Those Japanese soldiers would work really well for other settings as well. I can imagine them as Steampunk soldiers, or in a fantasy setting like Numenera. Ah, the same could be said of the rest of the K47 range, even if having them in WWII looks a bit off. :)

Still waiting on that German stuff being released. Hopefully we don't have to wait till next year when the next expansion is out. :(

Some elderly 1/100 Macross kits extracted from the archaeological dig.

Destroid Tomahawk.

Destroid Defender


PSC Panzer 38(t) for scale.

Correction, Heer 46's Katzchen still doesn't have an engine with the second version.



They say its under the floor. ...In a world where engines are as thick as shoeboxes apparently. I continue to be bemused.

What is going on with the MGs too?  They look like lego guns....

They look like chest freezers.

Die Waffenkammer's doesn't need all the gap filling either, and comes with crew.

There are three tiny reactors that power the katzchen with unobtanium.  The freezers are sheilding for the reactors! :`
Remember the patina!

 Most odd, a bit of a clanger in his otherwise excellent range.

- I'm afraid at this point I'd have to say don't hold your breath, just keep asking those who already make them.
 Are there any 3D files on Shapeways/Thingiverse that could be re-sized? They'd certainly need re-detailing (& replacement tracks), but it'd probably be the only way to get one (other than kitbashing a Tamiya 1/48 Hetzer).

  Looks like the JTFM Lowe has finally ascended the to-do pile, looks very nice combo of CAD (turret & tracks) & skilfull oild-school scratch-building for all of you in the market for monster tanks :)

Heer46 have a Krupp-Steyr Waffenträger coming out in February- March next year.






It looks to be a better fair than their previous Katzchen (Rubicon helped, I guess as they themselves are moving into resin). There doesn't appear to be any detail beneath or inside the turret; presumably as the gun's covering it up. However fitting the crew in there could be a real pain if they're not included with the kit (making an enclosed crew compartment in the field like they did with the US Tank Destroyers , or maybe a mesh screen like the Germans, may be necessary).

Something for all those (dozens) of Italian players out there too:

 I saw these today, the Waffentrager looks good -  the crew fit issues aren't too horrific, given how much you'd be able to see a 'head, shoulders & torso' approach would probably be fine.
