Spots on the Internet 2020

As you say Dave, grim. True heroes who are worth remembering though, and An enduring image from possibly the best TV series I’ve ever seen!
 
Gary,
I've never posted Hasegawa 'new' models - I don't think they have actually produced new mouldings for several years. On Scalemates the E2C has no less then 12 boxings, and if you look at the Hasegawa 1/72 A6M Zero - I stopped counting at 30 decal changes! Most of their range go through this - F-104, F-16 etc etc
They're nice models, but they seem to have stopped producing really new moulds, and only new decals & boxes! :confused:

You are right , many are re-box/new parts/ new decals.
Except for the new egg-people and some manga/anime models.
 
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!

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!
