Well, it's a rainy and dreary day today. My wife is vacuuming the house SO I'm obviously doing some IMPORTANT loafing in the garage.
Back in 2000/01, when they first came out, I ordered a 1/6 Stuart tank. It's NOT the r/c version so it's been setting on a shelf in the closet. I hadn't even thought much about it until my sweetie mentioned a few days ago that we needed shelf space and could I move that 'big tank you've had forever' out to the garage. THEN my little brain remembered it!
So THIS MORNING, being the 'conscious husband' that I is, I went to the closet, got it off the shelf and toted it to the garage as a backdrop for the accordion player pics I was going to post for the Commander.
After I took those two pics I noticed the Stuart looked sitting there beside the Tiger! And WOW! Did ya ever read 'The Haunted Tank'? Everybody else in the 5th/6th grade school in the mid-60s read 'Superman', 'Batman', some Green Dude, junk like that. But I only read 'G.I. Combat', 'Sgt. Rock', serious reading like that! THAT was when I started loving TANKS!
And now, with these two tanks side by side, my tiny brane registered that some pics for size comparisons would be interesting to do.
I thought about trying to get one of the Stuart commanders' fingers to point up from the other fingers but couldn't figure out how to do that...
Both tanks are 1/6 scale.
Something to do on a lousy, rainy day... (later when my Sweetie is done vacuuming I'll do some important things: make some pizza, drank a 'couple' beeers, and watch a movie!)
