Hello
As a suggestion see mine 1/72 M60 Blazer from ESCI.

I fail to see how your build would benefit. The only thing this has to do with the 7A is that it is a M60 Blazer. I have already completed a Blazer in 1:35.


Your topic is titled "IDF M60 Blazer" so Rui posted one. It's your fault for not being clear.

Guess we should read the threads, before replying. I don't hold anything against him. I simply made the statement that this thread had matured into a 7A variant.

Will the admin please change the title of this thread to IDF Magach 7?

For what it's worth, the MAGACH 6B Batash is based on the M60A1/ A3, while the 7 and 7C do use the M60 (MAGACH 6 Mem) turret. There were rumors that some M48 (MAGACH 3, 5) were used, but I've never seen proof. I'm a little late into this thread, but I agree that AEF isn't worth touching. I have the Legend kits, but have yet to build one. Got sidetracked long ago on Shermans.

I'm not too concerned about the turret. As you know, one is included in the Legends set.

Hello

I read the topic and thread.
No problem at all for me.
MAGACH 7 i think is the last from M60 family use by IDF.
Some where sold to Turkey ( or all) with some changes made.
A interesting job to search and do a M60 from Turkey that come from Israel.
Keep up with good work.

Kind regards
Rui

ps: mine is Magach 6 (base in the M60 ).

I was happy with a simple conversion set, but one fielded by Turkey would definitely flex my research muscle.
