Nice collection. I take it they're 1:72?

Hello Brian:

Great collection of armor, Dragon they’re 1/35 right? I have lots of WWII 1/35 armor and vehicles. They don’t appreciate in value like some toy soldiers but they sure are nice aren’t they? Do you build them and paint them yourself?

Have you thought about framing them in your cabinets with some diorama material to give them scale; Build-A-Rama has some nice accessories.

Welcome aboard,

Carlos

Those are 1/72 scale. I have quite a few of these also.

Your right Alex these are the 1/72 line,all prepainted and already assembled. I guess I have roughly 60 of them all together. I have slowed down on them because of all the repaints latlely but have the new Nashorns and Stug's coming. I also was a little peaved at all the Cyber Hobby releases that were just getting out of hand. Slowly now the price has started to creep up but they are very detailed and the latest releases look quite good. In the pictures shown there are a couple of CDC Armor releases that I had picked up years ago and one or two of the original Matchbox 1/72 that were released before the ones you can get in Wal-Mart or Target now. I would also like to add that I have a couple of the railguns from the Can-Do line and they are very impressive.
Thanks for the comments. Carlos I will give the background suggestion some thought and yes I have seen some of the BAR offerings in this scale. I'm still waiting for the lottery to come through so I can have it all...

Some of the Cyber Hobby releases have been excellent, especially the first few like the Wittman tanks, and the Carius tiger. My favourite release though has been the Ardennes Offensive King Tiger with fallschirmjager tank riders.

You are right about the railgun. It's a little work of art.

I stand corrected I guess they are 1/72 scale...LOL

I get mixed up some times about Dragon, they're so many offerings in the model kit arena. I do have many 1/35 models and the Can Do Pocket Armies (1/35) go exceedingly well with them.

Nice collection. I have a lot of them also, but stopped collecting when they started repainting the tanks over and over. If they come out with some Panzer III's I will buy a few more.

Nice display of armor. I got my first two Dragon 1/72 armor- stug and tiger. I have that scale in kits I made along with 1/35 scale but like these Dragon armor-- tried to avoid them for a long time but I will probably get more in the future- especially PZ. 3's and 4's. John
