Interesting German vendor....

Post by Dietrich »

I have just found this guys site in Germany and it looks very interesting..
http://www.an-bri-rc-modellbau.de/de_DE

He seems to make loads of accessories for our 1/16 scale tanks and they seem very well priced.... For instance if you look in column 3 from this link under
"Accessories for Heng Long Panzer 1:16 models" "Tiger 1 accessories on page 3" the 'Exhaust Flap' that has been painstakingly made by a couple of members on here is 2.50 Euros with
NO VAT.....which seems a good price for metal which works and is described as...
"We use as an alloy material which is harder than tin, but not as brittle as zinc or zamak."
The IR night sight assembly is 9.50 Euros.... as is the commanders AA MG with 2 versions to choose from.. one with the spider web type of sight.
.
They also make conversion kits (for the AA East Wind, Whirlwind and the Sig 33 amongst others) Scale figures, small arms, detonators, wine bottles and scale ball point pens!!......
I presume that they make their own metal parts because they offer a casting service which will make designs that you require !!.
.
I have no personal knowledge of the company, but the products look very good indeed.

I have gotten stuff of them. They are quite unique but a bit rough and you will need to work in it a bit to get the details. Most of his stuff are pretty unique and very reasonably priced.

It also looks like if the gun actually fired...it would tear the heck out of the deck of that Panzer IV :haha:
Someone should think about mounting it atop a King Tiger 8O

Good Evening,
I've used An-Bri-RC for unique parts for several builds. He has all kinds of fascinating stuff on his site neatly set up by vehicle or type. Easy to navigate even tho' it is in German. The last thing I've gotten so far was a beautiful working hatch for the 'Crackerbox Palace'
regards,
Painless

As everyone say's an interesting site, he supplied me with an early Tiger 1 starting handle and mounting clamps and 3 fire extinguishers and brackets, the detail is amazing although a word of warning, the extinguishers and brackets are plastic and very flimsy BUT they do look good especially with the PEDDINGHAUS decals, The downside,DHL lost the packet in Stuttgart so these heroes hunted it down for me and after two months I got the goods, conduct above and beyond in my opinion, certainly going back for more. :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: shaun
I think I am about to upset someone :haha:

They don't look "very good" to me; within five seconds on his website, I found a Tiger mudflap that he made the wrong way around.
There are hundreds of good photos of Tiger mudflaps and none of them look like what he's selling.

I’ve used them, the bits are good for the price, once trimmed up with a knife/file and painted they look really good.

Got my Panther Rockets off him, they are spot on, right down to the woodgrain in the metal casting on the crates.

Good Morning,
Until Jesus Christ ( or your Deity of preference ) starts making tank parts and selling them online, I'm prepared to take the best and work on the rest but use them all if needed. I'm glad we have options or as we wolves like to say, "Take the meat and leave the bone"
