Legend Productions continues to work on 3D mastered weapons systems for the modeller to dress up their kits with the improved detail that resin offers. Also announced is a new release for the Meng Merkava and Magach, but I feel the biggest surprise is a foray into the world of helicopters. Please look inside for more details.
Legend Productions begins this new product announcement with no less than four Carl-Gustaf packages in the form of:
LF3D065 - Carl-Gustaf Twin Container and Ammunition set
LF3D066 - Carl-Gustaf M3 Multi-Role Weapon System (4ea)
LF3D067 - Carl-Gustaf M4 Multi-Role Weapon System (4ea)
LF3D068 - Carl-Gustaf M4 Multi-Role Weapon System w/Cover (4ea)

Next up the family of Mini Guns gets further additions with the upcoming release of a:
LF3D069 - M134D Minigun on SAG Shield Mount w/ 4,000rd Ammo Box
LF3D070 - M134D Minigun on Transparent Shield (short) Mount w/4,000rd Ammo Box (Ground/Naval Deck Applications)

Moving away from the 3D mastered weapons and Israeli armour is offered some dressing up in the form of resin storage elements which are:
LF1365 - Magach 6B GAL Batash Turret Basket (for Meng)
LF1366 - Merkava 4M Hull Basket set (for Meng)

For me the real surprise is a rotor folding set for the new Academy Cobra in 1/35th scale. The academy 1/35th scale cobra has attracted a lot of attention and for ease of display the ability to fold the rotors is a big plus in my opinion due to the space it would otherwise occupy.
LF1367 - AH-1Z Blade Fold set (for Academy)

Does Legend make a bustle rack gear for Meng’s Merk V? Thanks, Dan

Excellent to see the variety of Carl G's being released. Top notch!

Like Mario says, it's good to see the update sets again, it have been little to much weapon set the last year.. but i like the carl gustav rifles and ammo boxes.. but please continue to do more update sets like you did before

Some amazing goodies here and you're right, the helicopter blade that folds makes it not only easier to display but also opens the possibility of a hanger deck scene. Cool.

Loving that Charlie-G, will there be figures to accompany it?

I guess you meant Mk.IV...? Legend only makes full, covered hull and turret baskets for the Academy kit. Meng makes the same for its own Mk.4M.

Yes, I did. I’ve seen Meng’s set but it is around the same price as the kit. Dan

The Carl Gustavs look amazing, and having the M4 version, vastly improved over the M3, is a "First" for 1/35 modern armament. Having four Carl Gustavs to a set provides some really awesome firepower for any vehicle or group of figures.

This makes me definitely want to get Academy's new Z-Cobra that way it can fit on my shelf.
