You can probably cut those dragon's teeth-things off and fill the space with something -- Celluclay, maybe? -- maybe even reuse them, if they're true-to-scale.

Excellent find, but I would never have room enough for it!

It was still in box filled with packing peanuts.

Manny , I agree with the teeth.

Looks cool but I'm not sure the Dragon's teeth are accurate in their placement...

Yes, endless diorama possibilities there.  I straightaway heard Tom Hanks telling the guy with the flamethrower, "BURN IT !"

A very good "score". Looks to be in nice condition. I like finding models in thrift stores and yard sales as well. Great deals there.

54mm, so 1/32nd. Close enough I think.\

Hello I found this at a yardsale and picked it up.  It is made of a foam(kinda like greatstuff), it looks to me that it should be an Atlantic wall bunker. Let me know what you think

In the last pic is a yard stick to give an idea of how big this is!

Thanks Jason
