John - To be fair, I just told her to tip all of the discarded figures in the spare room into a big box, but Katherine does want them stored properly. The soil is still a secret that only Joe and I know (it was his 10th birthday on Tuesday by the way).
Steve - Most of what I have in the stash is German, though mainly busts, including a falschirmjager, panzer commander and DAK man, so at least they are a bit different. I also have on order a Reedees 1/9 German Motorcyclist, but at least there the scale is different. Can't say we have a decontamination routine, especially with a postman who insists on delivering hand to hand.(always with a wry smile upon his face). Hope you get some sculpting done over the weekend. Keep warm.
