Nice pictures who makes the Unimog truck shown with the Brits ?

Sorry should have also said if the product was designed around the packaging then I would have expected Mongoose to go for 10mm or 15mm or 20mm smaller product smaller box everyones a winner. Martin

The problem is with Mongoose choosing 1/65th scale or "TRUE" 28mm as opposed to "Heroic" 28mm it kind of restricts things for the gamer who wants to use other vehicles or figure units that are around now that Mongoose don't or wont make in the near future which kind of makes me want to avoid the...

It' looks like a Geppard on a Leopard1A4 hull, twin radar controlled 35mm Orliken cannons and very nasty. Designed to chew Mig's and Sukhoi's for breakfast. Geppard together with Roland SAM a lethal combination.

Have to be honest and say I prefer the old picture figures the skin tone and shading looks better and cleaner. Just my opinion.

Crucibal_Orc, Try TAG for your 1/56th scale Warrior or Imprint Models for a 1/50th scale version. S&S Models do Landrovers they are 1/56th they even do the Landi Wolf with all the weapons .50 Cal, GPMG and LAW 80 as used in Afghanistan. Sloppy Jalopy will soon produce a metal 1/56th Landi so I...

O.K. This is what I have been able to find in the last 20 minutes the F-35 was thought to be 3,300 lbs over weight for the carriers it cost the Pentagon $7bn to shave of some of the weight on the STOVL version this involved 600 changes to the design. Analysts working for the Pentagon still think...

DM it was in the "Times" November 06 if memory serves. Sounded daft enough to be true but I live in hope I am wrong. But my father having experienced MOD procurement systems and methods and from what he has told me it could wel be.

Not sure what the RN propose to do about the F-35K? they are supposed to get as some bright spark at MOD has worked out that the aircraft is to heavy as it stands for the proposed length of flight deck on the two future carriers the RN is supposed to be getting. I have read that the current...

Because the price spiralled out of control Geoff Hoon wanted some pay back for keeping the project going RAF realised they no choice of anything else unless they played ball so agreed to have the cannon removed in production batches 2 and 3. First batch has the 27mm because it was to late to...

rafgunner how common is it for a Warrior commander to dismount with the rifle section ? and how does he dismount via the turret hatch or can he get out via the troop compartment rear door? just curious. Martin

Much better, but way to much black in the DPM and not enough green. Just my opinion.

Lets be realistic, if the quality of prepainted miniatures was achievable to the quality boasted about originally then don't you think the likes of Tamiya, Dragon (O.K. they do 1/72nd WW2 and modern Armour as prepaints but not their figures), Revell would have jumped on the band wagon by now...

I don't think Bob and Jim would go in for group hugs more like "Sod em lets go down the pub and get bladdered". Then flip a coin to see who goes to see the bank manager in the morning to explain.
