Thanks to Jackalope, It was he who turned me onto the Model Warehouse site and their great collection of Dragon figures. To try them out, I had ordered a Panzer Grenadier and it arrived last Saturday. Swift and safe service, I am happy to report. I had time today to take him out and kit him up and take a few photos before adding him to the Pak 40 crew. Simply put, Dragon figures are some of the best out there as far as stock figures go. Thanks again, Jack! Pics:

I got a chuckle out of this as I am usually leary in the beginning of any brand new site.

Painless this is sweet....... Unfortunately for me "International" shipping was too much. I order 4 figures and the Dragon TOW which came to $28 USD (!!!) but when I check out the shipping cost was $38 USD so that was the end of that order......

The longest undefended border in the world and we are still "International".

BTW, what is the camo canvas ? Also USPS will accept "Painless Black Wolf" as a person on a mailing address ?

Michael,
I completely agree. Shipping is crazy between the US and Canada for no good reason that I can see. I would buy from Mato Mart more often but the shipping is penurious to say the least unless they are advertising it as free for a sale. The camo canvas is a scale poncho. I was really pleased and left it folded up and safe from wear for the time being. Painless Black Wolf is my name. *chuckles* It's translated out of the Norwegian and is an old family name.
regards,
Painless

Good Morning! I need to visit there. As I gather up the years, it becomes more of a priority. ;o)

The Diorama stuff continues to slide onto the radar, eventually showing up in the Dining room in neat cardboard parcels of Fun! More 1:18 kit! The Halftrack is a Flea Market find from Saturday and the Flak 36 is the result of a nail biter between a Merit kit and this one on EvilBay. Half price for the Track' and weathering and some small paint touchups for the Flak won the day. Pics:

Very nice Painless...... I didn't know the engineering one comes with a 37mm ! Sweet. Let us know if it has many moving parts like recoil and stuff.
