Btw, just as an illustration, you can see here my new Graf Spee along side of the KGV that I built. It is 1:720 vs 1:570.

Nice, Marcel. I know this is an old thread but I only just found it. Nice model of the Graf Spee, my brother had one as a kid and I always liked it. This is a photo of the ship pre-war, out of interest's sake, although it has an Arado 196 rather than the Heinkel.

Here are a few pictures I took whilst in Montevideo a few years back. The Graf Spee's rangefinder.

A cap in the museum, which has an excellent series of displays on the ship.

Must be great to be able to travel all over the world.

It has upsides. Living in Europe is just as cool though - you travelled an hour to see me in an extraordinarily historic site, you've got foreign countries with fascinating histories right on your doorstep. I have to spend nearly 24 hours on a plane to get decent salami!
