"Infrared" Panther (1 Viewer)

[Combat]

Ana-
Is this one still in the works? If so, any estimate on when we might get some pics or release date? Thanks again.

Hi Ana,

I am curious if you are going to do a platoon of these vehicles (5) with its supporting Infantry and an Sd Kfz 251/20 mounting a 60 cm IR search Light. the 251 command vehicle had a crew of four and was called an eagle owl. They managed to field about 60 of these vehicles by the end of the war. Would be an interesting varient that no one has done yet (as far as I know)

All the best

I believe it will be released around february, Doug. I'll keep you posted.

Yes, Dave, we will be making the whole group.

Take care,

Ana

Solido made this in 1/50 scale and I have one in my collection. The French made Solido/Verem models were basic but about the only military diecast models you could get for many years. I don't think they make military toys anymore, at least that's the rumour I've heard, so maybe they're all retired

Yes, Dave, we will be making the whole group.

Take care,

Wow. That should really be something if I understand correctly. I was just expecting another Panther. Can't wait to see some pics.

 

[DMNamiot]

Sure will be fun to see all of those vehicles together in a big display smoking a T34!

A whole group will be amazing. Can't wait to see it.

I understand some arrived in time for the ardennes campaign. Winter versions?

 

[Ana Donzino]

Sure, Kevin. If they were there in winter camo we will make them.
As usual, we'll have them in as many versions as we can.

Are these going to be without zimmerit?

 

[Ana Donzino]

I think so, Alex, but I'm not sure. I'll ask the boyz and will let you know.

Ana

 

[Alexdakar]

Ana did you find out about the "Infrared" Panther not having zimmerit.

 

[Ana Donzino]

I promise I'll have an answer for tomorrow, Alex. Sorry for this delay.

Ana, what's next for Honour Bound and is there any updates on your Sherman? Thanks

[Combat]

Pictures, pictures.

 

[Ana Donzino]

Alex: I.R. will be with zimmerit.

Ana

 

[Alexdakar]

Aw man.

 

[Shannon Reuss]

Clue me in Alex, I'm not a tank expert. Why do you not want zimmerit on this tank?

 

[jazzeum]

Dude, that makes two of us.

I assume the difference is that non-zim would be smoother like the KC vehicles.
