    Normandy Panther

    Panzer Ace, yes, the crew figures in my display are First Legion figures from their TC013 set. The figures are repaints of the TC012 Heer tank crew figures in SS pea-dot camouflage. I am pretty sure the figures in Mike’s diorama are also FL figures, too.

    Schwere Panzer Abteilung 503 Eastern Front

    Great pics, Wayne! You need to do some similar shots in a pine forest like that around the Leningrad area where these Tigers were first deployed.

    Normandy Panther

    What a fantastic display of one of FL’s best armored vehicles, Mike 😃 The FL NOR091 Normandy Panther G tank is one of my all time favorite 1/30 scale tank models! To me, it just captures the way a Panther should look. I got mine when first released in 2019 and have had it out on display in one...

    My The Collector Showcase Vehicle Collection

    Awesome pics showing off your extensive TCS vehicle collection, Mark IV! I’ve got a few of those in my collection as well. TCS really had a wide range of vehicles and some innovative features on many models. I also like that they correctly scaled their vehicles to their larger 1/28 scale figures...

    Hellcat is here

    Really awesome pics, Rafael! The M18 Hellcat is easily one of my favorite WB vehicles and you’ve really done it justice in your displays.

    ‘Remembering Mike’

    Mike was one of the greats in the U.S. toy soldier hobby. I bought items from his store on multiple occasions. Although I live in the same state, I never got the opportunity to go up and visit their shop… Hopefully the business will be able to continue with his passing.

    buggered Hunchback

    What a big and beautiful model, marcou! The camouflage is particularly well done. Did you take advantage of TGM’s sale on the warbirds? Either way, it’s a great addition to your collection for sure.

    Normandy Porsche Turret King Tiger

    Great looking display, Wayne! I like your use of the War Park figures in your tank as well. I was intent on using the First Legion TC012 Normandy Heer tank crew figures, but while the commander fit perfectly in his hatch, it was tricky to fit the other figure in the loader’s hatch. The “Porsche...

    Question, can anyone help please. FL M10 Winter V K & C Size

    I don’t have a K&C M10; however, based on experience with other K&C AFVs that I do have, it seems that K&C makes their vehicles in 1/30 scale while their figures are larger at around 1/28 scale. It’s likely the K&C figures would look the same next to the FL model as the K&C model, if that makes...
