1/35 scale models
WHEELED SCOUT
Tamiya’s lovely M8 Greyhound returns after a gap of more than 20 years, along with a bevy of extras for its ‘Combat Patrol Set’.
OFFICIALDOM ON WHEELS
Revell’s WOT 6 is a direct re-box of ICM’s splendid kit, with the sole change being a new decal sheet.
CLASH OF THE TITANS
ICM has combined its Pz.Kpfw. VI Ausf.B (35363) and T-34/85 (35367) in a Battle of Berlin combo that’s less than 75% of the combined cost of the separate kits.
QUICK-FIRE ARTILLERY
French artillery seems to attract less attention than other nation’s subjects, so this Mle 1897 from IBG will be popular among military kit aficionados.
MANNED FLAK COMBO
This neat little set from Dragon combines the firm’s 2cm FlaK 38 (6288) with its superb crew figures (6368) to provide arguably the best diorama package currently available for this type of anti-aircraft gun.
OFFICE APOCALYPSE
In the event of a zombie infestation there will… always be one that wears a tie, and this pigeon-toed member of the undead has a suitably ravaged head and neck, while still keeping the inevitable office name badge clipped to his jacket.
NUCLEAR CLEAN-UP
This is the second boxed set from ICM inspired by the recent TV series Chernobyl, and marries the firm’s superb AC-40-137A (1986) Soviet Fire truck (35519), four newly tooled figures (available separately as 35623) and a three-sided display backdrop.
CROATIAN ARMOUR
Modellers wanting unusual schemes for their MiniArt T-55s will find plenty of choice from Star’s Croatian Army selection.
DIVISIONS, DECISIONS
A broad array of divisional markings was applied to the German Wehrmacht’s Panzer units during World War Two, but these 1/35 decals from FC Modeltips (a sub-brand of FC Model Trend) contains a wide selection and a guide to when the symbols were used.
'BRICK' BOOTS
Modellers seeking extra refinement for Airfix’s recent 1/72 Blackburn Buccaneer S.2C will find these resin wheels from Eduard a suitable substitution for the kit representations.
