I couldn't possibly make the room for this, so watching the video will have to do! It's a really complex model......
On their Facebook page ICM say that there are 29600 rivets!

From MiniArt - 'new kit in progress'
I assume injection moulded replaces the vacformed original - I wonder if any more of the diorama bases will re-emerge?

Well you won't need this Dave, you could 3D print as many as you like for next to nothing!
1/35th , both from Gecko , March hopefully.

I think that was the most wished-for LCA variant 
Depending on how much,(I suspect a LOT !), I'd DEFINITELY be up for that LCA.1/35th , both from Gecko , March hopefully.
I'm still waiting for the Royal Navy version to make it over here.
Talking of waiting for for this type of thing.... do you know if anyone does a LCT-R ,(The D-Day Rocket ones?!), I've looked for ages and can't find anything at all

What, in 1:35?! I take it you mean an LCR, by the way, Landing Craft, Rocket, like this one:
Accurate Armour have an LCT(4) in both 1:35 and 1:76 that you could build 1066 rockets onto yourself … (If you do find one in a sensible scale, do let me know — they were used in my neck of the woods too.)

I got it a few weeks ago, so it’s available in the Netherlands (as I ordered it here). I take it you don’t want to get it from abroad, then?
Yeah, that exactly type of thing :smiling3:What, in 1:35?! I take it you mean an LCR, by the way, Landing Craft, Rocket, like this one:

I've seen some excellent footage of them,"Unleashing Hell" on D-Day..
... But you're right...
... Nothing available.... BUMMER!!
I got a couple of Gecko LCAs a few months ago. I also have the Fonderie Miniatures kit which is an interesting build and not for the feint of heart! Personally, that was the version I was waiting for and I was surprised (to say the least) that Gecko had released a new kit of this British landing craft.
As an aside, it’s a shame Accurate Armour no longer do the LCT 4 in 1/35 as that would make one epic diorama. I do however have scale drawings for the LCT 4 so the plan is to scratch build it one day. I even have the kits to load her out.
Aaagh, so much to do!!!!
The Gecko kit looks good in the box Ian. :thumb2:
Cheers

As long as it is in the EU I'm fine. Does The Netherlands still have insane postal charges. Last time I ordered from there I had to sit down and have a cup of tea!
On the ICM Facebook page - 'soon on sale'
I wonder why 1/144? - I can only think of one or two WWII ship models in this scale ( Revell Flower & LSM )
On the Amusing Hobby Facebook page
Hmm - a future development, based on the Leopard 2A4

Here’s one doing just that about 5 km from where I live …
I just checked, and a parcel between 1 and 2 kg without track and trace is €10 to Denmark, via PostNL. The shop where I ordered mine says in their terms and conditions that they will contact you about postal charges beforehand if you’re outside the Benelux.
On the Trumpeter/HobbyBoss/I Love Kits Facebook page their 2023 catalogue - It's not on their websites - so this is the best at the moment:
One oddball - I Love Kits - SBD Dauntless in 1/18? What's that about?

Nice one Jakko,
It jammed at 2:20 secs, but before that there's more than enough "firing footage" to show the awesome power of their salvos.
