Verlinden and Warriors are coming back:

It is a pleasure to announce that Greg Coooper from The Scale Model Graveyard and out of Denison, Texas has legally purchased the entire resin products lines of Verlinden Productions and Warriors Scale Models.

Both lines are in the process of getting back into slow production and distribution. It will take some time to sort out the entire tractor trailer full of masters and stock that was purchased.

From Special Hobby's Facebook page...............

I'd seen this ( and made it ) in 1/72 - but not in 1/48!

Not many Special Armour models - This is the ICM Panhard body, with a new turret. ( The ICM model has been reboxed by Revell & Tamiya as well! )

On the ICM website.......................



Only the Brewster models are new moulds.............

There seems to be something wrong with that Typhoon, but I can’t put my finger on it … Wait, it’s all in one piece, that’s it!

Good to see 50% going to Armed Forces of Ukraine. Not my thing but tempted to buy for that alone.

I'm just waiting for the Russian BMP & Ukrainian tractor combo.........

On the Border Model Facebook page - "Lancaster has been dispatched and our agents all over the world will receive the goods within a certain time, due to Covid 19 and some mold problems, we have been delayed for a long time. And after this batch of Lancaster is sent, it will not be able to be produced again for a long time. Large molds are very troublesome to repair."


On the Roden Facebook page - new release for May

Convair Crusader in 1/144 - Test aircraft - with a small nuclear reactor!!!!!!!!!!!

Only 1:144? No fun … after the Lancaster I thought this was going to be in 1:32 too …

Verlinden and Warriors are coming back:

That's good news. I hope they are successful enough for products to be available through a UK supplier.

On the Copper State Model Facebook page - renders of their upcoming 1/35 1917 Erhardt armoured car

That looks rather nice!

On the Italeri Facebook page - 'new' releases

Reboxes, but the Stirling has been offered as the Mk.I & Mk.IV before, so some new parts?

On the ICM website - new releases

Both combined boxing of existing models
