I found a website , oldmodels.com, that carries several of the plastic models that many of us built as kids. Under the maker Tamiya there are several models of WWII tanks, anti-tank guns and personell. I especially liked the Russian and German tanks. There are a couple of Pak 40's also.
Knowing the intrest many members have in WWII I thought I would pass this along.

I grew up with 1/72nd scale airfix models in the UK [70s]... I won a war-comic [popular in UK back then] contest once and got a huge 54mm scale Spitfire kit from them!!! I wonder how much mega bucks it'd be worth today if I left it in box. ohmy.gif

lol-apparently not- I thought one of several war pulp ones I picked up every weekend was 'Victory' or something similar - I can't find it on google. If Cross was around he'd know most likely. The funny comics I'd also get Beano and Buster show on google though.
