I believe I know who you?re referring to. I bought a bunch of stuff including two mint 1/18 scale german 75 mm anti tank guns. I also have a case of unopened 1/32 German Marders waiting for some future use.

Man, seeing that online store popup at the time was such an enjoyable blast in the past.

When they started, just seeing a flak 88, or the Pak 40s and those Battle of the Bulge coated German figures and USMC marines and Japanese Imperial Marines all in stock.

Was a glorious last Huraah considering 21st century itself had went Bankrupt.
