I know I'm not going to need 8 M79 or 6 M60... But that's not going to stop me from going to the wall with the range ;)

I'm waiting for the next lot of sculpts to hit Australia before diving in. Got to space out the expenditure to keep the Minister for War and Finance happy!

You poor sod! In the Vietnam era that would be Malcolm Fraser as your Minister for the Army and Billy McMahon as Treasurer. As I see it,you have two choices. Get their ears pinned back and learn to answer to Sonyaaaaaah or do a Harry Holt and bugger off in a Chinese submarine.  I’d be searching Ali Express for the sub if I were you.  :D

Still, as Mal said:  “Life wasn’t meant to be easy”.
Em dezembro de '81
Botou os ingleses na roda
3 a 0 no Liverpool
Ficou marcado na história
E no Rio não tem outro igual
Só o Flamengo é campeão mundial
E agora seu povo
Pede o mundo de novo

I promised my “social events secretary” no new periods but I think I can safely classify Vietnam as “Moderns”  :)  Well, it is post WW2? That’s Modern isn’t it?

Until we reach the long promised point where each of us has a jet backpack and a flying car I shall continue to regard the late 20th C as being the modern age.
