Hello all

[29th mp]

Hi All, my name is andy thankyou for allowing me to become part of this brilliant forum there are some realy talented members here , i live in south wales and collect 1/6th figures and have some 1/6th vehicles including 2 brit jeeps and a german kubelwagon i have close to 300 figures nearly half are vintage action men and marx knights and cowboys , also im a member of a ww2 reinactment group here in s/wales we do mainly us 29th inf and mp i acctually met some of the members here at cricklade railway back in the summer and bought a stug3 at the display tent ,

i started getting interested in 1/16th tanks about 18 months ago bought a heng long tiger , panzer 3 & 4 but sold them on to get some newer bits , i have a motarro king tiger , HL jagdpanther & stug3 and have just bought a mato sherman from canada i couldnt wait any longer for them to get here and the £ was haveing a good day against the $ that day so it wasnt overly expensive just hope the postman dont get stuck in the snow too much i would like to get it before the end of jan

anyway thats me i will post some pic's of me tanks as soon as i figure out how to do it

cheers andy

Welcome to the forum 29th mp, It was a good show at cricklade didn't we get you to pose with the tanks at the end ?

I am waiting for my Sherman to arrive as well according to the tracking no. its arrived at heathrow so just customs and the weather to stop me getting mine soon

looking forward to the pics of your tanks (we like pics here)

Cheers Ian

Hi Andy,
Welcome to the forum! Nice to see you've jumped in the deep end! I've started to get into 1/6 figures as well. I only have 2 at the moment, but i've got more planned. I've done 2 101st paratroopers, one in pre-jump gear. I just bought a parachute and want to try doing one in mid-jump. I'd love to see pics of your WWII figures.

If you need any help with your tanks everyone on here will be glad to help.
Cheers,
Rik
