Unimax/FOV to make 1/72 Armor!!

Post by hworth18 » Wed Oct 06, 2004 10:29 am

Talked to my hobby guy and he said that Unimax/Panache place announced today they would be making a line of 1/72 scale diecast armor.. I don't have specifics on what they will be producing and all he has is a part number in his computer that says "assortment".. But it is something to look forward to and it may compete with Dragons stuff.. Maybe offer some Allied armor too...
I am excited to hear this and I just thought I'd pass it along... :D :D

Yippeee!

More goodies to buy!

I would like to see more allied armor as well as some cool Pzkw IV's. Maybe a Hetzer or something?

It would be really nice if they would fill in some of the 'gaps' between the CDC armour and Dragon Armour lineups.

I might just have to start going to church! :lol: I have absolutely no money since all this 1/18th stuff came out.I too hope they do some
interesting allied stuff to go with all that heavy German armor that
Dragon puts out.Has there ever been a time that so many choices were
available to us?Ride the wave gentlemen!

That is awesome news!! I love their 32 scale stuff but I have not bought too much mainly because of the prices(I realize that those are good prices considering the detail) but I need something a bit cheaper to buy in bulk not to mention the smaller size for my not so big house.

Dan :D

Preliminary pricing!!!

Post by hworth18 » Thu Oct 21, 2004 11:54 am

I talked again to my local Hobby guy and he gave me these prices on the FOV 1/72 stuff that is to be out on 5/05..
1/72 Armor $11.99
1/72 Aircraft $14.99
1/72 figure sets $8.99

Don't know how realistic these are, but atleast it's a start.. Pretty reasonable in my book!!
