My collection of German tanks that were manufactured by Corgi includes five Pzkpfw IV, three Pzkpfw V Panther, and three Pzkpfw VI Tiger 1 tanks.
It is a great pity that Corgi did not make any Pzkpfw III tanks ... but that is the way things pan out sometimes.

Achtung Panzer! Corgi also made a Pz4F-2 with the long 75mm gun. I expect the ROCO Pz3 would fit in nicely with that lot.

ReplyDeleteThis must be the pursuit of wargamers of 'that certain age'.... I did the same and discovered sooo many WW2 1/76 vehicles it's not funny.. what was I thinking?
Oh, that's right, there's a touch of the megalamaniac in all of us..LOL
Kind regards

Tim Gow,
ReplyDeleteThanks for your 'heads up'. I have now tracked some down ... and I hope to acquire some in the very near future.
I think you are right about the ROCO Pzkpfw IIIs; they will look good alongside the Corgi tanks.
All the best,
Bob
Robin Sutton,
ReplyDeleteDiscovering these tanks and soft skin vehicles has reawakened my interest in fighting large-scale World War II battles, particularly those between Germany and Soviet Russia.
Megalamania it might be ... but if I wasn't a megalomaniac I wouldn't be a true wargamer would I?
All the best,
Bob
