My Desert Tank and AFV Collection:

Post by Epap » Thu Jun 03, 2010 9:10 am

I'm a big fan of desert armor and warbird schemes and make a point of collecting and redoing models that wear such liveries. Here are pictures of most of my tank and AFV models:[img][img]http://i635.photobucket.com/albums/uu75 ... 0001-1.jpg[/img][/img][img][img]http://i635.photobucket.com/albums/uu75 ... 020002.jpg[/img][/img][img][img]http://i635.photobucket.com/albums/uu75 ... 020003.jpg[/img][/img][img][img]http://i635.photobucket.com/albums/uu75 ... 020004.jpg[/img][/img]

Very nice.

I do recognize FOV, HM, Easy Models and Admiral Toys. Some others I do not recognize, especially on picture 3 and 4. Who make those AFVs and scale?

Thanks, tparkhere.

In picture three we have a Gaso.Line Panzer MK.III and a Matilda in 1:50th, plus three from Solido in 1:50th ( German AC, Panhard AC and Grant tank ) , two Corgis in 1:48th ( Sherman and Churchill ) and two Schuco's in 1:50th ( Striker and Autoblinda ).

Picture four features a 1:30th Figarti Stuart, a 1:32nd FOV Matilda and three King&Country 1:30th scale crushed stone models ( Panzer MKs II and III, Crusader ).

Quite the varied collection there,Ed.

And those King and Country models go for some big bucks.

No wonder I did not recognize some of them.

I only collect 1/72, 1/32 and 1/35 AFVs (Dragon and Minichamps). I must admit some of those AFVs in different scales look very nice and tempting. However, I do not want to start collecting in another scale. I must resist. :wink:

Thanks for sharing your collection.

By the way, I incorrectly labeled one of the Schuco models as a Striker. actually, it's a LAV-25. :oops:
