That bird is livin' on the edge!! Guessing the cat has had his dinner! I opened my issue of MMIR and saw the review on the Hauler stuff and knew you'd dig it!

That is totally cool. Geeze get a couple of newspaper reporters embedded with the troops and writing up the next story. What a great addition.

Cool little kit and a valuable/rare addition to any build/dio/vig !!!

I also found something especially for Ron , I'm a little confused as to why Ron never mentioned serving during WWII .

Disclaimer : This was ment to be a joke , I'll be here till Thursday , tip your bartenders and waitresses , .......... oh and try the veal , this was not a claim that Ron actually served in the German army during WWII .
