Didn't they do that to the Maginot Line?

Looks bigger in photos.

The sad part is, someone (certainly not a TMP'er) watched that and thought – that's how small it is ?

No! It's not THAT small.

It's those HUGE BLOODY MONGOLS you gotta come to terms with!

Someone forgot to put the abatis on top of it. That is what happens when you sublet the work out to low bid.

This is a funny thread. Of course, we all know that size doesn't matter.

This story is completely true. Pink Floyd wrote the song "(Add) Another Brick In The Wall" to garner support for the upgrade we all see today. The idea was shot down so they went in another direction with the lyrics.

If that was made with Hirst Bricks, it'd still be every bit a wonder of the (gaming) world.

Most people don't realize it, but people were much smaller back then….

And the Punic wars were not puny, either, so n'yah, history! N'yah!!

The Odyssey IS pretty damn odd, though.

I think the same model maker got the same instructions from the Ian, the manager of the band Spinal Tap.
