Good find, good choice. I'm still using one I got years ago, with a scene from the Battle of Britain on it.

Can't say much for most of the rest of them, though.

I wonder how good the uboot movies are ?

i really havnt ordered much of anything from this site.

its all German WW2 stuff primarily, but whatever it was i ordered like two years ago put me on their mailing list.

so the mail comes every few weeks with new products, i thumb through it and trash it as usually nothing much catches my eye, or i dont have use for any of it. (ie. what am i going to do with a 10" adolf hitler doll?)

but the mouse pad was cool.

also i think they have some good CDs with March songs and ww2 German music for any of you sound modders out there :hmm:

The mousepad is awesome.

Perhaps I'm mistaken but it appears that the site promotes Nazism.

If it weren't for that there is some very intriguing merchandise.

well i dont know.

it is a good site which specializes in the sale of reinactment supplies, reinactor's uniforms, modeling supplies, movie quality memorabilia, history books and history documentation and films.

just as the site says "Find historically accurate resources void of distracting propaganda and politically correct distortions" which i think is important... if im going to buy a reproduction piece, or even a flag... i dont want it to be "edited" to suit the feelings of someone else.

furthermore, i think that whether or not it promotes nazism depends on what the buyer does with the things they buy.

for example, if i was making a student film and it called for a nazi headquarters scene... this would obviously be the place to go... no harm done.

but if i were to buy a nazi flag and a nuremberg eagle for my front yard to hang next to the "Heil Hitler" and "keep out!" garden signs... sure i guess it would be promoting nazism. :rotfl:

besides it is a family owned and operated business and the guy includes a lot of family photos of his wife kids and dogs. i think that is kind of nice
