:sick: :sick: Savouring your enthusiasm and undisguised joy...but with undisguised envy :haha: Wow, that machine gun is really quite incredibly detailed, and so is the kit/ battledress on the tanker. But his face is really scary, as if it was transplanted from some crazed psychopathic gargoyle! With the exception of his ugly mug then, I'd give an arm and a leg for that lot (even my gammy leg :haha: :haha: ) ...as for the car crushing jape, well...that's priceless :D

Thanks very much Buddy, I know what you mean about his face lol very animated for sure. I think the head and hands are part of the GANGSTER collection ! I may change the head at some stage lol I am after a second crewman and I might be able to buy him from the guy who sold me the tank......need to build my funds up first :thumbup: Once the Tank is finished and painted I will be going to a few shows next year for sure........pleased you liked the tank crushing episode :crazy:

Cheers
