LSP_Ron Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 Walking in the mall and walked by this. Bought it. Not sure why as I likely will never build it but I used to see the real one in Heathrow and Dubai all the time. It is 40 inches long when done. I really have no place for it.

Juggernut Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 (edited) I was trying to figure out how to turn it around...but that's not happening. Still cool though and I can think of several drinks that would fit nicely in a pictcher. No, I'm not an alcoholic but my Grandson was 100 days old last weekend and it was a good birthday party.

P Even better if you put it on the mantle and turn it around prior to trips so that the Missus knows your sked… europapete, Pete Fleischmann, BloorwestSiR and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coogrfan Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 The mailman delivered this yesterday. At barely 7" long it is far and away the smallest LSP I've ever seen. scvrobeson, Fanes, Trak-Tor and 8 others 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thierry laurent Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 Surely not the cup of tea of most LSP members but for the ones who also like AFVs, I had at last the opportunity to get the new edition of the Son of Sherman in 2 volumes! This limited edition is a pure treadhead delight!!! Far from cheap but each edition was noticeably thicker than the prior one and we get now 942 pages of perfect historical, technical and modelling reference about the Sherman tank. I don't think they will go further as the crazy thing is the fact this thick and heavy reference only focuses on the US tank versions whereas the Sherman derivatives and the foreign use and versions are simply not covered. Alas, I'm afraid the already expensive price will explode in some months to reach unattainable summits... Highly recommended while still available. coogrfan, John1, LSP_K2 and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_Mike Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 Nice find Thierry. I have largely departed 1/35 armor, but found an original Italeri M4a1 76(W) for 10$ US. Digging around, I found my original MMIR "Guide to the Sherman." dutik, Uncarina and thierry laurent 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
