I wasn't bored, I was thoughtful! Besides, I was tired of your troops getting decimated in the VSF Arms Race.....ok, not really heavy armament here, but, as they say in the desert frontier of Barsoom "You can get more from a stranger with a kind word and a pointy stick, than just with a kind word!"

It's a great looking model. That extra bit from the Bandai kit makes all of the difference on the original RAFM kit.

As long as it can keep out of the way of Sterling Moose's spar torpedo armed three wheelers, the Maxim gun will be just fine! ;)

That's a great little model with a very original structure.
Below is a link to my blog. It's the place where I write uninteresting things about little toy soldiers. I do this because I refuse to grow up and behave like an adult.

What a marvelous group you must have up there!

Now, James, you must start talking long-winded drivel for as long as you can, and see if you can't bore a 'nef or five out of him  lol

Viper4Dan: Just teasing, of course. Well done!

I know the feeling TOO well: a fellow was going to drive down about fifty miles this evening for a game of Full Thrust, of which I've oft whined about the lack of play. Sterling chap had to hear 'thanks but no...' as I've the filial piety duty.

I shall go gnash teeth, now.

Tragedy! My Mrs. is of the opinion that if my far flung friends are available to come and play then it's Game night in the basement.

She can always have me for a canoodle in front of the television any other night. :D
