I've only ever visited when topics such as this pique my interest. Everytime I come away wondering why people bother with TMP.

Same here.
I'm frequently amazed at some people's high regard for their own opinion.
Sadly no longer with us - RIP (2018)

I can't understand why there's so much elitism on miniature forums, people need to get a grip, aren't we're just talking about miniatures and wargames for gods sake  :(

Maybe he ran afoul of our resident Asian Tiger?

Speaking of which, what is the status of this? And by this I mean the various Korean/Chinese/Asian stuff that has been asked about, not only the nineteenfifties bits.

We've not made a lot of progress on the foot, but we are working through some of the vehicles mentioned, like the PT-76 and the Cent's.

I didn't press him for details, merely saying what most people on this thread have said - it's unlike us. He's not noted for whinging, though.  :(

I hope he comes back for another visit.  Has he tried the Totty thread, not much prickly in there!
