Interesting - they have all the CAD data from their 1/35 StiGs, so a logical progression. I'm going to keep an eye out for this, I want to see how MiniArt handle the tracks! Maybe all individual links!!:dizzy: I reckon this will come in at a high price tag, as well!

Bit rude they don't say its pics of a 35er ,the indi track hold no fear but the price will plus your not exactly going to get what their promising here ,manufacturers logo on the road wheels look at some of the other shots on there web page if it was 72nd you'd be blown away I wouldn't even build it id open the box every couple of day and just admire the parts/mouldings ,still as you say I'll keep a eye on this one ,keep em coming Dave always keen to look at what you throw up from the tinter net.

I saw that in the flesh today on their stand at SMC. Quite impressive a model, I must say.

One day we'll see a fantastic diorama of a post war market made with miniart ffigures.ones with really great ears...

Yep - pigs ears....

[Guest]

I am confused about what these MiniArt figure sets represent - they seem to be more slanted to the 50's showing affluence and plenty. For late 30's & 40's, with poverty, occupation, shortages & rationing the figures don't really tally - the sets of soldiers at a cafe look more like film extras, on a break! Fruit & Veg sets that have things like bananas - something not seen in occupied Europe in the war years ( or Britain either, probably ). It seems, as Ian says, post war markets - is there a demand for these figures? I've no idea !

True Dave, I remember the first time I was given an orange in 1950, just bit into it......

At least the turret is on correctly in those shots It wasn’t when I spotted it, so I couldn’t stop myself correcting it.

[Allen Dewire]

I probably would have too Jakko, but just the size/scale is way to big for me. I can only imagine what the aftermarket will produce for it later. Plus, think about the price(s) too!!!

I’m not holding my breath, this Lanmo Models doesn’t have that great track record with accuracy.

AFV Club is going to release a YPR 765 PRAT (anti-tank) and a YPR 765 PRGN (combat engineer vehicle).

PRAT:

PRGN:

It says “pri50” but with the big rack on the back, it’s a late-version PRGN, which you could also build as a PRI .50 (the infantry vehicle with a machine gun rather than a 25 mm turret) by leaving off the rack.
