DocRob Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 I have a 1/72 Special Hobby Helldiver in my stash, along with an Eduard Big ED PE set. Man that's a frightening sight, but one day, with a potent magnifier.... Cheers Rob 2 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bomber_County Posted December 30, 2021 Share Posted December 30, 2021 Wife bought this as a stocking filler, it’s a nail varnish acrylic stand but fits modelling products perfectly. A good desk organiser with what’s being used on a project…..doesn’t fit liquid cements though………..well, I like it……. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our problem is the dampness with the cold which always seems to make it feel worse. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

belugawhaleman Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 A change from my usual large-scale purchases is this 1/35 Meng A7v ww 1 tank. I remember trying to buy this kit in the past without much luck; everywhere I looked it was sold out. Well, I found this on the Sprue Brothers website. I always wanted to build this somewhat silly - looking, boxy, German, monstrosity of a tank. I remember buying a model ( I think the kit was by Tauro) of this tank years ago and never finishing it. Anyway, this kit looks very good and it even has a complete interior and working tracks. I can't help thinking that this tank reminds me of a two slice toaster. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C'mon, build that toaster and WIP it please. As I have the same one in stash, I'm eager to see how this thing builds up. If I remember right, I added some brass substitutes for the barrel and MG's.

Cheers Rob Looking forward to building this one but I have a big 1/16 t72 to finish and a big Stug will be next. I see that Aber has a set for this model (Aber 35 L-164) but I don't see it available on the sites I usually purchase from. Perhaps Ebay or direct from Aber are options. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DocRob Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 As much as I like helicopters and their mechanics, versatility and abilities in real live, I had not much love for them in large scale. That changed a bit, when I saw the Cobra issued by ICM and I was finally sold, when Special Hobby released the ICM plastic along with resin parts, 3D printed parts, color PE, in- and outside masks and new decals. For a bit more than 40€, I got a complete package of the Cobra, unbeatable. Cheers Rob 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlrwestSiR Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 Nice kit there Rob. I've got the ICM boxing but would've waited and gotten the Special Hobby one instead had I known about it. Carl 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
