What the postman brought today (Armorama)

Planning to get one of those too.
Still… I think it’s too big.
And with more than 150 kits in stash waiting to be built…it might take some time before getting that 16 wheeler

Still, it’s rewarding to plan and execute a “mega build” every couple of years.

Well, we used to have fire extinguishers (the old BCF type) on our tanks. Not going to help much if the load out goes up either.

But they’re carried to neutralise localised fires, like in the cab or engine compartment, not towering conflagarations.

It’s the thought that counts …

When you get around to wanting to buy it, it might just be too late …

You’re right - Cold War missile fans don’t want for too much, well, we could do with some more NATO stuff at the Tactical level, but at Theatre level I still yearn for one of these:

SS-20 (4)

Murky pic chosen deliberately - just so atmospheric I feel; SS-20 of course, and the natural tie-in if you like, with the Pershing and GLCM.

Nothing to do with “What the Postman brought” of course, but one day, one day…

It’s astonishing how many different kits Trumpeter has. If it’s Russian and it’s got 8 wheels, Trumpeter makes a kit of it.

You are correct about Trumpeter, except for the Maz crane mount! I know there is a resin conversion, but I would love on in styrene.

And that Topol in 1/35 is just begging me to get one.

Pulled the trigger on these. CH-54A definitely made me go broke…

Darn, Spruebrothers. I got suckered into their “lightening deals”, again…

“lightening” in this context means that Sprue Brothers are lightening your wallet :grin: :rofl:

Wow that made me do a double take

Nice haul. Built the A1 without the blade and the A3 with. The A3 with was a very enjoyable build so the A1 with blade should also be good.

Well, i decided to count them … and I’m scared…
Just Russian Tanks, APC’s, Missile & Rocket Launchers, AA, Tank Transporters, SCUD’s, … I counted 166 kits.

German WW2… 61 kits,
Modern US… 25 kits, around 185 Aircrafts ( all scales ) and also 18 IDF APC/AFV & Tanks

That’s just the Stash of Plastic Mayem… waiting for bench time.
Those that are built so far, I can’t be sure but maybe between 150 to 160 kits, I’ll have to count them one of these days.
