Yeah - I don't get it. If you are selling a model, you must have one to photograph and so why not take a few minutes to put the photos up?

The 2S7 looks really good.

Pity only 1 CRAARV in the box.

That Pzkw I turned out very nice! The trailer is sweet - GHQ may want to do a German ammo trailer pack at some point!! Thanks for making that model!!

Dunno if it's been changed since going up originally, but it shows 2 x CRARRV per blister now.....
Better value than the single Titan bridgelayer.....

I just saw the photo for GEN25, Pinquin (HSK 5) and it appears that it is molded with the gun ports open. This means that it can't be used in its disguised form. I don't know if I will be purchasing this item. I already have a 3D printed set with both versions, but the GHQ model has much nicer detail. If I do decide to get GEN25, I'll purchase two, since Atlantis(HSK2) is almost identical in appearance.

The HSK 5 Pinguin looks fantastic and I like how they have modeled the guns.

As far as the M4A3 early hull Sherman - not as impressed. Not sure why they would use a turret with a late war commander's cupola. This configuration would have been extremely rare.

Yes, I agree.
Sadly they did the same with the Brit desert Sherman with sandskirts last year or so.
Great kit, kit but ahistorical with the late-war cupola. Stopped me buying them.
Also, the Stryker Dragoon looks to have the turret "perched" a little higher than the actual one I was looking at when I was at AUSA last October.

Iâ€™m having trouble getting clarity so sorry if this is basic.

Who used the M4A3 and when. Especially would it have been present in NWE and in the US or Brits?

Thanks

Looks pretty detailed and packing modern armour pack.

Hi rct75001,

From what I can find, the M4A3 was used almost exclusively by the U.S. The Free French received one machine. I can't find how many the British had, just that they called it the Sherman IV. We deployed them in NWE, while the British used the M4A4s and A2s.

The CRARRV looks amazing.. Might need to pick up a pack with the next purchase.

CRAARV is clearly a BEAST! Now, let's get the latest Hercules out. M88 could use an update!

Same here. I'll buy two of them as well, and see if I can manage to remove the guns without too much hassle. If I can, I'll probably get another 4-5 to stand in as normal, German Ehrenfels-class merchant ships. I don't think I've seen anyone else produce German freighters in 1/2400 scale so far (shapeways being the exception).
