I'm just thinking

I'm still looking at the Flames of War models. Turns out the US Parachute company is thermoplastic, which isn't super pleasant to work with. The tanks are all hard plastic as far as I can tell, but you can get a single Parachute platoon in hard plastic in the Fortress Europe and Hit the Beach starter sets. This would require me to buy like 5 to get all the stuff I want though, and I'd be stuck with a huge amount of German models I wouldn't want. I guess I could just bite the bullet and go with the thermoplastic stuff, but I'd rather not if I can help it.

And as soon as I buy anythibg my interest will wane again. I just can't win.
