    Just looked around over time, and seen people's collections and things people wish they had and such. Well what would you like someday? It can be anything :), though don't put : Hitler's Uniform, or something impossible.
    Please post a small picture response, also the value (if you want to) of today.

    Heres mine.

    I remember seeing one when I whent to France that the Paratrooper was an outstanding 15,000 EUROS. 0.0 that is just for the helmet and overcoat! That FG just looks mean and amazing, you know you can buy a deactivated one?

    Martin I am surprised no Mossie FB or NF for your collection ? I'd take a Ju 88G-6 fully equipped, ah but not sure where to keep it the nearest air field can imagine it would be stripped in no time or burned on the spot.

    She's a good Girl Erich; I've already been told if I ever get the Bofors of my dreams I'm officially allowed to emplace it on the garage roof, and if I get my hands on a tank I suspect I'll be fighting her off regarding squashing things with it.

    AT Gun's a nice idea though - I could just about squeeze this into the yard (possibly having to cut a hole in the gate for the barrel):

    Though I do suspect it might have to host a hanging basket or two...

    I've always fancied having one of these wonderful contraptions parked in my garage.

    Now you're making me jealous, Martin.

    I saw one on display in the shop at Dead Mans Corner museum in Normandy a few years ago.

    I was so tempted to climb in to it. :)
