1/56 BTR-152

Discussion is always good..

We have a forum link on our site, and you can also post there for discussion as well (and we won't forget!)

I see what your doing here.  If we did the M41 Walker Bulldog, we'd have to do the M42 and M59 since they all use the same chassis and tracks...  Sneaky.

You say sneaky, I say I'm minimizing your work load. 

I'll make a point of visiting the forum, it's always good to see what other people are up to, who knows I might feel less like the odd guy who likes obscure vehicles.

An M-41?

There's a rare Japanese diecast circa 1/50. I found one on the web. The seller wants something in the region of $130. I almost weakened not long ago then realised I couldn't justify that sort of cash and it would require quite a bit of work to transform it from a toy.

[Arlequín]

I don't get why nobody even makes it, even in 20mm, there's only the ex-Archer Models one that is sometimes available from RH Models. You can buy some really obscure vehicles as plastic kits nowadays, but not that.

Oddly enough I've seen a really nice one in 1/6 or 1/18 or whatever it is that matches those Action man type dolls. There are a couple of 1/35 scale renditions but nothing useful.

Oddly absent brigade?

Ferret. The only people I can think of, off hand are Sloppy Jalopy.

AMX-13? Everyman and his dog had them I can only think of the Dinky and Solido diecasts.

LVTP 7?

It's a long list so I won't bore people with it. I'll just be content with what Brent has been kind enough tp offer us.

Merry Christmas to all.

Years ago I had a motorised 1/48th Kit from some Japanese company. Never seen them since. Aurora used to do some nice models (or so my happy memories of yesteryear inform me), which may or may not have included the M41.

LVTP 7?

Sloppy Jalopy have this 'coming soon' apparently.

I felt the same, but tried to limit it to what might be of interest to others. I'd likely find your list interesting in itself. While the hard work is churning out the model, it can't be easy wondering "Will this sell?" every time you think of producing something. People will often chip in with "I'd buy that for a dollar", so some straw poll of who wants what can be developed. Obviously producing a want list doesn't commit someone to making it, so there's no harm done.

Merry Christmas to all.

... and of course to you and yours my friend!

Sloppy Jalopy doing the LVTP eh? Will this be the gift that keeps on giving? Get it one year and you're still trying to put the bloody thing to gether a year later?

Sad but true...

BTR-40 is in progress.  I should have both models out for printing by the send of the week.  I can probably had these off to JTFM for casting by Mid January.

Always a challenge to figure out initial numbers needed, so if you want one to two, please sound off so I can get a rough count!

I hadn't planned to buy these direct, but what the hell. Two (each) initially for me then please.  

[carlos marighela]

3 X BTR 152, 1 X BTR-40 please.

[CompanyB]

Direct, through Brigade Games, or through Wargames Command Post.  It's all the same really, as wholesale and direct orders come through the same stockpile.

I'm just interested in how many I should be getting to fill initial demand, as restocking usually takes time.  That and if folks are wanting these in groups of two, etc, then maybe I need to get enough for platoon deals.


Thanks!

1 of each please for the moment.

Cheers,

Helen

[Col.Stone]

I definately want a 152 or three

Zil 157 - Everywhere. The classic Soviet truck.

I've made that one, at the caster now.

[CompanyB]

Masters back from the print shop!  I'll get some better pics done, then it's off to casting.
