Hi to all, this is on behalf of my father and I. We started witha Heng Long Tiger 1 in grey, and have now progressed to:

King Tiger *Porsche* turret, King Tiger *Henschel* turret, Jagd Tiger, Morser Tiger, Tiger 1 in grey, Tiger 1 in dunkelgelb, Panther, Jagd Panther, Panzer Iv F3, Panzer IV F1, Panzer III Grey, Panzer III Dunkelgelb, Panzer III Tauchpanzer, Walker Bulldog, Pershing, Sherman 105mm and Mattoro Sherman.

Non motorised the Hobbyboss(?) Tiger
Willys Jeep
Willys Jeep with rocket launchers
Sherman

1/18 88 x 3, one grey two dunkelgelb, two Harley Davidson cycles, and a Polistil BMW with sidecar (maybe 1/15?)

All are more or less out of the box, we just droo; when we see some of your work that is converted/detailed.

Welcome to the forum boys,

You guys got quite the collection, maybe when you got some time you can post some pics of your collection. Enjoy...

Hello shooter & dad.
Welcome to the forum.
That's a mighty impressive collection you have there.
Do you invite the neighbours round for battles?
Cheers

shooter0124 welcome.

Learn something new everyday. Just google Morser Tiger to figure out what it is, and bing doesn't even know what Hachette Tiger is. Can you enlighten me ?

Thankyou for taking the time to write to us.
To Red Devils, I will try to get some images put on this (but I am a novice so it may not work). Fingers crossed.
To Lister, no, we don't invite them for battles yet, but my dad keeps on about doing something like it. We were in a local boat club, but there were only two others with tanks and nothing happened.
To MichaelC, I may have got it wrong as I was so excited at figuring out how to get onto the forum! The Morser Tiger I think should be called the SturmTiger (sorry it's listening to my old man that does it), the one that (in real life only, unfortunately) fired the big rockets. By Hachette Tiger I mean the late version Tiger 1 that is a partwork issued in the UK by Hachette. It was 140 issues, and has only recently finished. I know some people criticise it as expensive, but I think it is good (although I am a long way from finishing it). I am a bit curious to see if anybody knows if it is based on the Forces of Valour 1/16th Tiger 1?

I hope these ramblings are of help.

Thanks shooter....... I managed to google Morser Tiger but Hachette Tiger did throw me for a loop. I have heard about this. Wouldn't have the patience to wait 140 weeks (I hope it is weekly......) to build a tank, although it would force you to take the time and effort for each piece.

With a fleet like that you don't need neighbours. Just fight it out between you and your old man !
