Hey,

Can I get the "Ultimate soldier XD" at toys'rus or where do you guys get those from?

I saw a post on it and a website, was that toys'rus? Is that where I would get those??

I still build models though I have a 1/32 scale t34/85 panzer iv, panzer iii, tiger, panther A, and a kv-II all 1/32 scale. No working on su-100.

I was interested in wwii befor combat mission so, my combat mission purchase was a result of my wwii interests and cause I play games!

I have some 20 books on wwii alone.

I bought the three Burgett books as well as Closing with the Enemy (which Charles and Steve should get printing rights for and just call it "Combat Mission Strategy Guide") and my two 1:6 21st Century Toys troopers (101 trooper in Normany and Panzer Grenedier) both augmented with stuff from spare weapons packs... my 101st guy has a .45 (painted silver like Burett's) and a Lugar.

Been thinking about getting that M5 to let the Panzer Grenadier have something to shoot that 'faust at...

Tell us about the vids<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

I bought it today so it has not arrived yet. What interests me is that the films are "five original Nazi newsreels from 1941 to 1945." So there won't be the allied slant to events. Of course there should be a German slant but that should give the film a little omph smile.gif. We'll see.

I've bought an entrenching tool. You see, sometimes when I lock the view to a unit in the middle of an arty barrage, I hit the deck and try digging a foxhole, and it's really hard doing that with just fingernails. The linolium under my chair is all scratched up now, thanks to CM. frown.gif

I have bought a new computer as well as had my Grandfather who is a German Vet of WWII tell some stories of his tales. I have heard them before when I was just a boy but now that I am 24 he added some gruesome details he probably left out because I was young.

Well I have purchased a new GeForce 2 card for mod graphics (very satisfied I might add).

Kelly's Heroes DVD . . . Goes without saying

WWII DVD Collection from Amazon.com http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00004TS0M/103-5836667-6542258 . . . Not shipped yet

Book on Armor Tactics . . .

I have lost: sleep, productivity at work, and respect as an adult from my wife.

All in all a fair trade.

I have currently bought 4 off an 8 vudeo series that documents German Panzers of WW2.

They contain rare footage( After Villers-bocage, Sturmtiger firing, 88mm firing while still limbered etc...)

The price is $45 in Australia, but well worth it.

Check them out here:http://www.ihffilm.com/ihf/diedeutpange.html
