Default Looky What Im Gettin' For Christmas...

http://www.spruebrothers.com/Nextern...bo-10299-d.htm

There is a store up the road about 20 miles from me that sells all kinds of stuff. They sell store buy-outs, discontinued stuff, tractor trailer wrecks, all kinds of ways of gettin their merch. Their stuff is sold "as is" and at unbelivable discounts. Ive never gotten anything bad from them but it does occasionally happen from what ive heard. Anyhow, i got Brandi to pick this up for me for 8 bucks, thats right 8 dollars. Its a 50 dollar model. They had the Panzer Jagd/IV70, two different models of the Sherman and a IS-2 as well. I would of liked them all but we didnt have the cash for them. Too bad as a deal like this probably wont be found again anytime soon, or ever.

I saw some of those on closeout at Hobby Lobby--but not at $8 a pop. Great buy! The display cases alone go for about $8 on sale.

Happy Thanksgiving to all!

Hopefully you will see no turkeys here. Our first pick this week is the Dragon 1:72 scale Ferdinand Eastern Front 1943 w/Zimmerit Coating from Sprue Brothers Models for $9.99.



Item #60054 is a static pre-assembled, pre-painted model made of both diecast and plastic.
Features:
- new-tooled upper super structure and lower hull
- true-scale model
- Historically accurate camouflage
- Detailed and weathered track links
- display case

Making its own gravy here:

Our blunder-bust this week is the Forces of Valor 1:16 scale Tiger I tank as it was seen in Poland in 1944, as part of Schwere Panzer Abteilung 505. Wartoyz has one for you at $359.99.



In pursuit of greater firepower, the German Army created a series of heavy battle tanks. One of the most formidable was the Tiger Tank. With 100MM thick armor plating and an awesome 88MM gun, the Tiger was vastly superior to the Allied tanks it faced.

This special 1:16 scale 2011 Limited Edition version of the Tiger I recreates the Tiger I tank as it was seen in Poland in 1944. As part of Schwere Panzer Abteilung 505, this Tiger I was emblazoned with the battalion logo of a charging knight on its turret.

The Forces of Valor 2011 Limited Edition Extreme Metal Tiger I possesses an incredible array of detailing on the tank. Beginning with the real metal tracks and continuing with working tank suspension, exquisite sculpting, casting and painting detail, and including many removable elements and tools. The engine compartment is accessible and the detailed engine will be removable and can be displayed separately.

This 1:16 scale Tiger 1 tank is approximately 16 inches long (22 inches including the gun barrel) and 9 inches wide. It includes a scale figure of the tank commander.

Get to one here:

First up flying CAP this week is the Carousel 1 1:48 scale F4F-3 VF-41 Red Rippers from Great Models for $34.95.



Get one here before all the C1's fly away for good:

Last to the table for Thanksgiving is a 1:72 scale Witty (?) F-14A Tomcat VF-124 Gunfighters, 1976 Bicentennial, NAS Miramar from Military Issue for $19.95.



Wearing a 1976 Bicentennial paint scheme, this 1/72 scale die cast model features engraved panel lines and simulated rivets, a detailed cockpit with an opening canopy and two crew figures, working swing-wings, external fuel tanks and a variety of missiles, realistic engine nozzles, an optional-position tail hook and air brake, extended landing gear, authentic VF-124 "Gunfighters" markings, and more. Measures 10¼" long with a 6"-10¼" variable wingspan.


Marking and celebrating 200 years of the U.S.A. here:

Yup--but I caught it quickly and posted it on the correct thread. Decided to leave it here as well to show that you and your country store inspired the first pick this week.
