Hmmm...re-enacting the old circus gag of being shot out of a canon.

I wonder what Moriarty would say, "Sherlock, it's not the shot, it's the landing that gets you". Or something along those lines!

Cheers,

Very nice rendition and composition taken from an actual photograph of GIs "sizing up" a Sturmtiger in 1945.

Yep, that's the one. I wonder if the figure in the tube is full length, or some sort of inserted plug. I've considered doing this with my Tamiya Sturmtiger for a number of years now by modifying an older Dragon figure. Wish there was more information on this set.
