All 4 TGM (NMA) Tigers together for the first time ! (1 Viewer)

[sfarrelly]

Hi all,

for the first time we have all 4 TGM (NMA) Tigers together. From left, Desert, Winter, Grey, Kursk (dark Green).

Took many years to find them all. A big thanks for Mark Beinke for providing the last one - Kursk - to complete the set.

Cheers,

Stefan

TG should redo them today. Tigers are always in demand. TG could do a first rate version at a fraction of the price of some recent offerings IMO. I miss the Figarti quality and price. TG can fill that niche in the 1/30 armor market!

Wow all 4 Tigers together, probably never going to see all these together again so a nice trip down memory lane. A big thanks to Stefan and Mark Beinke for their effort!

There a lot of Tigers out there, I have 11 K & C and 3 Eagle Design, there are always buyers for Tiger 1s and also Shermans. I think TG should concentrate on what they do well, figures, small vehicles and aircraft, undertaking a larger vehicle such as a Tiger is a huge undertaking and it is very hard to get it 'right'. Which would take time and resources away from their core products, there are plenty of other things I would like to see from TG, Roman British Enemies, more WW2 figures, would like to see more crew for the 6llB gun, more Paras, etc.

TG has done superb armor in the recent past. The TG Hetzer set a standard for excellence in detail and camouflage yet to be excelled IMO. A Kingtiger without design flaws and at an affordable price point would have a ready market. A Porsche Turret Kingtiger with Zimmerit in 1/30 scale has not as yet been produced. Prior versions have been 1/28 or sans Zimmerit; which is incorrect, as all PT KT's had Zimmerit. First to market with this version would have a winner.

I think TGM has already advised that the AFV's will be larger than previously released and done to suit their figures so I would take it that means not 1/30

Apologies for the stupid question but what is the connection between Thomas Gunn and New Model Army?

One of the directors at NMA (Blake) is also now a director at TG, no other correlation.

You are being far too modest, Blake...NMA was you... and TG is you!
Best wishes,

Sorry but modesty prevents me from replying!
