Ladies, Gentlemen, never, never let the urge overcome you to open a long forgotten box: You& #39;re looking here at the scrap yard of almost four decades of military modelling. Most of these sad relicts once succumbed to the horrors of toy soldier battles ...
I& #39;m begging your pardon for this trip down memory lane but I want to show some of these wrecks before putting them away, maybe forever: This is one of my very first IDF kit bashattempts: Upgunning Monogram& #39;s 1/32 M8 with a Tamiya& #39;s early Matilda kit turret.
This one is even crazier. Sometimes shortly after Desert Storm I turned the venerable @ItaleriModelKit German Panzer 38 into a modern US Light Tank with 30 mm gun and TOW ...
Back in the days you couldn& #39;t get more firepower for less pocket money than with Tamiya& #39;s Saladin. I had two of them, because firepower against enemy toy soldiers was everything!
I must say I& #39;m not sure about this one but as far as I remember this is a 1/32 Monogram or Revell Snap Kit Bronco which received Hummer wheels. Together with the Italeri TOW carrier in the back it teamed up to form my 900th Devil& #39;s brigade!

Another Desert Storm inspired build and one of the many Hummers I did in the early 90s was Esci& #39;s Avenger with Stinger missile launchers. Not much left of this one though ...
Speaking of anti aircraft missiles in a sorry state. I never finished repainting Aurora& #39;s 1/40 Hawk launcher.
