1/100 civilian vehicles
« on: September 10, 2020, 12:46:31 PM »
Hi all,
I'm looking to add some 15mm civilian cars to my terrain, but it looks like North Star has taken down their range? Anyone know any alternatives selling from Europe/UK? I've found some manufacturers on TMP, but the shipping from the US is killer.

best regards,
Mikkel

Parked or burnt-out wrecks?

Cars or commercial vehicles?

If it's just wrecks have you tried scouting the local Poundland/Euro-store or charity shops for cheap toys that look about right and can be vandalised without remorse.

There are plenty of 'matchbox' diecasts that work well with 15mm figures.
Photos of my recent efforts are at www.littleleadmen.com and https://beaverlickfalls.blogspot.com

I should have specified: parked vehicles, from around the 70’s and 80’s
