Thank you sir for the review. Was torn between Miniart and Ryefields offerings. Not surprisingly,Miniarts kit seems to be the best,hands down. Like many of us,I have all versions of the sdkfz 234 armored car series but always like to have one showing the interior. This also goes for all my pz iv’s,pz lll’s,tiger I’s and panthers to name a few. Looks like I have a Dragon puma to sell now with the introduction of Miniarts new kit with interior. I don’t seem to hear from you to much anymore. Your voice is very recognizable and I miss your distinctive,Ma friends intro. I miss seeing you assembling your models and great building techniques and you always seem gifted as to the kits you pick to feature. I remember awhile back how you posted a video claiming that due to your busy lifestyle that you had to cut back on your productions. Some day after you have discovered all the secrets of life, you’ll once again bless us with many vids like you were once able to do. Miss you! Rick.
Another grest review, this would make a great kit for a post war diorama, and you could add some type of load in the rear bed, thsnks for sharing, best regards from Australia, Les
I appreciate that, hope the video was useful too :D It looks like Miniart slightly improved their quality, so I will give a try for build-review of one of the bigger models soon
That will be a excellent kit to build, Miniart are coming out with some grest subjects, I like the way they do the rubber for the wheels, as for the full interior verdion that would be great, best regards from Australia, Les
@@dsv "modern" tracks, detailed, flexible and glueable with ordinary modelling glue cannot be compared with old tracks which were either merely rubber bands with some detailing (mostly for motorized models) or stiff vinyl which had to be glued with special glues. Or stapled as even the glue wasn't strong enough.
No PE included? Is this panther the ICM bergepanther issued several years ago? If so the tracks looks good but the fitting is not perfect. The top cover for the hull is also a problem. Hope these problems are corrected in this kit. Anyway, if we have to change the barrel, add some PE for the air intakes and change the tracks that's a budget. Thanks for your very kind review and advices. Best regards from France. François Bazan
Very cleanly moulded. FIVE figures and a cute dog. Like the fact that the helmets are seperate from the heads. Makes painting the flesh colors much easier. Have several pixel decal sheets from Print Scale and Breeze Decals. Obviously there will be a follow-up release featuring the fifth figure an dog. Preorder from Hannants when announced. 👍
The kit doesn't include the lantern that's shown on the box art. A bit disappointing. I had to buy Miniart 35564 Office Furniture and Accessories to get a lantern suitable for the kit.
Good morning my friend, thst was avgrest review, andvwould make a great addition to my collection, but only if I could sneak it home, best regards from Australia, Les
Is there NOTHING that MiniArt WON'T make in 1/35th scale for the diorama builder . . . ? I hope they'll bring out some machinist figures and hand tools to go with this. Now I'm going to have to come up with a diorama idea so I'll have a reason to get this fine kit. If anyone from MiniArt is reading this, please consider a kit of the Bob Semple tank as a future release! Слава Україні! 33rd. Like.
It looks like a very nicely detailed kit but I agree about the lack of any stencil decals. For around £20 in the UK they should be included at that price.
