Arrivals

 

The long anticipated parcel arrived today.
Its arrival caused great excitement amongst the toy soldiers in the Duchy.

The Army Red White General instructed his troops to send the news by means of carrier pigeon.
Various troops wander about in amazement. An officer has drawn his sword ready to tackle the sellotape.
The contents are finally unveiled, three A7 tanks.
The tanks are given an inspection inside and out.

A lick of paint and these will be ready for an alfresco battle…

  1. Nice haul!
    Are those A7s Emhar models?
    This blogpost inspired me to re-watch the video of the World's very first tank battle:

  4. Ha ha! You have succumbed to the seductive bundles on Steve Weston’s website (or choppedmerc ebay shop?) … then there are his Mexican peasant bundles, the WW2 Late War British infantry bundles …
    I hope the inspecting Ruddles are happy!
