This month sees the long-awaited arrival of the Centurion to the Pendraken catalogue!  As well as this, we've got a load of Land Rovers and the T54/55's!

We've compacted the various Mark's of the Centurion down to Mk 3 / 5 / 7 & 9 for ease of ordering.  The vehicles was upgunned and armoured at various points, so the Mk 7 can be used as a Mk 8, and Mk 9 for Mk 10.  The addition of a .50 cal ranging gun then turned these into Mk's 11, 12 & 13, but this wouldn't be noticeable at this scale.  (A quick note, I've used the same Cent picture for all the codes until we get one of each version built for photo'ing).

The T54/55 is the most produced tank in history, with estimated production somewhere close to 100,000 tanks being used by over 50 countries.  It has seen service all over the world, from Vietnam to the 6-Day War and Yugoslav conflict, so is a nice addition to our ranges!

As well as those, we've got the LWB Land Rovers for the Falkland's range, and also the Pink Panther and ambulance versions for our new Modern Vehicles section!

Whereas the Centurion is the most whinged about tank in history  ;D

I think FSN has passed out from shock ;). But seriously these are very nice additions to the ranges.

I think I have always maintained that I want Centurions for the Korean War. That would make them Mk III's.

However ... we do seem to be getting sufficient kit for an Arab Israeli war 67 or 73 .... :-\

Yep, Korean War now on the cards :).

Fenton

Well they all look really good

With all the Centurions now released does that mean we can now turn of the internet and go and do something less boring instead?
If I were creating Pendraken I wouldn't mess about with Romans and  Mongols  I would have started with Centurions , eight o'clock, Day One!

Yay! Oh, it's raining...  :'(
