I know this isn't our type of model (at least not most of ours), but since I get and collect other things from The Franklin Mint, I received a news letter from them today and found this:



I must say, it's PDG! Check it out...some nice shots with decent details.

Good find Kenc' , and nice piece. O.K., the obvious question since it's from the Franklin Mint....
How much?
Never minded anything of quality.

Tread.

Okay Tread, since you ask w/o clicking the link I provided...(Link Meister...indeed... )
How about 5 easy monthly installments of only $39.

BTW Tread, nice new mug-shot! Is that of a Jar-Head? Just kidding my friend.

Link Meister...hmmm.

Kence...
Do you ever "improve" on the FM models? ie: weather, add detail?
It looks great. But, I need all my disposable income for food (and to expand my stash).

Oh no Chuck. I don't purchase anything like these from them. I just saw the mailer yesterday and thought it was pretty cool that the FM would offer an ole Sherman. It struck me as "different" because FM usually offers mostly the "fine china" collectables. Which my wife gobbles up. :-) I will say that they also have some cool swords and knives on offer.

LOL.....First, how did you know I didn't click the link O' Grand Link Meister? Maybe I did and just closed my eyes when they spotted the first inkling of a price TOO high...hmmmmmm.?
Second, unfortunately I couldn't find a cartoon-like version of Chesty Puller (can you imagine what that would look like? ) So, I had to settle for a 'spud' US Army guy by the name of SGT. ROCK!! ( insert hard chargin' music here;). I guess if I had to settle for a regular Army guy, I had to pick the best, SGT ROCK (again, with the music...hehe)
Lastly, I've worn out my left mouse button clicking all the links you provide!! Now I've got to go to CompUSA and get another mouse.......
:-)

Remember the guys in 'Saving Private Ryan's' platoon........" I love ya buddy, smootch

Tread.

"Quality is astronomically wonderful!"

What does that mean?
Is it really big quality?



Just curious (and artificially inflating my postings I guess).
