Not soon enough by the look of things. 11 hours ago, Murdo said: Wolfgang and his blue bratty wagon from Soltau is a must. He could find any "Tactical Hide" anywhere, then parked right there and sounded his horn for business. In two different hides the RSM sent me to tell him to ... umm... Kindly go away. Remarkably he suddenly couldn't speak English or German. According to the (very loud and furious) Tara, his continued presence was all my fault. I couldn't shoot Wolfgang though as half the British Army would be after my blood (okay, and possibly the German authorities too) and anyway his bright blue van would be hard to camouflage. It did cross my mind though as I looked back at His Majesty, the RSM glaring murderously at me from the hide. A friend sent me this; 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Evans Posted November 13, 2016 Share Posted November 13, 2016 Wolfgang was a legend. My memory of him was his van turning up after we had been told that the Stalwarts couldn't get through to refuel us. I see this as an opportunity for a range of conversions/boxings. Mortar carrier, Wombat, 438, Bar minelayer, Cymbeline? My preference would be a 434. Phil 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Posted November 13, 2016 Share Posted November 13, 2016 I was talking to Pocketbond yesterday, and IIRC they were talking about a Feb/March 2017 release date, although I wouldn't take that as gospel, as my memory is 'orrible 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg B Posted November 13, 2016 Share Posted November 13, 2016 You need some yellow handbags. Lots of them. Always remember 2 of my mates getting hauled over by the GCP in Nienburg whilst they conducted a road test with some non standard helmets on. Apparently Darth Vader and one of his Storm trooper's driving a "Skip" through the centre of town was not what the locals expected to see Wolfgang, there is a book in there of his exploits. I will not confirm the rumour that if you were short of cash a Jerry of Diesel would equate to a couple of Bratties and a Frikkie. But it was a very cold day near the end of a long exercise 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard E Posted November 13, 2016 Share Posted November 13, 2016 A kit which offers a lot of conversion opportunities for Takom and the after market manufacturers but I wonder how many of them would be commercially viable. Hopefully it will be sufficiently popular to persuade them to produce a family of current specification CVR(T) wagons as well. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still welcome a 1.35 kit but the KFS will look veryt good when done. Their engine is a model in its own right! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
