And elephant!

by **Rad_Schuhart** » Tue Jan 22, 2019 9:10 am

And a T72 too! Those are some great news.

I dont want/need more tanks, but I am really willing to grab that schwimmwagen. Now we only need the price and date...

Nice! Alternative for Hooben Elefant and DeAgostini T-72

Oh wow.

A T72 and schwimmwagen.

Thank you for the wallet emptying information Mr Lo_Thar.

T72, new M16 (2.4GHz) and 1/6 FT-17 which shouldn't be much bigger than one of the modern 1/16 tanks?

You wanted an M16 :thumbup:

by **RobW** » Tue Jan 22, 2019 2:55 pm

Already got one - I picked one up cheap(ish) off Amazon when I found out the silly prices they were going for on Ebay!

Ok, how much for the metal 1/6 King Tiger and who do I give my money to?

NEVERMIND! $13,000 for the regular Tiger I means EFFFFFFFFF THAT!Z

Nope

More or less:

I wonder if the 2.4 MFU in the new M16 will be a straight swap for the old one. :thumbup:

Depending on how good it is it could kill sales of the Elmod board.

What do you mean? I have a pair of the old M16's. Are you talking about if the new M16 board sells as a spare?

by **jarndice** » Tue Jan 22, 2019 4:29 pm

Why not? Everything else is up for sale. :lolno:

I have an Elmod board in my M16 and I like it very much but it was not cheap so if I were in the market for another M16 I would check out the price of a used one and the price of a new MFU.

by **Son of a gun-ner** » Tue Jan 22, 2019 4:31 pm

Ahh, looks like I'll have to keep my eyes peeled and get one if they become available, then try it for a swap in one of my standard M16's. Thanks for that :thumbup:

Good morning,
I've an M16 and an M3 build slated for one of these years soon so this is very interesting news. The Swimming Kubelwagen looks neat and as I have one of those Hooben Elefant kits, I'll be having a close look at the lower hull from Torro\Taigen as well to see how it might match up. Wonderful new things coming around for us all.
regards,
Painless

I find the Schwimmwagen most exciting. Depending on the price, it could open a whole new builds chapter :thumbup:

by **tomhugill** » Tue Jan 22, 2019 4:44 pm

The elefant looks like a built up hooben, the wheel covers and tracks look exactly the same.

by **jarndice** » Tue Jan 22, 2019 4:56 pm

I would be more interested in a 1/16 DUKW it would be good of itself but a bit of cut and shut would make a working Stalwart far more doable. :thumbup:

OK, so twice the length of a KT hull but with no overhanging fragile bits. Not much bigger if you include the gun!
