mm - they look a little Tigerish to me..................

I was about to say, little point in silhouetting them, is there? And that, probably, means that there really are more different Tiger kits now than there were actual Tiger tanks produced during the war …

True, I looked at the silouettes and thought to myself - how original, I bet they are tigers... :rolling:

From Neverland Hobby's Facebook page - A totally new name to me with their first model ( from China )

Boxart looks OK, but it's a snap together model, no glue or paint needed big enough at 468mm, but I guess aimed more at the toy end of the market

That Whirlwind illustration on the box reminds me very much like the old 'Classic Airframes' kit box. Just checked for one on evilbay and the whole box looks very similar.

On the Amusing Hobby Facebook page - test build of their upcoming 1/35 Spähpanzer Ru 251



Looks the part- but it only had sufficient armour to keep out splinters & small arms fire

........and wrong price.

It was looking ok until the verbiage placed the word ‘the’ before HMS!
Just plain wrong!!!

 

[Jim R]

Anyone fancy a 1/87 HMS Victory?

Only if I win the lottery and can live to 110.

Love that Renault......been looking for a long time for one in my scale. There are a few Mfgs. in France but they haven't reached our shores yet.

 

[Jim R]

Nice to see so many innovative kits coming out of Ukraine at this troubled time. Not just MiniArt and ICM either. That transport plane is eye-catching, ugly but eye-catching :smiling:

Bit of a teaser, I have them in stock but can't sell them or tell people what it is, Airfix has a new mould kit, it will be announced and ready for sale on the 10th Nov.

 

[Guest]

At least it’s a more interesting teaser than the silhouettes we get from the Far East these days
