Nice one James! i never seen that before, is it 1/35 or 1/32?

1/32 Matts. I guess they are going to do a series of Napolionics. This caught my fancy. There is no dog though which was kind of disappointing.

that would be nice if they come out with more sets like this :)

I'm still waiting for someone to bring out the Swedish "karoliner" army in 1/35 or 32

They fought all over eastern europe and russia so i think it would be sweet to build something like that, the only ones now are in 1/72 and also the Prince August "cast yourself" lead figures

Here you have a link to some reading about it, a lot of text but very interesting, how a small country like sweden could be a world power! :)

Email Alexander at Master Box and tell him that you thought the kit came with a dog. They might very well send you a dog. They also might add a dog to the kit. Master Box really likes to get custoer advice and/feedback.

Email Alexander at Master Box and suggest they make those figures and why you think they'd be popular. Master Box really likes to get customers' suggestions for figures and/or kits and are pretty good at delivering. Witness all those civilian sets and/or sets with civilians in them.

Cheers from Peter

Is that the old Peerless Max come Italeri kit? If so, then it'll be a pretty nice build.

Hi Peter.
It sure is. The box art is mis-leading. It shows a canvas cover on the trailer. But the trailer does not come with the canvas cover. This kit goes back to 1975. I was ten back then.

At least you got the trailer. It doesn't come in the Italeri/Tesor's kit.

Both MasterBox and MiniArt are in a hot zone in the Ukraine (although the latter announced plans to move out of the Crimea). You may not get a response from them for a while.

Unfortunately there are more problems over there right now. I wont say more as I dont want to break the no politics rule. I wonder though if they would do as Matts suggests. That would be very cool.

Nice decals there Mats. Techmod seems to have a huge selection. As odd as it may sound I've found that the decals on the blue backed paper work better then the decals on the white backed paper. The white sheets seem to resist setting solution. While the blue ones work great. Not sure if it is an age thing or what
