Something interesting is coming from Ding-Hao Hobby that will be of interest to Churchill fans.
Ding-Hao Hobby has announced they have a Churchill with Snake Tubes in the works. The Churchill Snake is prototype that was used carry the Canadian designed Snake, a variant of the Bangalore torpedo, for use in mine clearing operations. The tubes were mounted on the Churchill Gun tank chassis, with the gun removed. This looks to be a very cool variant of the Churchill, and a must for Churchill fans.

Nice to have another funny to build

Very nice. It's going on that list but I doubt I'll get as it's a mile long now. Didn't see this much fun in the 70's so model building is at it's best today! Jeff

Ordered mine last night via ebay, just waiting for the other 2 versions to land over here. I wonder if we'll get a bridgelayer? or certainly an Avre with SBG? Pete

Hi Pete, let us know what the kit is like. Looks like another one to add to the build list. If is based on the AFV kit then it should be good. Cheers Al

Have any of the Ding-Hao kits hit the market yet? I know I have had the Yugslavian M3A3s on preorder forever, added this one as well.

My kit arrived this morning in just 6 days from Taiwan. First impression look ok, I've only opened the box and had a quick look inside, I'll have a detailed look at the weekend.

Having had a good look in and around this kit (It's definitely AFV Club ) It's basically the 3" gun carrier kit minus the gun but plus 8 extra sprues for the Snake tubes. Hopefully I'll be starting it in around a weeks time. Pete
