Rick Griewski Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 20 hours ago, LSP_K2 said: Oh yes, I finally committed, and opted for the B, as it seems to possibly have more options, plus it just looks cooler than the A, at least to me. Given all the physical differences, I considered it the better option of the two. Should make for a very interesting side-by-side with my big Jagdtiger too. I found the kit to be a very enjoyable build. The tracks were a bit tiring. I used the shaft of a small drill bit to line up the links. All was easygoing after that. I will buy the A variant or the Spanish version eventually. Have fun. mpk and LSP_K2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The plastic track pins, a real letdown, will be replaced on mine, with piano wire or similar. I do love the fact the track pieces are ejector pin mark free though. mpk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wackyracer Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 Its arrived... Stunning. If you have any interest in this era then I highly recommend this kit. The level of detail is amazing. mpk, Rick Griewski, scvrobeson and 8 others 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Griewski Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 The Nimrod, how cool. I am jealous and also full of angst because there are so many between the wars kits and I cannot keep up. LSP_K2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mpk Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 Here's the last lot of models I picked up on sale. My next move is to sell off the things in my stash I probably won't build. I bought this guy for my 1/16 panzer. Out2gtcha, Lothar, Kagemusha and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_K2 Posted November 27, 2020 Author Share Posted November 27, 2020 Some great stuff there, Dale. I've been considering doing a collection of more or less OOB 1:35 German Panzers, I-VI as a display. I don't know if I'll ever actually get around to it, but it's one of several hobby ideas that I have. mpk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LSP_K2 Posted November 28, 2020 Author Share Posted November 28, 2020 And another. Not real sure yet what I'll do with this, perhaps a Tiger turret change, V2 to Miellerwagen, or something else, who knows. Good price though, or I certainly wouldn't have been able to afford it. Really large box and a jillion parts; just too cool. dodgem37, Neo, mpk and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did it, I finally did it.......I left home and faced high temperatures and hot wind (no I wasn't talking!), took a bus and had to walk and then ascend 2 flights of stairs. TWO FLIGHTS!!!! IN THE HEAT!!! IT'S HOT!!!! But I made it. I found and paid for it. Then I decended TWO FLIGHTS of stairs with only gravity and teeth gritted determination to assist me. Here it is. In all it's regal spendour, a Lancaster cockpit. Not a Lincoln! Nor a Shackleton. A Lancaster. To celebrate I bought a six pack of Corona beer. My 1st drink in many many months. Because it's hot.

RadBaron Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 $17 for one of these bad boys. Thank you BF sales! It will be built as NL151AM.
