man on a bear?!?

I wonder who that’s supposed to represent …

[Dave Ward]

I've seen photos of him bare-chested on a horse, - but a bear??? :sad:

Fits the mythology he’s been creating (stroke been allowing others to create) around him, though.

You could make a nice humorous vignette with this figure and the one that came with that M1 Abrams kit from a while back, though.

One of my suppliers has just taken on distribution of Das Werk models, I will have this in mid January.
1/35 Faun L900 and Sdah115 Trailer.

Watched Andy from ''Andy's Hobby HQ'' built the truck on his youtube channel ..... Impressive model.

I wonder if Meng's kit is better than this kit of the same thing. Probably………..

I’ve got the 1/72 scale version of that kit, but not built it yet. Is the 1/35 one so bad? ISTR reading an article about it by someone who improved it, but not in such major ways that the base kit seemed totally wrong.

Trumpeter/HobbyBoss have posted some pages from their 2019 catalogue on their Facebook page - only aircraft & ships at the moment, and a bit too small to be comfortable.
However, I noticed this - which puzzled me..................................[ATTACH]324289[/ATTACH]
Now, what does "200mm" mean, on the 'New' Typhoon, Dragon etc? Surely it doesn't mean 1/9 scale? Anyone any idea?

Length of the completed kit?

I wouldn't call 1/18 scale a bit too small lol

[Dave Ward]

I realise it can't be 1/9! The Typhoon would be 1.78m long, with a wingspan of 1.21m it must be 1/18

200mm (20cm) is only just under 8". So probably 1/72 at a guess?
