Title: 20mm Scale Ram Kangaroos
Post by: PAULSPENCE on November 28, 2016, 04:37:54 PM
Bonjour Chaps,

Always wanted to get some of these for Normandy but unsure which ones to get.

I know that SHQ, Britannia and Frontline do them but which ones are best?

Being lazy I'd like something easy to build and being careful with my cash I'd like cheap vehicles too!

On top of which I'd want to be able to buy crews for them.

Your advice would be gratefully received.

Cheers,

Paul

AB does a Kangaroo crew. Milicast also makes two versions. I don't know about cheap and easy to build part but you can't beat the quality.

If plastic is an option, Italeri has a quick build set with 2 per box st 1/72.

Thats the normal Kangaroo based on the Priest, the Ram Kangaroo is based on the Ram tank. S&S released a conversion for the Armourfast Sherman just the other week.

Of course, sorry about that Paul!

Re 20mm crew for Ram Kangeroos - AB Figures do 2 sets - the best 20mm WW@ figures IMHO.
