Thanks everyone for the compliments. As for the klickys, there is a large blue bucket on one of the shelves (it used to hold mushrooms at a restaurant) that one holds all the civilians. All the other ones are stored in plastic bags separated by themes. I also have quite a few large boxes of spare parts and sets that are net yet complete.

Bill, I already have the new rescue and ladder trucks on order from a store up in Michigan.  ;D

But they aren't due out in the States until 2010!

So it used to hold mushrooms, but now it's full of fun guys? <hi hat cymbal noise>

You're on the ball then! I've still got some other items I need to get before they retire  :-\ before worrying about the new items!

Thanks for the pictures of your impressive collection and it is so tidy and clean . .
If you hear the sound of the bell which will tell you that Grigori has been killed, if it was your relations who have wrought my death, then no one in the family will remain alive. They will be killed by the Russian people. :prays:

BTW Ben, not to be nosey, but how many of each type of the new vehicles have you reserved so far? Like 10 of the new rescue engines, & 6 of the Tower Ladders, 4 of the chiefs vehicles, & 2 of the boats, & trailers, not to mention the direct approach fire suit outfitted Klickys?  ;D! Just wondering because you said "trucks" were on order  :woohoo:!

So far just the rescue and the ladder (1 of each). I think if I like them enough, everything will eventually get replaced. I'm working on side-mount pumps for all the 3880's, making them a little more US style.
