Modern Brits and WW2 Germans

¹⁄35

Tuesday, May 19, 2015 - 09:10 PM UTC

Bronco Models has sent Armorama news of their latest kits in the works, their latest black ops feature Current British infantry and three WW2 German offerings.

Bronco Models continues to produce models that the modeller is after, in this latest batch there are a Panzer III Ausf A, a Horch radio car and a Morserzugmittel 35 T. The Morserzugmittel is a new one on me, but should prove of interest to the artillery fans out there. The one that has caught my attention is the Modern British ATV Quad and trailer with four British infantry figures.

The Modern British ATV Quad and trailer with four British infantry figures feature some really nice options which are; 2 options of body armour (Mk.1 & Mk.4) helmets (Mk.6a & Mk.7), the small arms are L85A2 and L129A1 and I believe that this is the first time the L129A1 has been offered in plastic.

Pz. III A, eh? Maybe they can get it right, since MiniArt has fumbled the ball a bit with their releases.

Huh? How did Miniart "fumble the ball a bit" with their release?

IIRC MiniArt bungled the engine deck and it doesn't fit correctly. Missing Lynx had a couple of threads about the fit issues.

IIRC MiniArt bungled the engine deck and it doesn't fit correctly. Missing Lynx had a couple of threads about the fit issues.[/quote] well, I had compared the rear deck with the plans in Spielbergers Panzer III book. Those are minor inaccuracies in the geometry of that part, always less than a millimeter, resulting in a slightly wrong angle of the rear engine deck. Impossible to spot without calipers... as i haven't build it yet i can't tell anything about the fit issues. anyway: great to see that the days of the old CMK moulds are finally over with the new Mörserzugmittel. The panzer III will definitely be worth adding to my stash.

So it has been more than 1.5 years since this modern British kit was announced. No appearance, yet, right?

Yep pretty much. I wouldn't trust bronco to predict Christmas nevermind an accurate release date for those modern British figures. They may be one of your top companies Darren but I find them to be somewhat disappointing. ..Thanks for the info on the other kits
