hi guys have emailed then via their website (always hate doing that - never sure it gets through) http://www.scaleprecision.com/index.html but no answer after 3 days @Moeggo / Dave... I know you rave about them so want to give them a go, but not even a reply just to acknowledge and i am a trifle disappointed i have a prepared file i want to email them / share with them via DropBox got any "real" contact details (anyone)? looked on Facebook but their name is too generic for me to find them if they are there cheers guys Nick

funny on the timing huh?

it's a great way to get a decent kit same price as a Tamiya 'Stang? that seems good value to me

Back in stock but not many left... Great value if you like the 152 Would post link but difficult on phone; can be found under manufacturer 'super wings series' I think - but don't hold me to that! Cheers Nick

ok, Google really IS your friend (unless I suppose you used to work for Lycos or some other extinct search engine, but I digress) PMMS is a one man band run by Terry Ashley as much as i think some of my armour reviews are pretty good, TA is the benchmark against which I and all other armour reviewers should be measured against he is also THE fastest on the planet for AFV model news i have these on perma bookmark news http://www.perthmilitarymodelling.com/newkitnews.html new reviews http://www.perthmilitarymodelling.com/whatsnew.htm by manufacturer (probably the weakest of the sections, but still pretty good) http://www.perthmilitarymodelling.com/reviews/vehicles/revafv.htm and by vehicle type http://www.perthmilitarymodelling.com/reviews/subject.htm knock yourself out!

MK are also renowned for falling apart just for looking at them the wrong way excellent in detail, yes, but I would suggest not for anyone uncomfortable with indie links, or a small budget Fruils have got a lot better in recent years, even though i am not their biggest fan, but, if you have the budget.... THE best tracks i have seen up close and personal are those by Masterclub of Russia they make a fairly decent sized range of injection mould, indie link tracks I reviewed a few of their T-34 tracks: http://scaleplasticandrail.com/kaboom/index.php/all-things-military-vehicle/135-scale/aftermarket-items/1171-135-t-3476-stz-550mm-early-type-tracks-by-masterclub difference here is that the track pins are all perfectly moulded - and therefore correct - and separate, and no drilling out holes bs like you get with Fruils they also have a fledgling range, but in metal - these are mega pricey and I would suggest probably not great value vs their plastic sets... biggest problem they have is distribution - they are tough to find with a mediocre website; i order direct from Russia - bit quirky, but no problems ultimately hth

your paints are waaaaay more organized than mine!

Rog I was on train before hence brevity of reply! Anyway, you will want to check out PMMS - from memory Terry has done some of usually high standard, in depth reviews of tracks for 251s and the like...

Hi Steve Sorry to hear that news Hope all works out in end Cheers Nick

AFV Club

Slats!! The slats on all the Eduard Emils are grossly oversized An easy fix, but tedious nonetheless

that's pretty special Jeroen I must say

Holy crap! amazing stuff!!!

Not had that for a long time Happy, if rather blurred, memories though

Do you have it Ben? I know Jim built it yonks back...

May I suggest that you wait until the kit is in your hands and then assess? given this is not a mainstream kit, it is a little difficult for others to chime in - if it was a Hassy 109 I could advise even without having that particular kit etc

or you could just buy the DML one i am serious btw

Welcome I am sure this will generate a lot of interest An indication of the medium used and the type of kit it would equate to ie injection mould, short run, resin or vacform would be a pre-requisite for me I have seen 3D printed detail parts for 1/35 armour and was very impressed but would need to know (and see) a lot more before I would contemplate a full 3D printed kit...

Precisely It's no biggie, and God knows I have probably done it myself loads of times, but it does make threads a little easier to read through I think. Right, back to my sashimi...

Guys Can we please not quote previous (loooooong) posts unnecessarily, especially when a simple @Doogs or something similar will often suffice. Thanks Nick

Paul, If my failing eyes could read your italics, then I'd have a stab at a reply... Nick

Nice one Dave What number where the QB exhausts? Are they meant for the Tam kit? Maybe I have missed these before?? Cheers Nick

I was mighty tempted by this kit which is by all accounts excellent, even by today's standards. The one area I gather is lacking in detail are the wheel wells - by his own admission Jerry just did not have any reference for them. This is an issue which has not been resolved to my knowledge, either in this kit or those in smaller scales ie if you have detailed pics looking up into those wells, you are a lucky chap indeed!

Special Hobby are part of the CMK group. And yes if you read Hyperscale you would perhaps be forgiven for thinking that the PCM kit I the only Tempest out this year...

Hi Bevan Beautiful 109, but in future for things like this please add the pictures to the existing thread, rather than starting a new one for exactly the same subject Thanks Nick
