Default For the week of March 28, 2010

Spring has arrived; March is about to depart; and the blue bonnets and other wild flowers have finally made their debut in central Texas. We'll begin the celebration my featuring three 1:35 Tamiya Masterwork German World War II AFV's at very difficult to beat prices--all from Military Issue.

We'll start with the lowest priced of the three. At $78.95, it's the Panzer IV Ausf. H.



Replicating the most common German tank of World War II, this professionally assembled and hand painted, 1/35 scale, plastic and metal model features textured surfaces, an opening commander's hatch, an aluminum 7.5 cm KwK 40 gun barrel, an anti-aircraft machine gun, turret and side armor, detailed metal tracks, authentic 2nd Panzer Division markings, and more. Measures 7¾" long and arrives ready to display.

For only a buck more at $79.95, our second pick is the Sturmgeschutz III Ausf. G.



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.

We've saved the baddest boy for last. Priced at $84.95, it's the Panther Ausf. G Late Version.



Replicating the most widely produced and final variant of the deadly Panther, this professionally assembled and hand painted, 1/35 scale, plastic and metal model features textured surfaces, an aluminum gun barrel with a detailed muzzle brake, an anti-aircraft machine gun, side armor, photo-etched engine grille parts, realistic metal tracks, authentic 116th Panzer Division markings, and more. 9¾" long; arrives ready to display.

Continuing with our World War II Axis theme, but this time going to the air, we feature the Dragon 1:72 scale Me109G-2 Trop de la 385 Squadriglia, 150 Gruppo Caccia Terrestre (Italian AF). The Toy Federation has one for your hanger, if you have the $12.95.



During World War II, the Bf 109 (me 109) was the backbone of the Luftwaffe fighter force, serving on all fronts and also in the air forces of its European allies. Even though the superior Fw 190 began to replace the Bf 109 in some units as early as the summer of 1941, production of the Bf 109 actually rose until the closing months of the war and it remained the most numerous Luftwaffe fighter. By war's end, Germany had built over 30,000 Bf 109's. Production of the Bf 109 continued on after the war in Czechoslovakia until 1949 and in Spain until 1958. It remains to this day the most produced fighter in history.

Get one here before they surrender:

We go modern with our final selection from Beck's. It's the Corgi 1:144 scale Avro Vulcan K.2 Tanker, No. 50 Sq., RAF Waddington, 1982 [AA31203] priced at $41.95.
