Small Scale Military Headquarters

Think I saw a post a couple of weeks ago that some member was going to cast a set of road wheels for the FOV Tiger to make it accurate. Was this true or whishful thinking. If true, will any be for sale?

I cannot find any mention or photos of any Tigers in North Africa that had zimmermit. Please, someone tell me that at least one Tiger in North Africa had it (and it be the truth, not just what I want to hear .) so that I can pose some Afrikakorps figures with it.

no tigers in africa with zimmerit. Zimmerit didn't come into use until Fall of ''43, long after the africa campaign was over.

Yeah, I seem to remember someone mentioning something along those lines, but lets be practical here for a minute, technically speaking yes, the FOV Tiger is lacking an accurate number of roadwheels, but unless you are going to strip the tracks off your tank and display it upside down I honestly don't see where this is a really big deal, casting and mounting another set of wheels seems like an awful lot of trouble for very little benefit. I don't know, opinions may vary on this, but it just doesn't seem worth bothering with to me.

Well, if a complete set of early roadwheels are forthcoming, it would be a great benefit to me. They would be designed with the 21C Tiger in mind, making them much easier to assemble than trying to take apart 2 FOV Tigers and modifying those road wheels. Let's say 2 FOV Tigers would be in the neighborhood of $40 to $60, I'd much rather invest that money in something that only needs to be painted and attached. Considering the amount of time I've already put into my Tunisia custom, I'd hate to half-ass it in the end.
