Hey Mates;
Scratchin my head with this possable idea. I have scale drawings and referance material. I thought that maybe this would be a neat build. Tell me what ya think.





I think accurate armor has a kit, but Im not savy to RESIN full kits. And the $$ is prohibitative. I think the plastic conversion efforts would be much more do-able and gratafying. Todd

Mike;
Hey dude. Now theres a thought. I guess ya gotta be in the "KNOW" to be "KNOWN". I didnt know Bronco was going to release one. But then again
I've been waiting with baited breath for a Bronco 17pdr and havn't seen one yet.
Seen the reviews, but none of my web shops have it I would really like to purchase the 17pdr to go with my Centaur Gun Tractor. It TOOK till dooms day.
to finally obtain my SdKfz. 221 from Bronco Thanx for the update. Todd

I'm working my way thru something like 40 images Bronco have just sent me of the Gaz, Maultier and, yes, the Archer, which were sent directly from Bronco and they can be seen here - in one handy 'block':

Well with that GREAT POST and insight, I have totally changed my plans. Now I will go the BRONCO route. It looks like a VERY promossing kit.
Sometimes, I guess waiting and wishing, does PAY OFF With that kit the conversion efforts are not needed, and looks to become a very accurate build.
THANX to both of YOU.
