by his squaddy while pointing to the sniper, meanwhile troops in the hanomag point towards the threat and aim mg at target as well.

Same as the E.font one. So they just took the E.front hanomag , hit it with some different camo gave it another base plate and said Ta Dah collectible!
Its one thing to have the same guy in every tank turret, but to have the same action scene (very well sculpted too) repeated in another camo scheme just to make the collection bigger is silly. I have to keep them separate because well, they are doing the same damn thing on both plates.

so yeah...uh... I uh....bought one anyway

Yes, Cabe this is the one I was wondering about; haven't seen it around, but it is retired.

I stumbled on it it about 10 months ago at DOBs diecast, I had overlooked it for weeks and I had Dob on the phone doing orders and he went down list of what he had, and hen we go the that one it confused the heck outta me. Because I am asking him to describe it and I am looking at my E front one and asking him over ad over "You sure it says Normandy on it?"

Do you thinks he still has one?

he gets shipments of very rare OOP products from FoV. I bought all my kings tigers in one purchase from him. I would say over 2/3 of my collection was bought through him. He has the hard to find stuff . I would call him and ask, but he might hunt one down for you. His stock is always up to date even if the text next to it isn't (like coming in May 07)
I guess he doesn't sell out of the rare stuff because people think all he sells is airplanes and his page doesn't show up in a FoV search. I cannot remember how I found him, but between his stock, low prices and willingness to chat on the phone and check his stock he is definitely my favorite seller. Especially for me when he is 3 hours down the interstate in Austin.

here is a link to the FoV section
