Isn't it awesome when you get something like this? I mean more than that, I mean - after a while of collecting you can get a sort of lull. A burn out. You've got 99% of what you set out to get. Nothin new has come in for a few months, or years, and you start to wonder why you do it. You struggle to get excited any more.

And then BOOM - you get something like this beauty in your post!! And BOOM - you remember! Why you collect, the thrill of can give.

i couldn't of put it any better really, i had all but given up as it stands on reaching my targets then suddenly it appears and the fire ignites once more, i can now consider the carded collection complete series 1 to 3, i still need 3 German mocs and a few boxed and of course the last 2 boxed from the uk run there is still things out there to find, i would still like a desert rat proto if i can and a muton proto as the two types i don't at least have one for.

getting the second minesweeper has reminded me that it isn't over quite yet.
