But at almost $800, gonna give it a hard pass. ….Unless they want to provide one to a website moderator that’s willing to write up a review. 😇 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's weird, because I was thinking, as I was looking at the Tamiya 1/35 kit this past week, that a big-scale kit of the subject would be cool...then it happened! Anyway, not sure if I'll get it right away as I have enough kits as it is...but cool! More wheeled subjects please! I really like Copper State Models emphasis on armored cars....especially WW 1 subjects, and I would like to see these in larger scales. I've had little time to devote to building My kits due to health problems and added responsibilities lately, but I do enjoy collecting kits and what I call a "golden age" of large scale kit availability. I hope I can present a finished build soon. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think folks who thought the 1/32 Revell kit was too big will be all over this one. It is impressive to see Border sticking to the scale though. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is impressive to see Border sticking to the scale though. There's the usual to-and-fro about this on TOS ... For my part I got back into scale modelling back in 2008 - wanting to build German WWII armour in a larger format than when I was a kid playing around. I started with 1/35 ... and then I went looking for comparative aircraft only to find they were all in 32nd scale ... Apparently Tamiya is to blame for 35th scale being a 'thing' ... The real question is ... can Border group the obvious "sets" together to help them get market traction ... Apparently their Fw-190A-6 was a winner! Kate, Val, Zero A6M2 ... F4F, Dauntless, Devastator Mk.V Spitfire ... Fw.190A-4 ... Bf.109F-4 ... P.51B He.111, Do.17z, Ju.87B, Ju.88, Bf.110C ... Spitfire Mk.Ia, Hurricane Mk.I Mk.IXc Spitfire ... Fw.190A-5/6/7/8 ... Bf.109G ... P51D The list goes on obviously ... but they ARE churning them out at a decent rate! ... I'm not sold yet ... but if they keep kicking goals it might be hard to avoid finally getting scale aircraft that MATCH my armour scale.
