Good man. Almost forgot to say...
Not a new acquisition, but I've just bleached my PW helmet net. Colour came out a treat, and is now a medium brown colour - not authentic due to the hooks/style, but much closer now. Pics when It's dry.

I finally got my hands on a D-Boy K98. Lots of help from Airsoft Armories with fitting the delivery in around my touring. I've a wood kit to go on it and 12 clips and 60 rounds to go with it.
I got a pair of the Sturm type 2 FJ boots from Zeugmeisterei along with a planetree 5 zelt and a zelt pole/peg bag.
A rather stinky airborne [sleeping] bag from WPG, warm but so stinky.
Some RAF wools and some more KD's from Jerry round out that order.

Needle doesn't move. The listing didn't mention that. Got it from Krautbay. It looks lovely.
Obviously, I have complained - does anybody know if they're repairable?

Id recommend that film to anyone interested in the war. Really tells the story of what happened in Berlin in those last few days. Hitler is excellently protrayed.
