Title: 28mm Bus
Post by: Merlon on August 04, 2025, 05:17:33 PM

In the 28mm skirmish fraternity, appropriate scale civilian vehicles are like hens teeth. I was asked to build or source a "bus".
Found this one on eBay for £4.29 plus postage, the response I got was "But it is German". Well yes, it is a German Fire Service bus, for carrying additional crew - beggars can't be choosers. Think the objection was because it is right hand drive. Fair enough I shall keep it for myself and give it a new paint job.
Fresh decals will follow, when I figure out something suitable.

So true -- buses are rare in 28mm! Who makes the bus? Maybe others of us can find it lurking about on ebay or some other place...?
