"It's fair to say I spent many a long hour when both my two lads were little playing with their LEGO…and sometimes, if they were good, they got to join in too. Our best builds were forts, or siege weapons that used elastic bands to catapult marbles at the defenders, (I like to think they were brought up proper like). Anywhoo we constantly struggled to create warlike things with what was in those days a very non military toy.

If only we'd waited for twenty odd years!

Now, I'm kind of used to having a hobby (regular wargaming) that's considered "niche", but it seems I'm now totally out nerded by a group inhabiting a niche within my niche…"

It would be easy to dismiss this collection as daft kids' stuff however clever. Until you follow the links and see Stuarts, Shermans with VVSS and HVSS every German tank and SS Camo uniforms. Much research gone into this and any new Sherman is welcome.

Terrific

My son and I play WWII "Legos." We have fun playing small scenarios.
