Any photos of the award winners, Mike? Either way, congrats on the wins.

Looking awesome, Jeroen. I like what I see.

Happy B-Day, indeed!!!

Happy B-Day!!!

Yep, Harv was pretty cool. I stayed in touch a bit on facelook, but hadn't heard this news yet. Darn shame.

Oops, I forgot to add a Katyusha to my list, which would be awesome to see.

Whoa, still too rich for me, which is probably just as well.

Thanks, Kev.

He certainly did liven up the place. I recall being saddened by his loss.

And here we go. Panzerwerfer 42, 37mm Flak 43, JS-2, JSU-152, 105mm Wespe, 20mm Flak 38 (single and quad), 88mm Flak gun, V-2 (with "accurate" launch turntable), sFH 18, German half-track with 20mm Flak 38, 155mm Long Tom, M40 SPG, M41 Walker Bulldog

I have list of 1:16 stuff I'd like to see. I sent a smaller list to Andy, and they said they were glad to have it, as it can make a difference in future kit choices.

Yet another Schiffer book added to the stash. Given the eventual release of these two kits, I thought it best to beef up my references on these machines. I've said it before but I'll say it again, this series is well worth every penny.

I'll have to get the Pak 40.

Some cool weapons there. Thanks, Kev.

It's my dream to have a cherry NGC Carson City Morgan.

I'm finding out the hard way that NGC, while cool as heck, won't be cheap for getting an individual coin graded. I recently discovered a brand new 2007W US mint silver eagle proof in the original box, that belonged to my sister. NGC charged me $40 to join so I could actually submit the coin, it'll cost a few bucks to ship it to them, then $20 for the actual grading, then another $20+ to ship it back to me (insured). The whole point though, is not just so have a silver eagle proof, but the specific coin that belonged to my sister, so I'm really looking forward to getting that back from NGC. If you intend to follow though with grading, sending 8 or ten at a time is preferred, so I may slip in some others as the return charge will be the same, though the $20 per coin grading charge will still be applicable.

In keeping with my recent 1:16 obsession, I finally sprung for this kit (again). Had one once, sold it, and have regretted that for years now. This one will not be sold off.

I like that Ju 88 book. I just can't to keep up with all of the books I eventually want to grab.

That windshield is just way wrong, Ray.

Pretty awesome stuff. Congratulations, Pete.

Assuming I run across any more cool old stuff, I'll most certainly keep you in mind, Ray.

I'm sure it will be a beautiful kit, but I'll still need to think on whether I really want one or not.

The 3 cent piece (nickel) that I just sold. All things considered it was pretty rough, so I'll eventually grab a higher grade version that's NGC certified.

I have no idea, I never heard the name before.

I think I may already have that, Mike, but thanks for the suggestion.
