Model Forum / General / Models / November 2007Need help with my Xmas Model List For Santa - What's that German Transport?
Was it Revell Germany? Came out a few years back, 6 or so engines? Am sending the wife out with my list soon. I was going to ask for the old Hasegawa 1/72 B-47 or Emily but the reviews were less than favorable....but I may add the Emily back on anyways.... thx - Craig > Was it Revell Germany?
