Some sad news. The Model Box in Barton le Clay, Bedfordshire will be closing in a few months. The dreadful winter has taken its toll on the owners health and wellbeing so they are packing up when the lease runs out. If you are in the area pop in and help them clear their stock. 👍👍 #histscalemodels

If you're truly proud to be British, you stay on this cold, rainy island, pay your taxes and complain about it, you don't run off to some sunny tax haven to avoid paying for a system that gave you or your ancestors the wealth in the first place.

Yes, yes, it's yet another 'Battle of the Bulge' thread, but one with a difference; this thread focuses on a single specific tank model used in the battle. And that model is the German Panther 'M10' conversion which saw its first & only combat 80 years ago tomorrow, on December 21st, 1944. 1/

Black & white photo of the front view of a German Panther tank, disguised as an American M10 tank destroyer. It's parked at the side of a café set in a 3-storey building. In the background are wooded hills. The tank's turret is traversed to its right. Photo taken some time after the battle.
