Great...I can model the Malaysian Tebuan(Hornet) from this kit as I have decals for it.

Cheers,

Might try and get me grubby mitts on the half track trio!

IMHO, most of the 1:35 scale kits are a complete waste of time to re-release … There are far better kits of the M4A3E2 and the halftracks (well, except the M21, but those were hardly used in the real world anyway) and of the Marder II. Only the Marder 1A2 has no real alternatives.

Is the guy on the right auditioning for one of Richards dioramas?
 
Nah, he’s saying…..
“But I’m telling you….the Paranoid John Birch society members March like this…….”
 
I see all your points, Gents, which are far more consistent than mine as I was just thinking two were dancing Bangles' hit "Walk like an Egyptian" while the other two were evaluating their performance in a Army special edition of "X Factor"... :smiling4: .

What I want to know is where are all the 1/48 StuGs?

Just out of interest, do modern oil drums differ that much from their WW2 forebears..... It's just that they look remarkably similar to the 1/35 Tamiya WW2 ones I have...... But then I'm not an oil drum expert.....

Careful what you wish for Dave, you might end up reporting on them for weeks :tongue-out3:
 
True....but still 'modern'.... I'm sure with a coat of dunkelgelb it olive drab most people would not know the difference! ;) :smiling5:
Jerry oil drums were galvanised with iron banding, they were not painted ;)
