This "color argument" is old & tired. There seems to be two camps: Collectors who simply don't care about authentic colors, shades, two-tones, et...

Nice video John, four things: 1) Those rear latches remind me of my 1/18 Motor City horse trailer set-up; they're similar and nicely done too. 2) ...

@rich-sufficool Great story, I'm glad it had a happy ending (despite that doorway and your cat! ). 3 years...whew! 🙄 🙄 😬 😬

Yes, when one can see 1/18 scale weld-beads.... I'd say that's great detail! The "white items" to which you refer are part of the interior storage. ...

I can't claim I'm an expert, but I've always liked WW II tanks. I have others packed away. One day, I'll bring them all out and set up a display on a ...
