I took out my Commonwealth kits and for the most part, many of them are in good shape. They may need a bit of refurbishment, but nothing too drastic.
I have enough to do North Africa, Italian, North West Europe and Asia.
Things should be good. More to follow

My German armor is still in pretty good shape
I had forgotten how many kits I had built, or were nearly completed.
I have at least 6 Hanamogs, 4 of which will need some restoration, but many are ready to hit the table.
My two Panther tanks are fit, all except their exhast pipes having broken off. I found a few 10mm ones as well.
I have a large amount of Elephant tank destroyers. There are several Tigers, but all of them need some major refurbishment.
The happy find was about 6 Stug Tank destroyers, so I can go to town on many small Bolt Action games. I should invest in a copy of Tank War from the publishers of Bolt Action. More to follow.

WOW MY COLLECTION IS HUGE!!!!!!!!!!
I unpacked most of my kit today into my new house, and by golly, the amount is HUGE! I forgot just how big it is. It will take me some time to base them, paint those that need it, fix any which need some touch ups, but, I have the rest of my life, so no worries. Pictures to follow.

Revell Comet tank and British Paratroopers
Another set which is picked up is a combination set Revell put out.
Both of these kits I have been able to construct and paint after two years.
The Comet has been painted as an 11th Armoured Division Fife and Forfar Yeomanry tank. Update 3/23/2019: I have an additional Comet, so the 11th will have a full regiment.
The Paras have been painted as 156 Para Battn.

Revell Panzergrenadier
While clearing out my stuff in storage, I was able to pick up some additional equipment my father had been able to acquire for me, over the last ten years. One of the items was a box of Revell Panzergrenadiers.
Pictures to follow of the box, and figures.

Found my tank and artillery books
I've found two of my source books on tanks and artillery. When I was previously in Canada in 2003, I had been able to list how many of each type of weapon I had in 1/72. Now that my collection has increased, I will have to update it. But housing comes first.

More Recce elements or Heavy weapon jeeps
On my travels in my home city of Halifax, I found a set Dragon Armored jeeps. The set contains two jeeps with weapon choices of twin bazookas, a .50 cal or .30 cal jeep. Pictures to follow.
