will HB makes Panzer crew anytime in the future? (1 Viewer)

[nasirkasmani]

Now that HB ceases to make vehicle, i wonder if they will produce panzer crew sets to complement their previous panthers/gold tiger etc?

these figures can be full bodied, like the standing wittmann figure.

if they do so, i can mix and match, maybe figarti tanks with HB figures.

just a thought.

sincerely,

nasir kasmani.

Nasir,

I just ordered one of the winter Tiger half-figure tank commanders to use with my HB Winter Panther, so the tank commander figures are apparently still available for special order.

I just ordered the leafy camouflage set for one of my Shermans so apparently all the periferals can still be ordered as well

what i meant was a new set in scale with the excellent new figure sets.

i compared my damaged panther crew to the HB german flamethrower and american medic set, and i found the scale difference rather obvious.

You can! I want to order a set as well!!

 

[Louis Badolato]

You were right, Bill, you can still order the tank accessories, including the foliage camo. I just did.

Extra Tank crew will always be welcome,they really help for dio's and multiple buying,the K&C extra crew set seem to have proved very popular.

I just got a notice from treefrog that my accessories have been shipped. When they arrive, I will take some shots of my HB Shermans with the accessories.

I'm waiting on the "tul" mesh fabric to which the foliage camouflage is attached. I am going to have to affix the "tul" to my "Al Capone" Sheman myself. Any of you modelers have any suggestions as to what to use? Will Crazy Glue work?

I attached the "tul" and foliage camouflage to my "Al Capone" Sherman, and I am e-mailing some photos to Brad with a polite request that he post them for me on this thread.

Louis:

How & what did you use to attach the camouflage netting to the Sherman tank?

Thanks,
Marc

Crazy glue at the front and rear corners of the tank.

As the photos will show, I did the hull this afternoon. I did the turret tonight and tomorrow I'll take some shots of the fully completed foliage camouflage.

Thanks again Brad!

It looks way better with the turret camouflaged as well, and additional foliage on the hull. I will send Brad a couple of photos of the finished product tomorrow with a polite request that he post them.

 

[Louis Badolato]

I e-mailed Brad 7 more photos of the Sherman, now fully camouflaged on the hull and turret, with a polite request that he post them for me.

Louis,

you got one heck of a display mate.

Louis,

Nasir,

I just wish you could come visit and see it, my friend. I would be proud to get a photo of you standing next to your HB Tiger. Maybe someday I can convince you to visit . . .
