I came across an OLD collection from my earlier days of some Roco/Roskopf 1/100 scale Leopard MBTs (6) and some HS-30 APCs (5) that would be good (or at least good enough) for a Cold War West German force. They are in decent shape though the HS-30s have lost most of the attached 106mm recoiled rifles they came with. While the Team Yankee flood is in full force, I admit a WG territorial force isn't really that exciting to me these days given the already too many projects I have. So, I am torn what to do with these. Should I: A. Horde them until some day in the far future the dream of a WG territorial force holding the last ambush site in the Fulda Gap catches my fancy. B. Hold them long enough to see what other manufacturers are up to. C. Give them to a friend of mine who may be interested. D. See how much I can make on EBay to fund my other whimsies. E. Take them to the next convention flea market and see what the market will bear. F. Hope some third world tin pot despot will be interested ("Hello President for Life in Mugabia, have I got a deal for you!"). Any Thoughts/comments/pointed jokes? |

the leopards could be used with some mods keep them, I had loads of roskopf models and I regret selling them all a few years back! |

I'm interested as well, and would be willing to swap them for some more modern, Leopard 1A4s, and/or Kanones, if you are interested in them. Willing to pay cash as well for the HS-30s. E-mail: rkentjr AT Hotmail (d0t} c o m If anyone else is interested in the Leo1A4s (which can also serve as 1A3s, or Canadian Leo C1s), or Kanones, let me know. I have five of each that are surplus to my needs. |

Stuff firecrackers in them and light them up-did that when I was 10. |

'Stuff firecrackers in them and light them up-did that when I was 10.' Nice to know I wasn't the only one. |

Ah, the joy of destruction! While I did my fair share of playing with fire (and have the scar to prove it!) I will contact the above to see if they have a better end in mind for these fair vehicles. Thanks for the memories. |
