Welcome from a fellow newbie. Can't wait to see pictures of your collection, especially if you have any Dragon Jagdpanthers, the Normandy Jagdpanther or the 21st Century one too!

I like that glass enclosed display cabinet, very nice. I have one similar to that but it's reached full capacity and I've been scouting yard sales for another suitable cabinet so I can start putting more of my stuff out on display.

Good Lord, man. Forum newbie maybe, but not a newbie at collecting! I haven't even found a decent display cabinet for mine yet - looks like you've been filling yours for quite some time!
By the way, is that the Forces of Valor 80026 Panther Ausf G (early)? Because the picture is fuzzy, I'm not 100% sure, but the mantlet may look like it's upside down - just like every other 80026 or 80226 I've seen. You can tell if the rain cover is underneath the gun sight aperture on the right side of the gun barrel instead of on the left side of the gun barrel where it should be.

Haha, yeah, I only noticed that when I read about it here somewhere. It was easy to fix and only took a little bit of filing to make the mantlet fit back into its mounting. Other than that, it's a fine looking Panther.

1. Welcome *newbie*.
2. Wow...nice collection.
3. Ikea has nice glass cabinets for about $60 or so. Four shelves, each one about a sq. foot, so it fits two tanks (1/32) easy, three if you push it.
4. It is a GREAT thing when your fav tank gets made by someone eh? For me it was the Grant. And after you have it your like, "if only they'd make a Calliope" or whatever you love next. Funny how the mind works.
