    Decisions, Decisions................

    I've enjoyed the Tamiya Matilda so much, I've decided to go for another Tamiya 1/35 offering as my next build. I've poked around in the stash, and found three candidates.

    Don't think that any of these have figured recently in the forum.
    Which would you like too see blogged? ( open to bribery and flattery! :tongue-out3: )

      It's proper name is Renault UE Chenillette, but I guess use of trademarks raises it's ugly head - it also makes a forum search more difficult!

          My first instinct was to go for the french jobbie with buzz lightyear and his brother , i remember graham ( fenlander) building one ages ago , but then i just love the Wespe . Dont really know anything about tanks but I like this one as its open at the back so has a bit more to see, plus I did the old matchbox 1/76 version a few years ago and loved it , so Wespe for me dave

              The French carrier gets my vote. Looks so odd.

                            As interesting as ther French Go Cart looks, I have a soft spot for Self Propelled jobs.
