Just finishing this very kit.
Shame its been spoilt by the poor instructions provided, in fact had i not had the 5T Refueller version i'd never have known.
Buy an etch folding tool - it'll be invaluable.
You'll also be left with a few bits off of 1 of the Sprue A (you get 3 x Sprue A)
Part A25 x2 aren't used - use part GP10 x2 - rear light clusters.
Not a build for the beginner.

That's great, thank you for the link to Shapeways. I can see an eight wheel version [Revell 03044] which means that I can now go on a search for one. It is a left-hand drive version but that shouldn't be a big problem to scratchbuild the parts to make it a right-hand drive.
cheers,
MikeThe 8x8 isn't in current production, but they do come up on 2nd hand sites like Kingkit & Modelsforsale.com.

I did similar , thought i could 'convert' to UK spec.
in the end i just started building Bundeswehr fleet of trucks and armour.
The Revell range in 1/35 are great, and its quite a broad range.
The HobbyBoss trucks are the bees knees(if a lot of faff) with buckets of detail.
Next up for me is the Man 5T refueller, followed by the Man 7t LARS, both by Hobbyboss.

any pics/updates on this at all?

Thumbs up for those. Particularly like the Unimog Ambulance. I really don't know why, but the Unimog has always appealed to me.

The Bundeswehr is an intresting topic, it could be great collection in the future.
These 2 are just my most recent completed builds. I have almost all the Revell 1/35 BW kits and a few others too already built and a few more yet to be build.

It’s nice to see some engineering equipment.
On a real pontoon what are the hinges actually made of?
no idea and the only footage i've seen isn't all that good. I suspect it's a piano type hinge on all 3 hinge points.
-
Not being one to make a kit oob or as per the easy path i decided to convert/alter these 2
Both Revell recent re-releases, both 1/35. Now does anyone know of a decent scale hinge, cos the tamiya tape hinges are frankly a pain and look rubbish.

Does anyone know of anyone making 1/35 Leopard pioneerpanzer bits?
Dozer blade, telescopic crane arm, solid towing bar - 2 piece, construction buckets.
Looked in all my usual places, MBK, LeoClub, Accurate Armour, but there seems to be a hole in ( admittedly small ) niche area of interest.
ideally looking for U.K. supplier.

If that is all, just cut them off?
I've done that on a version i did 20 (ish) years ago when it was 1st released.
Easier said than done.

Just starting my F-4F. Random, but which intakes did you use? The instructions seem to be wrong. Ta.
