On the Takom Facebook page.......................................

Following their announcement of the three Tigers, you can now get them all in one 'big box'

I reckon you'd have to be a real rich, Tiger nut to go for this. Personally, I couldn't make three Tiger models, essentially the same model with a few different sprues..............

Oh, but as an added incentive, they give you another Otto Carius in 1:16.

I make Fw190s with different paint schemes. It's real easy

This is what I meant by being targeted to specific collectors. It will probably stay in the big box for show.. :rolling:

Nice to see Copper State embracing the advantages of 3D printed models and actually offering the motorcycle in more than one scale

On the 'The modelling news' website, they have this photo as a reference for the figures, isn't that a M-8 Greyhound followed by some Jeeps

 

[Tim Marlow]

Are they shots of the infiltration unit that used Panthers disguised as M10s? Can’t remember who they were though. Looks like that shot would make an interesting dio……

 

[Guest]

It is. My guess is those were simply captured recently, when the German army overran American units in the Ardennes Offensive. Given how short the German army was on motorised transport at any time during the war, using these and crowding them with troops would make a lot of sense.

It's now available for Pre-order with delivery in Feb, 2024. The big fun box cost is €99 from MBK, here in Germany I'm pretty sure John will have it in the shop too...

Prost

Not something I’d buy, but to be honest it sounds pretty good value. Works out at less than thirty quid a model.

 

[Allen Dewire]

Me either, Tim. I have enough Tigers that growl at me every time I go near the stash.............

I've never actually built one....... But I do have the new Airfix 1/72 kit in the stash!

 

[rtfoe]

I started one but am still at it 14 years on.
