Default For the Week of May 31, 2009

This week I found some more Oryon 1:35 scale World War II soldiers on sale for just $14.95 and they are again being offered by Military Issue. They have more than one set, but all types appear to be going fast, as they did a couple months back. Still shown to be in stock are the 101st Airborne Division.



Amazingly detailed and hand-painted by expert craftsmen, these four 1/35 scale metal figures - depicting 101st Airborne Division "Screaming Eagles" during World War II - are historically accurate right down to their realistic uniforms and weapons. Each measures approximately 2" tall and arrives ready to display.

If interested, call them or jump onto this link now:

Our first armor selection is also an item back on sale at Military Issue. This 1:35 scale Tamiya Materwork Sturmgeschutz III Ausf. G for $79.95.



Hand assembled and painted by expert modelers, this fully assembled 1/35 scale plastic and metal model of a World War II Sturmgeschütz III Ausf.G features an aluminum gun barrel with a muzzle brake, optional-position hatches, photo-etched engine grilles, a machine gun shield, removable side skirts, realistic metal tracks, plenty of tools and equipment, a camouflage scheme and authentic 237th Sturmgeschütz Brigade markings, and more. Measures approximately 7¾" long and arrives ready to display.

7143 German Luftwaffe
Focke-Wulf 190D 'Dora-13'

JG 26 "Schlageter" Flensburg, Germany, May 1945

Major Franz GOTZ (63 Victories) </B>
In July 1944 Germany introduced the Messerschmitt Me 262, the first jet aircraft in combat. Allied pilots were astonished by its speed-100mph faster than the best Allied fighters-and quick to find its weakness-it was vulnerable at take-off and particularly at landing. So the Luftwaffe arranged for conventional fighters to cover the jets over their air bases, because during 1945 German skies were blanketed by American, British, and Soviet aircraft.

Adolf Galland was dismissed from his position as General of Fighters because Germany was overwhelmed by Allied air attacks and Reichsmarschall Hermann Göring needed a scapegoat. In February 1945, Göring authorized Galland to form a Jagdverband (Special Fighter Squadron) of experienced pilots to fly the Me 262.
