I voted on Cromwell too. The 10th Mounted Rifles regiment and the command of the Polish 1st Armoured Division were equipped with Cromwells (the remaining units - with "British" Shermans Mk. V = M4A4 and Mk. VC Firefly, later with the "American" Mk. IIA = M4A1(76)W).
Best regards

Re: wish list

I agree with LWP! And that is my wish list. Maybe the Polish September 1939 Campaign weapons (7TP vs. Pz.I or II, P-11c vs. early version of Bf-109) would be interesting only for me, but the British or American ones with markings of the Polish Armed Forces - why not? I would like to get a Hurricane,...

Re: Wow, what a line up...

The models look really great, but... ...why the 1:72 Hurricane on the painting scheme is the early production Mk. I with two-blade propeller (probably right - No. I Squadron, France 1940) and the model on photo is the Mk. IIC with four 20 mm cannons (1941 or later!!!)? ...why the 1:32 Spitfires Mk. ...

Re: New Ray Airplanes

Yes, the New-Ray Spitfire model is the late version, Mk XIV, but the brown and green camouflage and the British markings are from the beginning of WW II (and the bottom of wings and fuselage are dark green!). The RAF code letters on the fuselage are "RF". It is the code of the famous Polish 303 Kosc...

New Ray Airplanes

I bought recently (in Poland, at "Lidl") four airplanes 1/48 from "New Ray" for my sons: a P-40, Dewoitine D-520, MiG-3 and F4U Corsair. Probably you know them. They are, of course, much more toys than scale models (e.g. the undercarriage in P-40 and F4U is to retract like in Spitfire...), but they ...

AgentDolu, Unfortunately, the FoVs and 21CTs are not available in Poland. Some months ago there were only 4 (!) examples of FoV in one Polish online shop and I bought 2 models: King Tiger and Schwimmwagen. The remaining vehicles (FoV: Jeep, M4 Sherman, Half-track, Matilda, StuG III and 21st CT: Pant...

Thank you, Mike. I think the best (and cheapest) way to stop for a longer time the German (and Soviet) tanks in 1939 was to produce much more of the "wz. 36" anti-tank guns (37mm; under the licence of Bofors) and the perfect anti-tank rifles "Ur wz. 35" (7,92 mm; Polish construction; destroyed any t...

Re: What scale/brand do you collect?

My sons and I start to collect the 1/32 military vehicles of WWII. We have got some FoVs and Cold Steel. It is a very rare hobby in Poland (I know only one more Polish collector). But we wait for the American and British vehicles, in versions used by the Polish Armed Forces 1939-45.
