Rare week day off for me today so went early to the post office to pick up some stuff.

Very partial to the Sealion and surprised they dont fetch Roboskull prices when in good / complete condition although I suppose they arent as iconic as far as the range goes...

Nice. Sealion was one of those ones I was going to buy complete or not at all. Its a superb craft.

Yeah, think it might be my favourite vehicle from the range. I have a couple missing aerials and missiles and am resigned to buying other more complete ones to finish them off.

the sealion is a very underrated toy, for me i think it is possibly the best one. price does seem to rise more so when you get to the AF logo with the muti-jointed Dolphin that can get expensiveish.

I aren't big on getting vehicles I already have for the different series. I.e. The Z tank is a Z tank, not an AF one in my book. But if they schlap AF stickers on it, then its a whole different story. So I do plan to get an AF one. Incidentally I nabbed a near complete AF Triad this week too for 3 quid. All I need now is Moondancer. ;-)

The Sealion is one of the better vehicles alright.

The Cobra Surveillance Port is a cool little playset, it looks great on display with a few TeleVipers and Vipers manning it.

I bought that Eisenblut card from a guy in Switzerland back in 2000.

I stupidly removed the figure from it back then and customised it! :duh:
I thought "What use is a :baron: without a :enemy: logo?" and painted the whole figure to look like the comic character Madman.
It was shite!

It is a masterpiece, there's just so many features packed in. Seeing her on the deck of the Flagg reminds me of the fifth panel in the final page of Operation Sealion. You need to make a custom winch now!
