I've helped my kids build a few over the last couple years, which are now hanging from the ceilings in their bedrooms. I wouldn't dare start back up with the hobby since they take up a lot of room and the fact that the wife would cut my you know what off if I started decorating the house with warbird models.

One of the reasons I started to collecting the Corgi diecast airplanes and such is that I do not have time or space to devote to model building nor do I have display space. The small size of these enables displaying a lot of aircraft and armor in a small space. I just added a P-51 "Short Fuse Salle" (bringing it to three P-51's, a B-24, and a PR blue P-38 (bringing the total to 5). I think I've maxed
out the available space. :)

Thats cool Scott! I started collecting diecast A/C several years ago to get WWII pilots to autograph them. So far I've got Tex Hill, Dick Cole, Paul Tibbetts, Jim Swett, Archie Donahue, Dean Caswell, and others. I could post pics if your interested.

Heh, no, because then Princess Leia's line would be...

"Aren't you a little tubby to be a Stormtrooper?"
