1⁄35
Monday, September 15, 2008 - 03:49 AM UTC
Certainly a new company to this site, Neograde are a Korean company specializing in some very original conversions, updates and stowage sets for 1/35th scale vehicles.
There are several items in the company's lists which certainly DON'T exist from any other manufacturer. There are also some items which do look as if they've solved a couple of design 'problems' which have plagued modelers for years...
Thre are three categories to Neograde's 1/35th scale range. These are Conversion Kits, Option Parts (Upgrades) and Accessory Sets. However, i'll begin with the company's latest releases:
TA-0011 - R.O.K .ARMY K1A1
(?) Sidewalk (1/35th scale)
TA-0010 - CENTAUR C.S.Mk.IV This upgrade contains Stowage along with the additional storage boxes seen on many Centaurs.
TA-0009 - CROMWELL Mk.IV Now here is where it gets REALLY interesting. One of the eternal problems for Allied modelers has been to convincingly reproduce the Scrim Netting which was a common feature on virtually all British vehicles. In this update set, the netting is sculpted in sections which fit over the kit parts. The photos do, IMO look pretty good.
Moving away from the New releases to the section of conversion kits. There are currently four sets:
TC-0004 - German Training Panzer (1920s-30s)
TC-0003 - PzIII Ammunition Carrier
TC-0002 - PzIII Engineer Vehicle
TC-0001 - BergePanzer III
'Option' Parts (Upgrades):
TO-0004 - Sherman Sandbag Armor (Europe)
TO-0005 - Sherman Sandbag Armor (Europe), wooden framing
TO-0006 - Sherman Additional Armor (Pacific)
TO-0007 - T34 (Mod 1942) Turret/Glacis Applique Armor
TO-0008 - Tiger I Battalion NO.505 Upgrade Set
TO-000? - Wooden trunks
TO-0009 - Wooden additional armor for T34
TO-0010 - Finnish Upgrade for Stuh 40 Ausf. G
Accessory Sets:
TA-0007 - U.S Battered Jerry Can Set
TA-000? - M3 Grant Stowage
CA-0001 - US.WILLYS Jeep Stowage
CA-0002 - US.2 1/2-TON 6x6 CARGO TRUCK Stowage & Payload
