Default For the week of March 19, 2006

This week our ground offerings feature two W. Britain World War two tanks, with two design choices of each. The scale of each is 1:35 (which means that they are more than twice as large as the 1:72 Dragon line). The price of each is a very low $25.

First is the tank that some consider the best of World War II--the Soviet T-34. Both are T-34/76s and can be seen here:

The second are German Pz IVs from the Afrika Korps. They appear to be the G ausf. They can be seen here:

For you air buffs, this week's buy is a 1:72 scale US 8th. Air Force set of 3 planes, B-17 (looks like an F model), P-51-D Mustang & a P-47 Thunderbolt. The three plane set is offered at an amazing price of only $55. It can be found at Pete's by way of this link:
