Hello,

I've rolled the D8s again and we have the three themes of Head swap, Support and Collectable to choose from.

The nights are drawing in and a pleasant couple of evenings could be spent making a group build project.

I intend this build to start later in October and run through to the end of November.

Thank you and best wishes,
Martin Buck

Good choice of topics, Martin B (and nice to meet you yesterday too!).

Timely, as I'll be swapping heads in my next project.

I don't have the eyesight or steadiness of hand any more for headswaps so Plumped for support. I am sure there will be some great stuff on here either way.

Martin,
Is that an unique offer for Derek or one open to all?

Can I hear the floodgates opening?

Best wishes,

Hi Simon,
I wasn't sure which Simon you were as you were introduced to me as "Simon P" perhaps we should have our forum names on the name badges as well as our real ones.

Best wishes,

I voted for Support base, but all 3 or a combination of all 3 works for me.
I like Martin would always do some head Swops if people I know on here do struggle for various reasons. As Stewart knows my rates are relatively cheap a couple of packs of figures or something similar depending on what I do ?
Miles.

'Twas indeed me, Martin. Given the political situation in uMBongo, it's often best to be under cover and have several different identities to hand 🙂.

Hi Les,
If these are 14th army figures with helmeted heads then yes.

Thank you and regards,

No they are all different bodies with hats on for NZ troops. Some do still have the original helmet on the original body.
Bodies from AK47 and WW2 ranges.
