    I couldn't help myself guys....

    It was more than I wanted to spend, but it is in good condition and they're getting harder to find. I've wanted one in the old collection for a while, and now it's inbound.

    I was thinking of the immortal words of Socrates, who said "....I drank what?"

    I look inside myself and see my heart is black, I see my red door and it has been painted black. Maybe then I'll fade away and not have to face the facts, It's not easy facing up when your whole world is black.

    I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I've watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die.

    Close the door, put out the light. You know they won't be home tonight. The snow falls hard and don't you know? The winds of Thor are blowing cold.
    They're wearing steel that's bright and true They carry news that must get through. They choose the path where no-one goes. They hold no quarter.

    Well, I have a blue Russian model in a Ministry case. This one is USSR!! You're definitely right, no collection is complete without it saying USSR inside and out. Thanks!

    Looks great bud! My only issue is that the bezel is off centred in the pic and playing havoc with my OCD. LOL.
