| I'm sure those are nice, but I'm into WWII tanks and they dont have much in stock. How are the minichamps half-tracks? |
Hi Dasboot, I didn't mean to hijack your thread pal
I've seen the halftrack out of the box put on display in the shop(the winter camo one) well I didn't like it too much(I don't really know why) and that the halftrack looked like it was fresh out from the factory though the engine cover opens.
I searched the Minichamps site and think this has got to be the best halftrack among the three: 350011170 SD.KFZ. 7 8-TON SEMI TRACK PERSONNEL CARRIER 'HEERES FLAK-ATIL.ABT.314' CHARKOW,RUSSIA-APRIL 1943. It's still listed as available. But I've not seen it in person myself.
I also saw a very nice 1/18 Kuebelwagen in the shop (overall dark green one): KFZ VOLKSWAGEN TYPE 82 KUEBELWAGEN RUSSIA DIV.'GROSSDEUTSCHL.'RECON.UNIT 1941 (100052000). I too recommend this to you.
But it's listed as being sold out at the Minichamps site
. I myself don't collect cars even ones used by the military and besides I'm concentrating on modern tanks though I've to admit that not having a working suspension in any Minichamps car models is what actually put me off.
I'm intrigued by knowing there's some working mechanics(suspension) in my Minichamps tank models like there's more than meets the eye.
