After my recent purchase, I decided that it might be a good idea if I made an inventory of the Zvezda ART OF TACTIC 1:100th-scale vehicle and 1:144th-scale aircraft models that I have so far acquired:
German
I do have some 1:100th-scale vehicles from other manufacturers that I can use alongside the Zvezda models. These include:
HASBRO Axis & Allies Miniatures (All of these have soft plastic turrets and/or guns that may have to be replaced. Alternately some of them could be converted into self-propelled artillery.)
German
2 x Bf109F FightersSoviet
2 x Ju87 Stuka Dive Bombers
3 x Pzkpfw IIIG Tanks
3 x Pzkpfw II Tanks
2 x Pzkpfw IVD Tanks
3 x Pzkpfw 38(t) Tanks
3 x Opel Blitz Trucks
1 x SdKfz 251/1 Armoured Half track
1 x LAGG-3 FighterIt immediately strikes me that the Russians need some more tanks to even up the balance, and both sides are going to need more trucks.
2 x IL-2 Ground-attack Aircraft
2 x T-34/76 Tanks
3 x T-26M Tanks
4 x Zis-5 Trucks

They are pretty nice.
Don M,
ReplyDeleteI managed to buy mine for about half price in a discount store. As they come ready painted and weathered, all I had to do was to cut off the Indiana Jones figures that was attached to the back axle and they were ready to use!
All the best,
Bob
Half price Mercedes lorries? Bob - I'm proud of you!
ReplyDeleteTim Gow,
ReplyDeleteThanks for the compliment! Coming as it does from the arch bargain hunter himself, that is true praise indeed!
All the best,
Bob
... Both sides will always need more trucks Bob :O)
ReplyDeleteRegards, Chris
Chris Kemp,
ReplyDeleteI had hoped to get some more trucks ... but all my Zvezda 'kit' has now gone to a new home in Essex.
All the best,
Bob
