I was expecting the crew figures to be at the same standards as there Bofors crew, but was obviously giving airfix's 1960's sculpts too much credit.<br /><br />FFFriendlyFirehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10989874198292993945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6766453942791169811.post-18323445902347345892013-02-08T16:31:16.717-08:002013-02-08T16:31:16.717-08:00An oldie but a goodie.
