[mikemcgrail]

Greetings,

Below is an overview of sets and lots available. Most of this is military themed but there are also some other genres as well. These are being prepared to go to an auction house some time in the upcoming months but I wanted to make these known/available to this community before hand.

If any of this is on your want list or peeks your interest, drop me a PM and we can discuss things further.

Gr, Mike
