Looking for 15mm First Indochina War vehicles
«

I'm having some trouble sourcing 15mm vehicles for a new First Indochina War project. I'm specifically looking for M-24 Chaffees, M36B2 tank destroyers, M29C Weasel cargo carriers and LTV4 Amtracs. Annoyingly, it seems Flames of War have produced most of what I needed at one time or another but now everything seems to be out of print (at least in the UK).
I have found a few of the vehicles at Butlers Printed Models, but I'm not sure how good the quality of the 3d prints will be? (

)
Also, QRF has a Chaffee... but it looks kind of ugly unfortunately

If anyone has any opinions on what I've found, or even better recommendations for quality models, I'd love to hear them!

I was going to recommend Battlefront/Flames of War (I'd avoid the others if you can).
Maybe scour online stores that mght still have a stock of Battlefront miniatures. Not really helpful, sorry.

Battlefront are likely to reissue theirs fairly shortly, as they're in the process of re-doing their 'late war' ranges. That said, they didn't have the M29 Weasel (in any form) in their range previously. QRF is currently the only option for that model AFAIK. It's a nice model. Almost all my other Indochina vehicles are from Battlefront.
Probably not of interest to you, but BF do still have the waterline version of the LVT4 in their catalogue

Oh that's good to hear. Fingers crossed they put out all the models I need. Believe me, I've been searching online stores high and low for old Battlefront stock!
