    Now I’m an old(ish) man, I’ve picked them up again, and I don’t worry what people think. Whatever makes you happy.

      Please don't let the fact that these are toys stop you showing your builds. They're no more toys than egg planes or 'what-ifs' and we've enjoyed many of both of those over here.

      Everything we do here will be considered toys by the vast majority of the population. Who cares? Family men buying tiny sports cars or huge motorcycles - just for the weekend - are still playing with toys they couldn't pay me to play with. Folks spending fortunes on 'adventure' holidays are also just playing at stuff they couldn't pay me to do.

      It's your life and your free time. You fill it with whatever makes you happy - that doesn't include mugging little old ladies of course - and we'd be pleased to see your efforts.

        We love modelling in all the ways.
        Actually I’m building a toy and nobody says nothing.....

                  Hi Pete
                  Can’t help thinking that someone would make a killing if they made suitable toon figures for these...
                  Cheers

                        Thanks Pete. Must admit I was thinking more of turret crew members really....quite surprised they didn’t go with that first...
                        Cheers

                          Me too, would have looked good with the right figure looking out of the turret.
