Hi there.

Does anyone here have the skeletons from Monogram's ROMMEL'S ROD that they'd be willing to part with?

Thanks and cheers from Peter
 
Actually, I may.

I had that kid as a kid, but remembered it differently than what it was. As a kid I painted the skeletons, didn't like the results and stuck them in a mayo jar filled with turpentine. In te morning, I went to check on them only to find an empty jar, then promptly chased down my brothers to accuse them of stealing the skeletons which of course were now just a residue settled on the bottom of the jar.

For the life of me, I couldn't remember the kit until I cam across it on the boards one day and found it as a re release. I immediately grabbed one, but it didn't hold up to my memory or expectations. I have it somewhere, if I ever build it, I doubt I'll use the kit skeletons.

Just to show what an impression that kit made on me as a kid, here's some recent stuff I've done in 1/16:
