SLUG FEST 2005 (NEED PHOTOS)
Posted by Anonymous on Monday, February 14, 2005 9:21 PM
Come one come all to Slug Fest 2005, Lets dust off those old photos and have a party!

Ok after yesterday when I spotted my very first NS Slug I have been smitten with the idea of kitbashing my very own slug. Since my memory only can take me so far I need some help from the best people in the world ( Insert back side kissing here[censored]) for some resources.

1. I need photos.
2. Are any model avilible.
Thanks all!

Here's a shot from a few years ago of a pair of NS RP-E4D slugs w/their GP40 "mother" For the record, these slugs have since been renumbered into the 900 block to make way for more GE Trash-9s'.
