A useful series of books for anyone wanting to build up their library...

Kagero books, who are based in Poland, have announced some new titles. I don't want to run through the entire list but I will mention some of their 'salient' points. Kagero are very similar to Squadron/Signal in format and style, however what is different (in respect to their armor series) is the following:

There are Three Series, all covering important and different aspects of Armor modelling.

1) Photosniper. There are 18 titles in this series, principally German (at the moment) although #kg0011 covers the M5a1 Stuart. They differ significantly as many of them include either some photo-etch or a sheet of decals. I have seen the sheet for the Stuart and in two words-im pressive...

2) In Miniature Series. These again include decals. No 1 covers the Stug III, No. 2, the Panzer IV. Again both have a sheet of decals included...

3) The Camouflage Series. Only one title is so far available, 'Eastern Front, Part 1' looking at the pages I have seen, it will have Soviet Armor Modellers salivating...now where did I put that BT-5?. Again a sheet of decals is included.

It is worth noting that all are published in Polish/English

Price of each volume is $19.95, Squadron Mail Order (http://www.squadron.com) have the entire list.

For those of us who live in Europe, they can be ordered directly fom Kagero:

And as an added bonus, the prices in Euros are a lot more attractive than the USD price. NOW THAT HAS TO BE SOME KIND OF RECORD.....
