1/56th scale ONTOS models?
« on: December 20, 2018, 05:46:25 PM »
I'm reading the fascinating 'Hue 1968' by Mark Bowden, and enjoying it.  The crucial advantages provided by a few ONTOS self-propelled recoilless rifles in the reconquest of the city is played up quite thoroughly.  I'm interested to add a model ONTOS to my collection.  Could you direct me to which manufacturers I should investigate, please? 

Thanks in advance for any pointers.

Company B make the Ontos model in the BG store. It’s been OOP for quite some time but the owner is a member of LAF so you could always ask him about availability.
