Progress pics of a VERY late, VERY rare Tiger.

I was going to complain to Lawrence about your indiscretions. Apologies accepted.
I'll enter it in TamiyaCon if I can find the head. The Iron Cross spins and the PAB squirts weissbier, I believe that was historically correct.
I had heard rumors that Marceux led the famous 'air' french resistance but this was the first real account of action I know of, thanks.

I bow to your knowledge of all things German!

QUOTE: Originally posted by ausf Unfortunately, they were only issue High Explosive Pie (HEP). This was designed to be used as an anti-infantry weapon. The idea was to immobilize the enemy with incapicitating laughter during approach, then drop a HEP round. The French tried it with Mimes. Didn't work though, all the Mimes were destroyed by anti-mime mines.

It may be a small thing, Ausf, but you just made my day. I am a little hungover and fragile today, and going through a "what does it all mean ?" phase, and now I feel like everything is going to be alright. I hate mimes. Really hate them. Now I have this wonderful little cartoon of exploding French mimes playing in my head. Thank you, sir.

Glad I could help a friend.
I have to admit, I keep giggling to myself at the visual of a couple of black-and-white-striped-shirt clad Frenchmen with white face trying to sneak up to a Tiger at night, doing that dopey 'walking against wind' crap only to exploded, absolutely silently mind you, into a million pieces.
With Micheal Palin as the Panzer Commander in the cupola doing double takes looking around for more. Wind rustling, metal clanking but dead silence when one of them blows up.

And just think, the allies will be developing a pantomime horse to counter the Tiger....
I wonder if Dragon will introduce that kit?

Anyone remember Freddy Flameout? Was there ever an armored version or is this it?

HAHAHA...nuts!
