Hi Everybody;

Yea these are on e-bay, panzer shop kits are real nice but quite expensive. The Free Rocket Over Ground would be great in A Dio; with crewmen prepping it for launch,and a support truck next too it. I wonder how it compares with the old 1/32 Luna kit, Nice Stuff---But too Rich for my Blood.

CHEERS; MIKE.

I visited the Panzer Shop this morning and you would be surprised at all the great stuff they offer!

Full resin kits and conversion sets as well! Not for the fate of heart either.

It's good to see more modeling options. Yes, resin kits aren't cheap, but that they exist at all is a very good thing, else we wouldn't be able to enjoy these kits.

I really want one of these 2k6 frogs

Roger that Bill. I have also learned from my resin collecting/building in the 90's that if you have the patience, we will eventually see it in plastic. Especially the way manufacturers now a days are cranking out obscure topics. I had the ol' Cromwell T-28. Now I have two variants in plastic and a T-35 to boot! Who'd a thunk! Patience my brothers from other mothers, We will soon see them in plastic.

Ah - yes!! and here is the issue. The plastic manufacturers have got together and invented technology that allows them to gauge if someone has 95% finished a scratchbuild or there are sufficient resin kits tucked away in stashes unbuilt. Only when those conditions have been met will a plastic kit arrive.

So I will do my bit and stockpile a lot of resin kits. I really like Panzershop kits. They make some great kits - I have their ODAZ trailer on the way! I expect everyone to shout out thanks when trumpeter makes one in plastic.

Well, as a Cold War fan I'm really pleased that this one is out; however, costs and the skill required may possibly deter me! It wouldn't surprise me, if, in due course, someone like Trumpeter eventually tackle the whole range of FROGs - including hopefully, the FROG 1 on the IS 3 chassis. We can but dream, but stranger things have happened over the last couple of years. Well done Panzershop anyway.

As far as costs are concerned I look at it this way. Is it worth 3 or 4 kits? Or would you rather have the 4 kits instead of the one you want KNOWING it's only available in resin.

They have some very awesome looking trucks so maybe later this year I get a couple and place them under the tree for me.
