British FV432M in 1/48 or 1/50 scale
« on: June 23, 2019, 09:54:15 PM »

Does anyone do the hubble 432 APC in either 1/48 or 1/50 scale?

I know Butler Models do a 3D printed model, but ideally I would like one in resin.

Nope. Closest would be the Sloppy Jalopy version in 1/56.
Em dezembro de '81
Botou os ingleses na roda
3 a 0 no Liverpool
Ficou marcado na história
E no Rio não tem outro igual
Só o Flamengo é campeão mundial
E agora seu povo
Pede o mundo de novo

I thought that might be the case, any plastic kits in 1/48?

Just ordered 4 of them, so painting these models will take me back to the mid 1980s when I was based in Germany and participating in multi national exercises such as Globe Trotter.

Despite always preferring heli lifts to the bumpy old ride in a 432, it was always better than no transport at all, particularly given that I was usually lugging a GPMG and a bergan full of 7.62 ammo  :(
