__________________  We have built a total of about 1250 of this aircraft (Me-262), but only fifty were allowed to be used as fighters - as interceptors. And out of this fifty, there were never more than 25 operational. So we had only a very, very few.

Country:  | Sounds just great, Gnomey - I'll trade him for my Waffen SS Panzer officer, if you'd like - he's in grade 1 condition, except that his head wobbles a bit when you knock the jar - no significant holing, although his left hand falls off now and again when the formaldehyde eats through the string... What d'you think?

Country: | Right, I'll just get my jars out... Where did I put my cloning tweezers?
Did you want the clone alive, and if so, what age do you want him arrested at?

Preferably before he gets Parkinsons and before the onset of paranoia say around 1939ish so in his late 30's or at the time of the Munich Putsch.

Country: | Anybody got any physical relics of Erich Hartmann? I'll swop then, depending on condition, for an authentic thigh bone from Josef Goebbels, recognizable from being twisted out of shape, vgc with provenance and expertise from Sotheby's.

Country: | More fun with the paranoia, if you ask me - half way through the (gefillte) fish, you could tell him the cook's Jewish! and sit back to watch!
Any bits of Hartmann for Adler?

I too would love to have one.
I only have one of Guy Gibson of the famous airmen.

Country: | Bl**dy dog got into my collection, knocked over two of my jars of formaldehyde, and bu**ered off with my Panzer Officer's left arm. I've still got his hand, but it looks a bit silly just floating there with a bit of string. He got a live AT mine, too. I'm waiting for the bang - any minute now...
