Ahh, the infamous aluminum barrel seam. I believe this may have been the incident that sparked our beloved feldmarschall’s decline in builds…

I thought that was 2009, when I was there, 2 years ago.

HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!! [:D]…[:D[

“A SEAM IN THE BARREL!?!?!”

H AH AHAHHAHAAHHAHAHAHAH!!!

Oh my GAWD, Manny–you missed your calling, man! You shoulda been a comedian!

Thanks for the great, unforgettable laugh! [:D[[:D[[:D[

LMAO

I can’t stop laughing. That video made my day.

But, so good… it seams.

I’m just a rollin’ here…

Thanks for the avoidance of the “F” word too so I can show this to others.

Manstein, I really do hope that you’re kidding and are not still upset about not winning gold… The vignette I had there at AMPS that took gold didn’t even place at the Dallas IPMS show the previous spring. The results will vary widely depending on the show, the judging style and the judges themselves. One cannot EXPECT to win anything at a show no matter how hard they worked on something much less expect a gold or 1st place every time.

Anyway, better luck next time! [:D]

[:D[[Y][:D][t$t] funny say is it true.

That is freakin hilarious Manny!

I hope this will make up for the “seam” loss!

“I bought it myself on-line!” - classic.

Isn’t RB Model out of Poland? Hmm…that might explain a lot…

I haven’t laughed so hard since watching Foster brooks on the Dean Martin Roasts! Oh, that was funnnnnnnyyyyy.

Btw, I loved that movie and have watched it so many times, I can now speak Deutche fluently.

Tojo72 · February 4, 2011, 9:01pm

OMG that video is great,someone has too much time on their hands

p38jl · February 4, 2011, 9:10pm

there is no crying, in modeling…

beav · February 4, 2011, 9:24pm

Anyone have a picture of the ‘seam’? I think we should do an honorary rejudging.

BigSmitty · February 4, 2011, 9:27pm

“There is no crying in modeling… hush now.”

I now have a new sign to hang up in my workshop. And I had to explain to the wife why I was laughing so hard over Hitler…hard to explain.

detailfreak · February 4, 2011, 9:46pm

Highly illogical![:D[

Boba_Fett · February 4, 2011, 9:56pm

I just sent this to a fellow modeler… and he cracked up laughing. Manny FTW!

Stage_Left · February 4, 2011, 11:13pm

Ummm…perhaps Caan would look more favorably on the Feldmarschall’s efforts…

Found it very hard to follow as I understand German and knew what old Adolf was saying, so I had to focus on all the free time you had for undertitles. Sorry manny but I still have the barrel incident in my head every time I enter a show…always have to think of you buddy. In ten years it will still be fresh in my head… man that sucks what they pulled on you dude.

Like the video, and of course will watch my metal barrel seams in the upcoming AMPS International show.

Manny your still Gold to us bro, no matter what Adolf says.
