Small Scale Military Headquarters

Well here it is almost the end of the year, where's all the new FOV? Wasn't something going to be released this year besides new packaging, repaints (and very bad ones) and higher prices? Very disappointing.

R.I.P.

Maybe next year? I have seen the Sherman repaint for presale from Japan on E-bay. I have seen nothing new, I guess the Rep. from FOV. was just blowing smoke, about new models.

In the last six months or so I started buying various 1:72 armor. FOV has two trucks that are new toolings.
Looked at the pics and they seem to be a little better than the earlier offerings so I bought them. They are on the way.

One has a figure (does he look a little big?)



The other is a Halftrack but no figures



The GMC Duece 1/2 with figure seems to have a little crisper details than the other.
Just trucks though, I don't see anything new in that scale for tanks.

I've said it before and I'll say it again,the next FOV I buy will either be the Merkava or the Char Bis!!.Best job I ever had.

Hey D, how are you liking the 1/72 armor? I remember there was a discussion on here a few months back, about its small size and how some liked it and others didn't. I'm still hemming and hawing about it myself...

Mostly I like the trucks and support vehicles, but got some tanks too.

I wanted vehicles you might see around aircraft and 1:72 is my chosen scale for that.
The pieces look good together with the planes and in most cases are even more detailed than the aircraft.

Now it's kinda evolving into Shermans, Panzers and halftracks etc.

...cool site too.
