I managed to get back to UK last week,
cleared out the last of my 10mm miniatures from my shed at my house. managed to get to the lock up and
retrieve my 10mm stuff from there as well.
so over the weekend I sat down with a cup of tea (should of been something a lot stronger)
as alluded to in the 'misplaced items' thread I knew I had a few packs back in UK.
So after gathering all the figure packs (just packs not painted!!!!!)
it turns out I have around 111 German packs :o ranging from Early War Fallschirmjaeger and infantry to King Tigers !!!
Brits I have 45 packs again ranging from Capt Mainwarings finest to General Urqhuarts lol
Soviets have a palty 29 packs :-
these are full packs of unpainted Infantry and Vehicles.
I have full painted Arm9ies of Soviets, Germans and British both infantry and Vehicles.
I know I bought a lot of these figures in 2014/15 when i was working in Germany the first time. (I used to be on here as Sean67)
A lot have the old code numbers so ill spend the next few days investigating what is in the packs.

Lots of work there Sean
Sounds like you've a busy time ahead of you!
I've been there recently in terms of sorting through a load of German stuff that was bought for me as a present a good few years ago. Trying to remember what I planned to do with it all was the tricky thing!
Hi Steve J
I started an early war Sealion build and a D-Day build when I was over here in 2015.
the Sealion was German Fallschirmjaeger and air landing Division taking a British Airfield and then linking up with the sea borne assault.
I have 2 Ju52 and a few Stuka's for the Air assault. a certain Home guard unit has also been preparade to make an appearance.
I was part of the Guild before it shut down as part of the big build (I think in 2015/16) I was doing D-Day in 10mm.
this was assault infantry, Hobarts funny's and British/French Commandos.
opposing them was various German Infantry and 21st Pzr Div.
this was Documented on my Blog.

My figures only fight in the summer, makes terrain so much simpler

And made certain they only carried a Sterling. Had a couple of colleagues in Merseyside Police who were know as the Olympic Torch (Never Go Out) or alternativley the station cat.
there was a test pilot in my unit (gulf 1) who demanded to go as they needed more test pilots.
He got his wish and deployed 'big I am' till the war started then suddenly got a mystery back complaint that only cleared up after all the shooting had stopped. !

Agreed, they can even stretch to mid spring and mid autumn ;)
Well done winter troops and terrain does look spectacular though
