Gallery Models are the ones that just recently released the 1:16 StuG IIIG. From what I've seen, it looks pretty sweet too. scvrobeson and LSP_Matt 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Williams Posted April 26, 2022 Share Posted April 26, 2022 I think Gallery Models is one of the Trumpeter offshoots like I Love Kit and Merit, or at least Trumpeter does the molding and instructions. scvrobeson, LSP_K2, LSP_Matt and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dodgem37 Posted April 26, 2022 Share Posted April 26, 2022 At 1/200, it seems to me they could have done this in 1/144. Anyway. Sincerely, Mark firefly7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncarina Posted April 26, 2022 Author Share Posted April 26, 2022 My pleasure Maru! I sold my Nichimo kit years ago with the Gold Medal Models photoetch set. Both were impressive, but I’ll be curious to see what this one looks like. Cheers, Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sincerely, Mark With a growing 'fleet' of similar subjects in 1:200 it makes sense I think... Still a very large and impressive thing in that scale!

Still a very large and impressive thing in that scale! Iain Agreed - I think 1/200 is the right scale for this. I honestly never thought we would see a model of a japanese subject coming out of China. They still seem to have an awful lot of historic "bad blood" between them. Now we just need a modern US Carrier in 1/200 - I would clear shelfspace for that! (or buy a bigger house ) Uncarina and Iain 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they even reboxed some of the earlier Trumpeter ship kits. Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cbk57 Posted April 26, 2022 Share Posted April 26, 2022 I had thought Fujimi was going to do something as they released a lot of the super structure and gun turrets in 1/200, I don't know if these are plant on replacements for the Nikimo kit or what the intent was. I just thought they were doing these stand alone mini kits to subsidize the big project that would ultimately come out but it seems they just stopped.
