Yeah zeke i think french is the way to go, as the figures look pretty good i'm thinking a small diorama based on the maginot line, i've got some old dragons teeth tank barriers kicking around in my stash so i could use a few of them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Antoine Posted July 6, 2007 Share Posted July 6, 2007 Well, I'm wondering: Do you, you Brits, are really interrested by this kind of kit, I mean, a French vehicle like this one, with nearly no historical background? And why? Even myself, as a French, I'm not really interrested in buying it for the moment (Maybe latter). Just wondering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wondering. hi antoine, i think the interest is in the fact that the germans used them and in many different roles, also the sheer amount the french produced and used is interesting cheers pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antoine Posted July 6, 2007 Share Posted July 6, 2007 I must confess that I didn't know anything about this vehicle before Tamiya's announcement. At least, the good thing is that I'll have to document myself. By the way, for those who are interested, this will be soon available: You can usualy find all the Trackstory at Blast Models, certainly the best armour specialized model shop in Paris (And maybe in France).

Hepster Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 I think its a long neglected subject, top marks to Tamiya for doing it, minus several million for the UK pricing. That said, it will sell by the crate. The obvious conversion is the German 37mm SP version, and Telford will be awash with them come November...

seanrgb Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 Makes a change from damn Tiger tanks Thats why I tend to go for the Modern Stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seanrgb Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 And what's wrong with Tiger Tanks eh! Sean? just too many kits dedicated to them in my opinion ... be nice to see more Modern stuff .. like British trucks and transporters More newer Tanks as well would be nice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jager Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 It looks great. just love this early war armour, (Please, pretty please Tamiya San can we have the Vickers Light Tank etc. ? ? ). Ordered one today, already have the early Verlinden French priest and old lady with the bottle of wine, a lot of dio possibilities. Verlinden also do some French figures, but I think their quality has dropped of late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
