spacewolf Posted June 22, 2020 Share Posted June 22, 2020 I built Bandai armor waaayy back ... far too many moons ago. I had a diorama in mind and have been on the hunt for one of these truck at a reasonable price for some time.. finally got it. The kit is old, it's not up to todays standards but oh my is it nice. A coat of Microscale decal film over the 46 year old decals did the trick... yes those are the kit decals. Very few problems, no extra's added ... a fun nostalgic build.

Out2gtcha Posted June 23, 2020 Share Posted June 23, 2020 Wow, that looks pretty awesome! Amazing that those decals were able to be used after nearly 50 years. spacewolf and Rick Griewski 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mustang1989 Posted June 29, 2020 Share Posted June 29, 2020 I really like those old Bandai Armor kits. I built up the 1/48 scale BMW R75 w/ Side car model from them and had a really good time with it. This build turned out freekin' AWESOME!!!!! spacewolf 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_K2 Posted June 29, 2020 Share Posted June 29, 2020 Nice job. I have a couple of tiny 1:72 trucks and tanks to get to, "one of these days", but no 1:48 scale stuff, even though there are some great kits out there. spacewolf 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabre F-86 Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 I have a couple in my stash along with a few other Bandai tanks. Years ago I read an article about someone swapping the rubber band tracks for a set of individual track links from a Polish tankette in 1/35th. From the photos in the article it was pretty simple and effective. spacewolf 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
