The Oberst is an AB model, the 4 Grenadiere are by CP models while the E-10 is a Cromwell kit.
You can see the infantry in more detail here:

I bet that's a phrase that didn't get used much during the war in regards to a German officer. lol

"Aww... would you look at him. He's so cute, he looks so commanding. Oooh, now he's pointing a gun at us and shouting something."

The kits are very good! If you order one, send him greetings from me!
They also have a very good Maus and E-100 (even with twin 88mm AA gun) in 1/48, highly recommended.

I just ordered a Maus and Mine Rammer from them last week.  Bit pricey but they got just about everything ever made in and all in 1/48.

Yes! And rightly so! The E-10 featured a unique hydraulic suspension that enabled the tank to lower itself into a VERY low shooting position.
My model is in the shoot mode = lowered to about 1m overall high! Spot this... :)
My second E-10 (soon) will be in the drive mode to emphasize the versatility of the E-10.

Was it's design taken by the Swiss to make their S tank?  It sounds like they are pretty much the same vehicle in allot of respects.

Brian

PS
Agis you ever seen this bad boy before?  This is the SS designed Black Wolf.

:o :oDid not know it, tell us more about it!

Please note that this is a totally fictitious interpretation of a rather sketchy tank concept (no concept, no plans/blueprints, no hard and fast facts; in fact, even less than for the Panzer IX and X, for which there are at least concept artworks, although those were in all probability a propaganda stunt). I have only seen it crop up on the internet, and I cannot remember any of the more reputable scientific researchers on the topic (Spielberger, Doyle, Trojca, maybe Restayn, too) ever comment on this.

I am dubious, however, that this would have passed Heereswaffenamt scrutiny. Given that the planning was pretty fixed on the E-series, I won“t dwell on the actual feasibility of the project.

Chris pretty much hit it on the head but if you want to know more check out the link below.   Be sure to check out all the articles from the home page that have to do with weapon and vehicle designs and rarities.

There is some crazy stuff on it to so just thicken that hide a bit and push through the shit.

Since this site doesn“t cite any sources, please excuse me remaining skeptical. :) Sounds right up the creek with the SS dirty nuke to me (ie, theoretically possible, but as of now unsubstantiated by any hard facts).

It still makes for a cool Weird War tank though. :D
