Quote from: fred. on 22 October 2022, 05:54:33 PMThese look good - can I check what size these are compared to the older ones (which seemed quite small)?

Sorry fred, just noticed this query.  The new models come out at 41mm length and I've got the old ones marked down as 35mm on my spreadsheet, so these are close to 20% longer.  The width of the old ones was actually about right though, at 15mm-ish.

Thanks Leon - had to go and check those numbers - but they look good compared to what's in Chamberlin and Ellis

One of the benefits of these digital designs is that we can print them at exactly the right size for 1:150th scale.  There's still a little variance in the end product due to the moulding process but it should only be a mm or less.

Quick question.

Having now got some of the halftracks (picked up at Warfare) which are great - what are people doing for drivers for IDF vehicles?

Good question...!  The best option currently would be the WWII US drivers, or we could supply some of the 1908's US MUTT jeep drivers instead.

For 67 reserve formations you could use British drivers, the Brodie helmet was still used by reserve units.
