Well....
Although the tiger looks quite good....I'm not so impressed with the models of the men. :P

The wonderful thing about tiggers

their suspension is made out of rubber

and the 88 fires using springs

That's what I love about this forum !
I'm always learning something new....
Who'd have thought that.

So....Those little guns that I owned as a nipper....(The ones that fired matchsticks, using a spring) They were based on the real firing mechanism then ?
Gosh !!

Cheers - Phil :P
