It turns out they had quite a bit. Do I blame Two Fat Lardies or my own poor impulse control? Anyway, it's done now, so next task is to smuggle them into the house without drawing too much attention to how much I've spent!

Ooops...
I set up a table for a solo run-through of What a Tanker 6mm last night, and realised that 6 blokes around a table each with one 6mm tank is just not going to cut it, so I popped into a couple of model shops to see what they had.

For one-on-one tank action, I think bigger is better.
ReplyDeleteYes, I agree, though the wallet may not!
DeleteThat is quite a selection. Hopefully they are quick and easy ones to build.
ReplyDeleteNot exactly quick, but I’m out of practice!
DeleteGood luck with the smuggling operation Aaron!
ReplyDeleteMission accomplished!
DeleteA lovely selection of tanks. Take them into the house whilst she’s in the shower...
ReplyDeleteTo be fair, my wife never complains about my hobby purchases. It’s my own conscience I have to assuage!
DeleteUh oh! You are a very naughty boy!
ReplyDeleteWell, I couldn’t leave them! What if I went away, realized I needed something, and when I came back someone else had bought it?! I would never forgive myself :)
DeleteLol!
DeleteCould be that she’ll accept the cover story that your blog was hacked and this post ain’t real...
ReplyDeleteHaha, I’ll blame you then Ed!
DeleteI do like the JagdPanzer L70, such a different and interesting look.
ReplyDeleteIt’s a nice model too. Almost built!
DeleteWow! What a Haul! :) Nice projects, Aaron.
ReplyDeleteCertainly a change from the usual!
DeleteWow, er nice haul and hole in budget too ;) It's worth it if they get painted and used ;) That is my excuse anyway
ReplyDeleteYep :)
DeleteYes, keeping the amount of toys secret from the Mrs is a big part of the hobby. Out of sight out of mind! They don't understand why we need so many, I don't either, but I always want to buy more.
ReplyDeleteIt could be psychologically wrenching to say no, so best not to!
DeleteI think you are onto something!
DeleteJust tell her they were lonely and needed a good home.
ReplyDeleteThanks Bill, added to the 'tactical comments' file!
DeleteWhatta a lot of Tank(ers)s!
ReplyDeleteI find honesty i the best poolicy when it comes to purchases, and my wife never hassles me about them either. :-)
Yes, definitely the best policy, Peter!
