And you think you have a backlog??

Post by wibblywobbly »

You know the feeling, shelves full of unfinished models, boxes of bits, they have been sat there for months, if not years. Take heart, things could be worse, you could be in charge of renovating tanks at Bovington..... :D

Management's biggest nightmare: "Yeah, we need the one in the back".
What, me worry?

:O ....for a moment I thought that these were scale models in your garden workshop! This does prompt the question though: 'How many, (1/16 models, that is) is TOO many??' I see Tomhugil sporting well in excess
of twenty in his ever expanding signature section; Brian (Brizo..) admits to more than thirty. Come on 'fess up...who's got the biggest collection of 1/16 models (complete and incomplete)? :lolno: and- bearing in mind Bovington's woes, as per the thread, where on Earth do you keep them all? I have only seven complete and 2 half completed models, and I'm already beginning to get invitations to appear on addicted hoarders reality TV' shows :haha: :haha:

Don't think so. Not sure the unit on the rear deck is a turret either. Assuming it's the back & they didn't have big hatches in the front.....

Hi No Tom hasn't got enough ,he has just bought a new house with a man cave, he has some work to do on the man cave to knock it into shape, insulate it work bench and storage shelves to fit as well as electrics . then he should have a bit more room. He might need a bigger car to move them all LOL.

regards pete


PS No doubt the boss will have a big list of stuff to do before he can do the man cave

I was looking at the small round cupola on the top of the main turret and the shape of the front turret, looks very like the IJA prototype or the type 91. Really need a better view of the rear of the tank to tell.

My collection is fairly paltry compared to some, Robert McGuire must have one of the bigger ones

Despite the new man cave my tanks have to share the space with my boat and submarine collection so fitting them in could be a struggle! Also there's no more letters allowed in my signature!
