Aid for the needy

At the Megablitz game last Saturday several players generously took pity on my well-documented shortage of toys and made donations to my collection.  Fred Cartwright provided the E-100 (above) - a plastic kit which he threw in with some Hungarian AFVs I bought from him.  I expect it's only a matter of time before major retailers adopt his innovative "Free E-100 with every Hungarian Panzer Division" approach.  I'm sure it's a winner.
Recent convert and fellow blogist The Dancing Cake Tin brought along this metal kit of an M3A1 Scout Car.  In the fullness of time a Russian Tank corps will be glad of it.
Last and er, most Chris Kemp - always keenly aware of the importance of logistic vehicles - provides this engagingly disreputable looking quartet.  Rest assured Chris - I have work for them all!

Is that a Texas thing? Everything has to be bigger - even the ridiculous modelling projects!

The M3 is a 1/72ish kit - the style looks familiar but I can't think who the maker is.
