Got my first batch of Aussies, the USMC mortar crew and the NVA command today. Bloody great sculpts. Can't wait to get some paint on them having just finished an NVA section (oddly enough social isolation is doing wonders for my painting mojo). Top notch figures!

I received the 2 Full Metal Jacket packs and 3 packs of NVA on Monday. They are really nice figures.

I have some Landskneckts on my painting table so when they are finished Vietnam comes next.

Todays release.......and we only have a few so get in quick.

Centurion Tank =1/50 SCALE RESIN WITH SMALL METAL PARTS.

This vehicle represents a Centurion used by ANZAC forces in the VIETNAM WAR. The model comes with elements of stowage such as 30 cal MG ammo cans and fuel cans. A typical mix of Nato and US cans. It also comes with examples of the shells used.

It also comes with the spot light which can either be fixed into operational position or stowed in the rear stowage cage as shown.

The front section of the mudguards were very often removed as can these. Also not no side skirts.

In the shop now. Check the Vietnam room.

Nice, clean looking model. I like that a lot. :-*

 Now do I order direct or wait for Matt to get one in stock? Hmm, decisions decisions.

We have low stock as the production facility is shut for the duration (always wanted to use that WW2 phrase but NEVER thought I would be able) so if you want one do it now or be prepared to wait.  ;)

For those interested, 'Jungle Tracks' is a very good account of Aussie Centurions in 'Nam.

I noted on the web page that it comes with MG ammo cans (very useful).

Any chance of some 0.50" HMG cans for the M48 etc?
