Yes, the size difference is not great moving from 1 to 35 scale to a 1 to 32 scale. But in the case of a detailed piece that includes a full interior, every bit helps.

For you model makers, Academy has a line of WW II AFVs with full interiors. Included in Academy's line thus far are two versions of the Tiger, the Lee, all three major US tank destroyers, the Achilles and couple versions of the Stuart. They are also in the 1:35 scale. I understand that Jay put together one of the Tigers for Frank.

It's the best Tiger I have in my collection. I'll take some pictures this weekend.

I know you think thats alot of money Frank, but consider this, muti-media model kits, kits with several different types of component parts like Brass, Photo Etched parts, Rubber, Resin pieces & Vaccum Formed parts ect.. can run upwards to $100.00 nowadays and you have to paint and assemble them yourself and for that price you had better know what your doing. For example, the 1/35 scale Dragon Jagdtiger Jay has that i sent him to build for me, i paid 70 dollars for 15 years ago. Food for thought.

No kidding? - $100? Wow. Well, don't get me wrong, I love the winter version (I posted a link above). I have to think about it.

So true Jay--you can't buy it in a store or from the web!
