    A great looking tanker by Alan, and the Thompson MG looks terrific Andy. I like the yelling face, and the addiction of the plastic lens for the goggles, and including the shoulder patches and rank decals is a welcome surprise. This excellent piece has alot to offer. Congrats and Regards, SG:happy:

    Thank you all for the kind comments.
    I wanted to make the Goggle's separate from the Tank helmet.... Looks more realistic then having it molded to the helmet.
    In the kit there are instructions & template to cut the Clear Goggle Lens.
    There are also instructions for making the Thompson Sling.
    This figure is after my Dad.... He was a gunner in the M5A1 Late Stuart Tanks & M24 Chaffee Tanks.
    The Patches in the kit where my Dad's Tank Patches..

    I would also like to Thank Alan Ball & Mike Spivey for doing a traffic job on the figure!!
