Hi all

I originally thought of a 1/72 Stug, but after looking at retails shops, ebay, etc, I found I could get a 1/35 models for only a few ponds more! So...............

From ebay auctions, <£17 delivered. It's the elderly Italeri version reboxed - at least it doesn't have any motorisation slots to fill! I have some individual IV track links somewhere, if I can find them..........
This is going into the stash to await December

Good choice Dave and a bargain to boot!

Well done sir !!

From ebay auctions, <£17 delivered.

Did you win it for £13.69ish? lol

 

[Dave Ward]

Al,
actually £16.99 with free postage................
Dave

 

[AlanG]

Ah ok. I lost an auction on one of those for that price ex del.

 

[Dave Ward]

Oops,
losing an auction is annoying - I've bid on one particular model on ebay many times, and been beaten every time! - I suppose it's because I have a mental price limit, and will not chase bids. I console myself that another will pop up shortly, and next time I will win!

That’s why I don’t like auctions — I want to see a price that I can buy it for there and then.

Yet I enjoy watching shows like Bargain Hunt on BBC

 

[Dave Ward]

Jakko,
yes, entertaining when it's not your money! :smiling4:

Well, I just won an auction on eBay so will be building this:



It's not what I intended to build, but I got it along with a Hobby boss T-50 for 26 notes so I shan't complain.

 

[Lee Drennen]

This is shaping up great I still can’t make up my mind o have the old 1/35 Tamiya one and a new tool 1/48 Tamiya one I think I’ll make a choice soon

 

[Lee Drennen]

Bob
Will this work? It’s in 1/48 might try some winter camo on this

 

[BattleshipBob]

Lee, not a problem

Never built one of these, good reviews?

[Mickc1440]

Well I’m definitely in now, I’ve bought a very expensive Stug

 

[BattleshipBob]

Well done Mick, welcome to Stugland!!
Bob

Hi Bob

Came across this GB on the forum as I was having a nose around.

A quick search online found me the perfect kit for 15% less than RRP AND free postage, which meant I HAD too break my promise to myself to buy no further kits this year!!!!! In short it's all your fault!!!

Order was placed at lunchtime so watch this space. I think you'll like the choice!!!

 

[AlanG]

Anything Stug related is bound to be Bob's fault. Look at me. A total wingy thing modeller and now dipping into the dirty, muddy world of armour lol.
