THE BLACK BARON

Post by HERMAN BIX »

Went to get some thinner, paint and primer from Hobbyrama today during a break in the Hockey tournament that my Daughter was aging out of today.
And of course during the usual wander, I saw a truly magical thing................

Takom have released a Limited Edition 16th scale Michael Wittmann figure :O
I did not know they had this on offer.
I have an Otto Carius figure to do, but I need a Tiger to put him in.
Now I have a Wittmann................same scenario applies :problem:
Or, I try to backdate him to an earlier vehicle.

Just happy to have an opportunistic chance to secure such an iconic figure replica.

Oh wow, that's cool.
Can you not just have turrets on display. Like mini dioramas, with the figures either beside or in?

Thats a great idea & one I had never considered.
I do have an old Tiger turret, and that could work.....................

That looks like a nice figure. I have thought about buying him at some point. Looking forward to see what he looks like out of the box and ho he paints up. yes, you will need a Tiger 1 to put him in, its the only option for this figure sadly, it can't be displayed any other way, that's official :haha:
