' In cooperation with Amusing Hobby ' - is that based on an existing Amusing Hobby Model?

Morn Dave,

No, it is not unless Amusing Hobby has a new kit in development. This carrier is based on the Borgward IV chassis. Dragon has a kit of the Borgward IV that was later re-boxed by Revell. Luciano Brach makes 2 complete resin kits of this ammo carrier in the 2 versions.

Modellbau König, here in Germany develops kits in association with Amusing Hobby. They also work with Takom to bring out the Das Werk line of kits. It's a new one and probably a new molding too.

Allen,
I have the Revell boxing of the Borgward IV - tiny individual links have put me off actually building it!
Dave
 
So right Dave,

Patience of a Saint and a battleship full of nerves to build them. BTW, Das Werk also copies the resin kits from Michael Baldeweg from Customscale in Berlin and has them made in plastic.....

Set aside a quiet time with no distractions, and no caffeine, and give them a go, I found thinking about tiny tracks worse than actually doing them.

Odd selection! - I'd have thought a flute, tambourine, saxophone, trombone, rather than banjos or mandolins!

To me, the one that doesn’t fit is the marching bass drum? Can’t think of a scenario where it would be used with the other instruments. Trumpets are a little strange as well. Otherwise it looks like an American folk/Appalachian set up. They’ve got the accordion well covered haven’t they ;)

Hi Rich

I think Its the dragon 6454 kit, with extra G parts allowing you to make either a StuH or StuG G. There are some issues with accuracy though.

Thats a shame Bob.But it could be sufficent for a non expert mogeller like me.
Rich.
 
Its not too bad.but you would have to use parts from another kit to cure it

On the other side its a lot cheaper than trying to get the orignal Dragon kit!

Thankfully not everyone is a StuG sado lol

The mandolins will fit Balkan Partisans and banjos for the American Civil war. The base drums are the odd ones out. I thought at least a piano could substitute some of the accordions.

Cheers,

What are the main problems Bob?,Mixture of Alkett and other features?,Wrong return rollers?
Rich.
 
Hi Richard

From what i can see, wrong frontal armour, 50 not 80mm. The kit has zimmerit but its missing from the rear and being a tad nerdy. The front plates were interlocked welded. Not had a close look so not sure about anything else?

Its not a huge amount but dissapointing that Dragon has these parts etc on other kits so could have simply added those. Not sure how much it is but i know the orginal kits are expensive.

Not buying it as surprise, surprise i have the kits!
