That will make a nice addition to your desk, Rochie. If you don't mind, how much did they cost?

Nice lookin set there, Rochie! *g* At first glance, I looked at the first pic and wondered who was flying those planes! Obi Wan in the Spit, and maybe Darth Maul in the 109? *G*


(then I saw the last pic)
