:-)
easy mistake.
Terry C's Titanic is a great model alright. What was it? 18000 parts or so?
2.3 million? ACK! I have a hard time keeping my measly collection
sorted. Hell, I have a lot of unopened boxes just because I have nowhere to
put the pieces. Conan is an apt name. :-)
Who was that famous person (an author, maybe?) who had the large collection?
I remember a thread about it on RTL, but can't remember his name. Lives
(lived?) in New York?
