In another thread, I mentioned how weak I was, piling up a number of « must buys » on my 2020 shopping list.

Well, I got the first of those, a rather smallish box, that fits nicely on my bench :rolleyes:

Me very happy :wub:

Very cool Hubert, please make a build thread on this!

Had a visit from our postwoman this afternoon with a fairly large box from HLJ.

Inside was a nice mix of stuff.

Trying to catch up to JohnB. :D

Not really but I like Corsairs almost as much as he does.

This thing would have given a Jagdtiger a run for its money.

Whilst science is the greatest invention of mankind, the second may be considered the invention of toilet paper. :thumbsup2:

It's marvelous stuff really...

Can be used as tissues in circumstances where there's a gathering and someone's standing down for whatever reason; or in the conventional manner when you're otherwise full of sh*t.

Very handy to have.

Received yesterday #2 of my 2020 « To-buy » list ...

The resin pilot inside, and the Master MG barrels are nice additions. Plus the box has an extra version depicted on the box art, slightly less boring than the ones in the standard box : it has white « gull-wing » stripes on the wing top.

And the inside is drop-dead gorgeous :wub:

Wait for the big battle sequence. You're going to get goosebumps from that one.

I miss Lower Storm Leader Melda Deitz ... I was hoping that she would get a reunion with Akira Yamamoto in this series at some point ... doesn't look like that will happen though ...

Ok guys, not a clue what your talking about “2202”...........now I feel old..........:hsmack:

Space Battleship Yamato 2202 is a Japanese anime series. It's the second season, 2199 was the first one. It was renamed Star Blazers for us round eyes. Oh wait, I'm Chinese. :D

Anyways,  it's a remake of the original series which came out in the late '70s.

2199 is about the war between Earth and the Garmillas Empire. Earth has been bombed into submission and is near defeat when they get an offer of help from an alien planet called Iscandar. To get there, the UN Cosmo Navy is given plans for a faster than light engine and build a battleship using said engine to make the journey called the Yamato. Long story short, the crew make it to Iscandar, get the cure and home again in time to save the planet. 

2202 is the second season and is 3 years later, hence 2202. This time there's a bigger threat called Galantis that's wiping out everything in the galaxy. So off they go again. 

Here's the opening credits if you're interested:
