Has anyone else noticed the profusion of die cast models of tanks and planes that have been coming out lately? The detail appears to excellent. I wonder if the reason they are coming out with so many of these is the fact that us Baby Boomers are getting older and don't have the eyesight or patience to build our own any more? I have bought a few and am looking for more. There is a nice big Fw 190D-9 that I saw at Walmart and intend to buy. The tanks have weathering and everything........................................
