Looking for 1/16 Scale Abrams Accessories & Mods

Post by SpecOpsMV » Tue Dec 14, 2010 4:49 pm

Hey guys!

I have one of the 1/16th scale M1A1 Abrams put out by Hobby Engine a few years back, and have been looking for 1/16th scale accessories (packs, ammo cans, tarps, etc.) to load up the bustle rack and upper turret area.

Can anyone suggest a good source for such items?

One solution would be to just use the 1/18th stuff from Build-a-Rama. No one will ever know the difference.

You can also occasionally find this stuff used on ebay for somewhat less than full retail.

Thanks for the great tip! I went ahead and just ordered their modern stowage set.

Thanks again for the help.
