Title: Korean War additions!
Post by: Leon on 08 May 2023, 01:17:55 AM
We mentioned some Korean War additions recently so we've grabbed some quick pictures of them for you.  These should have gone straight into moulds but the jack on our low-temp mould press decided to call it a day, so we're waiting on a replacement to arrive.

This batch fills in a few gaps in the ranges and adds some fun stuff to go with the new Korean War supplement book.


North Korean - PTRD41 team / 12.7mm DshKm team:

As soon as the low-temp mould press is back in action, these will go straight in and be prepped for release.

Err ... what is happening with that 12.7mm DshKm team? Are they meant for standing on a tank? Are we a tripod adrift? Does the gun rest on the kneeling crewman's head?

Fixed!


Those psy-ops and smoke discharger teams could have many uses  :-\

An interesting and fun bunch.

Always did think Charles Atlas was an American, got to be hin to hold that HMG. Good stuff. The smoke pots and speakers will be useful for all sorts of things.

No...Yes...No. :P

I didn't send the tripod Leon sent down, for sizing, back...I just assume those'll be re-cast from master metals. :D (Glad I didn't have to remake that/those.)

Those smoke dischargers makes me think of the German requirement to capture Allied fuel during the Battle of the Bulge, and I don't have any Tiger II's. :-\

Ah! Well, that's reassuring.  :D

I saw them live in the shop  8)
To keep it apolitical I refrained from suggesting Winnie the Pooh style Chief Propagandists in 10mm  :D

Must resist the urge to buy.....
