I buy things with the intention to build and paint them, however something else comes along and then my interest moves However Dave no way can I out do your hoarding skills you win hands down, add to that Lego Playmobil and what else you have

As for the steam tank I got it from a lad at work who was leaving for uni, he had no time for his hobby any more and wanted rid of it, no cost just gave me it nice lad however never had a use for it.

he just put in your lap for nothing??? boy are there still nice souls out there...

and i would love to see a comparrision shot as i proably could get the metal one... but that would be a true build then... whereas the plastic kit would be heavyly converted... no doubt about it

and i see why you get so much stuff and then don´t come to built/work with it... often i do this on my own too... if i had more money i would go ballistic^^

I think my FLGS still has a metal Steam Tank on the shelf Vik. I can pick it up for you if you want.

I'd have to see if it's still there, and how much it is. I would only charge what it cost me Vik, as always. However with Shipping, it may end up cheaper to find one there in Germany. I'll check next time I stop in. I would imagine your first prize box should be arriving shortly too

i thought like this too... i just wanted to see what your store charges... getting it to my place is kind of like dumb move then... the metal kit is on ebay often enough... about Landraider prices i say... and postage would be a killer...but you of all the peeps will know that so i just have to decide and then i can get it... actually that shouldn´t be a minutes search... as i said i stumbled on the steamtank quite often already...

and i do live with crossed fingers waiting for that care/winner package^^ i am quite sitting on edge^^
