Hello all,

I'm ruminating over my latest order to add to my ever increasing stash. On The Way is always my first port of call - and looking for a late-war Panther it appears to be a toss-up between the Italeri Panther AUSF A (D), or the Revell Panther Ausf.G.

I'm leaning towards the Revell - but does anyone have strong views on either?

Many thanks

A

WiPs - scratch Troublesome Truck for Thomas the Tank Engine train set, scratch cardboard Millenium Falcon - both for Son. Massive Doctor Who dio. Really am looking forward to the day I can get near my kit stash!

Any room for Dragon? Not sure I'd recommend the ESCI/Italeri A as it's a scale-down of the ancient Tamiya kit from the late 60s.

Hi David,

Looks like a good article--will read it when I get a moment. OTW was critical of the Dragon efforts - but it looks as if the article sheds more light on the issue.

Cheers!
