Oh my, I’m was just browsing for tanks again. Just to see what made its way to the market. Now I have that guy on preorder from Modellbau Seidel and I already have a 1/35 th scale model kit from adv club in the stash too. Although it is the later Australien one. We‘ll see.

Good for you! It's also good to see you active again, Soeren.
I shall have to wait until my piggy bank (Sparschwein) is brimming with spare cash, before I can order one.

Indeed, Adam. I really must have a clear-out soon, and this will hopefully cater for some of the outlay.
I've a Tamiya Tiger that's surplus, plus a metal edn. Torro KT, Taigen 'metal' Tiger 1, and more besides. One day, I must draw up a list.
I noticed that was someone was looking for a Tamiya T-03 lately. I think I have
two of them (in good condition), although one's in the Tiger.
Our local Post Office has closed (permanently) lately, and that has been a wee disincentive. Then- there's that soul-sapping Winter-lethargy...

Hey there and thanks for the warm welcome back. The pre order was confirmed now. This could turn into a nice summer project. What I hoping for though is ABER to come up with a upgrade set shortly after this one is send out to us.

I know they show out of stock, but for those looking to do an Aussie version of the Cent, these figures would be a must !

Australian tankies in Vietnam wore black berets so you would be better off looking for a British figure in a summer uniform and converting that.

For crew-yep-all day long, but for other soldiers and equipment these guys are really good!
No doubt with a bit of creative genius, one could be repostioned to be a rider.
