I think Mr. Witchhunter is second in line for the train.  He has to promise to paint it up the day he gets it though and post it for everyone to see!


just second? I thought I'm first  :twisted:

yes, I promise whatever you want! To paint, to post and to praise CompanyB too  :D  Now send me the piece  :mrgreen:

Richard from HLBS has been on to emphasize that this list is cast to order only, and will only be cast during May.  So get your orders in chaps

It's an austro-hungarian armored train Panzerzug II. But I guess nobody cares about it being not russian. I just ordered one.

I would have ruined myself with the armored cars if not for the scale. I own several in 1/48, and they won't work at all with HLBS ones.
