Great score Don, it does seem a nicely balanced buy, with useful articles in abundance.

You will have some fun with this.

good find, what did this lot set you back? what will you use for infantry? I know nothing about 1/87 scale.

Very nice! Loads of logistics vehicles for keeping everything going! Am I right in assuming that the last picture has four BRT-152s in it? And that a number of the trucks are also post war? If so, that just makes your purchase even better!

Thanks! I had my fangs out on that bidding war lol.

Dan the beauty of 1/87th is you can go either 15 or 20mm for your infantry without raising too many eyebrows...) I picked up some Russian figures from Stan Johnson
and am mixing them in with Orion
Federal Russians and Esci Warsaw Pact troops, for the Pink Panzer
unit I'm working on. That's where those four BTR 152s will end up in.
The rest of the loot will be spread out over the collection...it set me back 3.00 bucks but, not bad for 66 vehicles.
