The new release list from Bronco arrived the other day. Unfortunately due to a number of work commitments I haven't been able to post it until now. Late, but VERY impressive...
Three new releases for next month, two of which are absolutely unique in styrene and the third following a trend the company began a while back. All release are 1/35th scale:
In figures, once again the PLA gets attention with:
CB35078 - PLA Marines Force Soldier On 60th National Day Parade.
Onto the other releases:
CB35071 British 17/25 pdr anti-tank gun ‘PHEASANT’ .
CB35099 GAZ-69 Anti-Tank Vehicle 2P26 'Baby Carriage'
Now, a word of explanation. The Pheasant was a stop-gap measure to bring the 17 Pounder AT gun into the field in greater numbers by adapting a 25 Pounder carriage to take the gun. It was never a particular succesful conversion as it was difficult to tow due to a rather unbalanced center of gravity. The release of this model is INCREDIBLY welcome as it fills another gap in the limited range of towed British artillery.
The GAZ-69 contains another unique element - the first AT-1 "Snapper" Wire-guided AT missile in styrene.
Our thanks to Bronco for the Update!
