However, I did notice that you've missed out a question mark, at the end of the 4-digit section.... NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I feel like I should know, buy my mind's gone blank. It follows on from the style of the "Fistful of Frankens" post - so it's straight from one of the posters for the movie... Fantastic typography on those spaghetti Western posters! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fantastic typography on those spaghetti Western posters! Ahhhhhh!!! For some reason I had a feel it was Western inspired, by I looked at Django Unchained by Tarentino. Then gave in and asked you.

MAJ75 922 Posted October 4, 2020 @Popperini a great companion piece to expand on your "Fistful" thread. Amazing to see so much strength in depth even when adding the 4 & 6 digit references into the mix (not forgetting the Sea Dwellers). Anybody wanting a Franken Sub via M2M needs to be really sharp to stop you mopping the lot up! I admire your commitment & engagement with the hobby. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

black263 228 Posted October 4, 2020 You're obviously out of your bloody mind. That number of Rollies in 2 years is clearly a sign of a defective mentality. No wonder you fit in here so well. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
