There are a series of items which at last are filtering into the catalogues of the styrene manufacturers. Civilian vehicles are often requested, but have, up until recently been the purview of the Resin specialists. Here''s a New announcement from Diopark for a 1/35th Scale release which will be incredibly useful for a huge variety of settings.

Perfect for those Viet-Nam vignettes and dioramas.

These motorcycles are great. They can be used in Middle Eastern settings. I know I've seen a lot of similar bikes back in Beirut.. and here in Egypt.. and Syria and Iraq. So they really are useful.

Thanks for the news.

While it is mostly a "marketing gag" two mover/cleaner companies still USE well-restored Piagos around here. Originally the cars where just driven around but lately they found out that for small jobs the work better than a 2.5to truck and actually use them to remove single items like a stove.
