Latest Acquisitions (2020)

[Jack L]

Evening Jack,

The shells are made by Eureka, which is a company in Poland. I just learned about their products and they have some nice things to offer...

I got them from a dealer here in Germany for €7,50. They are sweet and finely made…….

Thanks Allen, I will have a look. Sounds like they are a bit cheaper than the AFV offerings.

Postie dropped this off this morning to make sure the stash doesn't dry out. I think this will jump to the top of the pile.

Another left by the postie and knowing what the kit decals are like I have got a full aftermarket set to replace them.

Been at it again

For my recent Tamiya Jagdpanzer IV good kit but no skirts??


No guesses whats next, this will make it 3 Ausf E, now i have not lost the plot (no comments please):thinking:

I plan to do a early and very late Ausf E then use the third E to make a early F with the longer L 43 gun. The E kit comes with spares to make a F, apart from the gun. in fact basically the early F was really a E with a long gun

My brain hurts

I wondered where George Lucas had got his sand people from!

No point doing things by halves:

These are individual sprues taken from Plastic Soldier Co sets. Their vehicles are normally sold in sets of four or five kits, but while I like them a lot, I don't want lots of duplicates.



I do have some duplicates of the 8-rad 'cos there's three different variants I like. Also included were four sets of figures - German and Russian infantry and heavy infantry weapons. Plenty of choice for a dio or two ... or three ....

Off to the bench!

Please excuse my ignorance Dave, but what scale are they? The box photo is just out of focus enough for me to not be able to read it. Rick H.

You beat me to it Ian! Yes, they're all 1/100 scale and the figures are 15mm.

Sorry about the blurry pics, I didn't bother setting my little camera up on it's tripod with a time delay - which is the ONLY way I can get pics with no blurring due to the shakes I have. I'll set the camera up properly when I take pics of the finished kits.

Delivered in less than 24 hours from ordering courtesy of John super fast delivery.

Thank you Ian and Dave. I am very interested in these due to their scale. I hope you will post your build progress, as it would be of interest to me to see how these go together. Cheers, Rick H.

Hi Rick. There are so few parts involved in these little kits that there's not a lot to show for build progress. Just out of interest though, here's where I've got with the first build after about 20 minutes:


It's now ready for paint as once again there's no filling required anywhere. I've left off the tracks and outer wheels just to make painting easier.

There's a guy called Herbert Herpaderp (Yes - really!) whose done a lot of video reviews of these kits - worth checking out if you want more info.

PS Just for the purists. There are a number of variants of the Tiger which can be built from this kit. I don't have any instructions so I've just used the parts I like best. It still looks like a Tiger to me!

PPS. I know this thread is for purchases and not builds. I put it here to answer Rick's question but if this upsets anyone could I ask one of the mods to move it for me please?

Thank you Dave, a pic is better than a thousand words. I do hope you will post a build thread.
I would be very interested to see these come together. Rick H.

Hate to say this Rick, but that WAS my build thread. Next pics will be of the finished kit (possibly on a dio, I haven't decided yet).
