Got a 40th explorer, 6 Nude figures to dress up in an Africa Korps, German Staff Officer, Commando, Jungle Explorer and RNLI and a tank commander. Some of these uniforms are a mix of VAm and 40th just to get them complete. And the new cabinet on Friday too, what a cracking week it's going to be!
When confronted by a difficult problem you can solve it more easily by reducing it to the question. How would the Lone Ranger handle this?

Will do mate. Early Friday evening for the showing (if Argos deliver close to midday that is).

My mum is excited too, she was looking through the Alan Hall books with me this afternoon.

My Bro had a massive amount of AF stuff (Shad stuff galore) delivered today as well so watch ebay for that

it's the right time to sell shadow stuff, the prices on ebay are outrageous.

Just about to start working that out. I have a few more 40th to get. One thing I am looking for is the para smock I have the plastic Red Beret and need to get a repro badge for it.

My MP hat was missing a badge, they are rarer than rocking horse sh*t. I got a spare MP jacket and just pulled the lapel badge off and used that. Bit smaller but looks better than nothing and nearly as good as the real deal. Can't do that with a Para jacket tho.

I'll keep my eyes open for a para jacket for you.
