I think Hasegawa concentrate on their home market, they seem to make a fair number of cars, but I can't recall ever having seen one!

A Polish Officer in 1/16 - I suspect this may be one of their 'Guards of the World series' That holster & automatic look modern to me.........

They do look modern, but I can’t tell what pistol it’s supposed to represent. It doesn’t really look like any of the modern Polish service pistols to me, but then, it’s hard to tell from this photo.

On the Zvezda Facebook page, some sprue shots of their imminent M4 release

Interesting to see how the link & length tracks work out - I note that it's a flatpack lower hull.....................

On the Italeri Facebook page, test shots of some sprues for their forthcoming 1/32 Tornado

I do hope they're not compromising things by making 'working' swing wings

So are the Asuka kits, but Sherman hulls are pretty simple so no problems there that I’ve experienced, if they provide something like the engine compartment firewall to keep things square.

Odd that they moulded the bearings for the suspension arms open, with a little axle on the arms, only to have them non-working by moulding both arms and the levers above them as one piece. Also: Chrysler sprocket rings in an M4A2 kit, when Chrysler never built that variant. Luckily they also include sprockets with a circular hole in the middle, which are correct for this tank. Certainly looks like a good kit, however.

Guys. Can i politely ask that if you are posting an item seen on the net that it is (as far as possible) a pic of the boxart/CAD design etc. Filling the page(s) with endless sprue shots and history lessons isn't really what this thread is for.

Thank you

Bump!

Why is it that everything Russia produces seems to be straight out of Thunderbirds / Captain Scarlet :smiling5: :smiling5: :smiling5:

Now, this gets a bit murky - Scalemates has this as a reboxing of Wingnut Wings model, but others seem to think it's Mends Tooling.

I thought that Wingnut Wings had gone out of business, but according to this https://www.stuff.co.nz/business/121...-company-shuts there is no confirmation of it's final demise (yet), so that's the latest info I could find.........
