I figure I'll end up with close to 200 Eduard figures on the ships and in the ships boats, as well as aboard U-505.
I ordered a Type (IX)C HP kit from Pacific Front but Bill is currently NIS on that one. If push comes to shove I'll use a Skywave one - which I seem to have misplaced at the moment...
