Cheers, I have 2, 1 winter and 1 grey one. They are excellent, see below for my picture with some Warpark figures and T Gunn Tank. They are very detailed.

Hi I just received mine from the states unfortunately the gun shield has split (I don't seem to have a lot of luck everything seems to get broken in transit
) The model itself is excellent. Right stupid question the model comes with two seats, I have found and attached the one on the side of the dials but can't for the life of me see where the second one attached. Is it a spare seat? If not could someone send me a picture of where it goes please.
Cheers

Try googling the real thing and checking it out on there, thats what i did when i was i checking on tool placement for a Panzer IV, when i was making a plastic model of one, whereas the tool placement was different on the 88mm it should be the same..

Took me a while to figure that out, too.

I recently obtained a Britains 88mm Flak Gun set after a seller on eBay discounted one to $275…. It was definitely worth that price! It’s a very detailed, well painted/weathered, yet rather fragile model. I hope it’s not a long wait for the additional crew figures as those will really help finish out the set.
I’ve got mine displayed in action with some additional Volks Grenadiers helping to defend the position. Enjoy

Would be nice if soon the rest of the crew for the Flak appears.

They are currently scheduled to be shipped in early February. The samples are very good and I agree that they will be nice additions to displays. I will try to post a photo of a gun with all of the crew next week.

Here is a photo I just took of the new overall gray 88mm Flak gun with the add on crews and accessories. There are 3 two figure add on crews and the seated gunner will be included in the gun.

Love it. Any chance of earlier war crew in summer uniforms?

There is something we are planning that should work for warmer weather conditions. As you probably know the wool uniform was universal issue for most of the temperate climates.
First Legion would be closer on scale
