Daniel Krause Posted November 30, 2020 Author Share Posted November 30, 2020 Wow! @ Matty, Müller, Hans - I have "only" a EK1 and the Baden Zähringer Löwe for him. @ Webr, Leitholf - indeed a new GSF3bX! Among the native Weimar guys, quite a lot of the GSF3bX are missing in the roll. Bressem - indeed new! @ Komtur, thats a new one! Thanks!
