    Totally agree that the Market for Pz IV’s is already a little busy! A quick check on Scalemates shows over 100 1:35th kits from various manufacturers of different versions and variants!

    Wouldn’t say that I’m thrilled by the RFM announcement but interesting to see wether they will produce with interior as that’s something that I personally like:smiling4:

    I just had a count up of panzer IV variants and got up to 17 (may be more than that?) so if RFM want to make the most of tooling I can see why they choose Pz IV’s!

    Personally I’d like to see Pz I’s and II’s but you can’t please all the people all the time

      These kits will have interiors — look at the sprues The round thing at the top of the picture can’t be much else than the turret floor, the parts with the turret ring (all three of them, I suppose they’re different) have locating ridges on the inside, etc.

          The lower figure is in a pose common to middle, and far east males - I've seen Egyptians, Yemenis, Pakistanis, Indians & Bengalis adopt this - an international pose!

            Wing Nut Wings announced yesterday at the Chattanooga show that they are going to be releasing a brand new 1/32 DR.1 Triplane (Red Baron type). Price unknown at this point.

              Al,
              all I can find is that there will be two versions, early & late, and it will be available in 2020...

                Yes Dave. There is a massive discussion (and drooling) about it on LSP forum.

                    I should think that this won't be cheap - better make that appointment with the Bank Manager!

                      Really cracking my head on how that mould must look like :thinking: :surprised:

                      Looks very fine indeed

                        Wow if the fit is as good as the moulding it,ll be a great kit , the canopy treatment is interesting , two options all clear or separate frame and clear inserts?

                          AMK don't seem to have a working website, just a Facebook page - at least one of their other models has the same sort of moulding technology for weapons - the 1/48 Kfir

                            1.3m long ( 1:200 ) - you'll need a bigger bench!

                              Glad to see the return of magic tracks, especially after I had a set of the DS tracks go brittle and greasy on a tiger build!
