I'm glad I didn't, though—what a beast.




Fixed barrel was in wrong place for pics.

Glad you didnt. Is that an Afrika Corps tank?. I know next to nothing about WW2 armour but want to get an AK tank to go with my small K n C WW2 N Africa figures - Aussies V Afrika Corps

I would go for one or two of JJD smaller tanks, i am looking at a Panzer III and the Panzers IIs as well.

The K Tiger did not serve in the desert, too late, if you want a bigger tank try K & Cs Tiger 1s, they are the business.

Jason, you can’t go wrong with any of John’s recent DAK tanks. They are all fantastic models and I’ve included some pics of mine displayed with First Legion figures below.




John’s tanks are proper 1/30 scale, so the K&C DAK or 8th Army figures, which are actually around 1/29 or 1/28 scale, will all be a bit too big standing next to the JJD models. However, the First Legion DAK Panzer IIIL tank is slightly larger at around 1/29 scale, so would scale better with the K&C figures. My pic below show the FL DAK Panzer IIIL tank with FL DAK figures and you can kind of see how much larger it is next to the figures when compared to the JJD Panzer III.




BTW, fantastic pics of the new JJD winter King Tiger, Wayne

Thank you TMan, you are the best. So i think i need an FL Tiger. I will have to start saving for that one. Never bought a tank in a collection of 8-10 k of figures
