ROTFL!!! Build22!!! [:D] [:D] [:D] I love the new Verlinden figures!!! BTW did you have any trouble fitting the “Shermman” figure in the hatch??? [;)] [:D] [:p]
On a side note the model looks like it’s coming along nicely.[:D]
Help, …Can’t…breath…laughing…too…hard…
I think I hurt myself.
We’re not worthy, we’re not worthy. What makes it all the better is that it is a German tank.
I thought you guys might like that. It was either that or the cover of “Band of Brothers” DVD but I couldn’t get the pictures small enough.
Erush - the Sherm-man figure is Verlinden # 1857 in your catalog, right near #1856 Tank Girl reading “War & Peace”. And I didn’t have to trim anything off to get him in the hatch he fit pretty good - maybe those Germans had short arms and couldn’t push themselves awy from the table
Erock and SF - that’s how they show it on the model box, although, the way he’s positioned and that smile on his face it does make you wonder?
SF - Sorry I didn’t have Shermans ready to go. But keep an open mind, I thought you looked good in there.
Hysterical, I love the figs. [:D] Oh, the tank is looking great by the way. [^] Shermie looks right at home. Bill looks…well quite happy back there. Ahem. Cough, cough…[B)]

ROFL…that was awesome Build. Shermie in a Panzer na na na nee poo poo!!! [:D] I love it.
I love the Brummbar…and can’t wait to get it started myself (in about 2 years at my pace). Shermie sent me some awesome line drawings of a multitude of armor, and the Brummbar was one of em. I have the Dragon kit as well as Tamiyas. Not sure if I will go with zim yet or not…(blasphemy!!)
Looks great Build, very nice conversion and that resin hull looks sweet.
Keep em coming…looks like you feel confident enough to post more pics so soon…nice!!
I too tried to order a Sherm-man figure and they’re sold out with no predicted ship date. It seems that orders have far outstripped the production capabilities due to a resin shortage, or actually due to the amount of resin needed to cast the figure.
They told me they were able to cast one, (build22 got it) and that took their entire years worth of resin stock.[:D] [:D] [;)]
Actually I might still have that band of brothers shot if I didn’t erase it. I’ll check.
SF,
Thanks for being receptive to a little kidding. Really, it’s great that all these people have this kind of interest and respect for you. I think it shows how many people you have influenced. Thanks for being there.
If you had a picture of your wife we could work her in as part of a diorama.
And I’m putting my Sherm-man up for bid on e-bay, so get in line to bid
Tigerman & Moses - Thanks for the comments.
Moses- I have a Dragon brummbar as well. I’ll compare the two once I get to that one. Yeah, there’s no reservation in posting now.
Already? Sure?
Man, this means I have to scratchbuild one. Ain’t gonna be easy.
[:D][:D][:D]
Seriously now,
Hi Build22, I forgot to mention earlier…nice build. Looks like we’re in for another good one. You brought us much needed laugh, too. You know what could be better than this? A thread dedicated mainly for builds of those guys lucky enough to get that Sherm figure. Just kidding Sherm. (ha-ha-ha-ha)
