Title: More important than Centurions
Post by: Last Hussar on 04 August 2013, 07:11:04 PM
This is a much overlooked piece of War of the Roses kit.  Far more important than a post war tank.

Must be true, I have a photo.

OK, got it now.

An ancient cannon towed by a people-carrier I can get my head around, but not when the master-gunner is Gandalf....  :o

FSN pondering when his 'Little Tank' will finally appear

It's cute, but it doesn't have the firepower of a 20pdr, the power of the Rolls-Royce Meteor or the grace and beauty born of the Department of Tank Design.

In fact, I reckon the Centurion would beat this abomination in all categories of Top Trumps bar one. "Year introduced as a Pendraken line."  >:(

Thing is I want several centurions

but they're not much use to me without the Korean and Chinese yobs, T34s we can get, Shermans we can get ,most of the UN forces we can sub but there are definite gaps,

Of course we'll also need appropriate choppers - can't do To Ko Ri without ASR birds  (and a short chubby chap in bright green scarf)

Just for info (and to cheer fsn up!) the Centurions have gone away for moulding now, we dropped them off at the Claymore show yesterday.

Thank you.

Hopefully we'll see the new mould at either Border Reiver or Colours, and then we can get them sorted for release.  We had to take quite a few pics of the parts before they left though, to make sure we know which bits go with which version!

:D

Can I make a humble suggestion that FSN is given a centurion tank model for free, he has kept us all very entertained here for the last few weeks even though we have been taking the piss having jolly japes and jests at his expense

Oh well, I'll just have to wait for next year. It's not as if I don't have enough stuff to be getting on with!

We'll definitely have them for Warfare if you'll be at that one this year?
