It would have been difficult for me to not help a fellow Tiger tank/crew out of a bad jam by attempting to tow them to safety. Maybe I would’ve been shot.

The Famo's usually used Tow Bars rarely did they use Tow Ropes or chains.

Yup,
Here is one version: https://www.scalemates.com/kits/schumo- ... r--1028430

I have the ones that is all one piece holders unlike this set
Thanks, but I'm after the one piece jobs myself. I'd go nuts putting all those individual hangers in place.

The Wechoe set is just what I want to do But I will be looking around £50 cost for both the panther and Jagdpanther. I can make the holders and pins its just what size chain I use is the issue. Just don't want to be ordering chain and the finding its to big

At over 8 euros post and packing it make the chain extortionately expensive unless you are ordering a lot.

Just the one which was purchased as a v5.3 donor when they first appeared but it is everyone else's favourite because they love the realistic way it's littered with stores all over, tied on with shabby bits of rope, chains (yep, l love chains), just generally grubby and untidy. Actually, l love it but don't tell anyone because l claim to be an Eastern Front fan :wtf:

I'd post a photo but Tapatalk is having a fizzy fit again so....
