FULL-OPTION KIT
• 1:35 KV-2
• 1:35 LRDG Chevrolet
• 1:35 Sd.Kfz.7 eight-ton halftrack
• 1:16 Jagdpanther static-display
Takom have answered many people's prayers with the news of
a newly-tooled M3 Lee and M3 Grant in 1:35. Fro the boxtop
artwork, we can see that the M3 Lee will include markings
for a Soviet machine from the Lend-Lease programme of
WW2, and it will surely include US markings too among the
four options. There's no interior, but the hatches can be fitted
open or closed and the tracks come in the form of 'link-and-
length' runs. The British Grant will have the cast turret plus the
appropriate markings, although the crew figures shown in both
box illustrations will not be included. More news soon.
www.pocketbond.co.uk
Tamiya initially released this newly tooled M1A2
as a 'static display' model which is ideal for those
who need neither the functionality nor expense
of the radio-controlled kit, but where's the fun in
that? Recently however, the Full Option version
was announced and this electrically-powered
model will include full running, rotating turret,
elevating main gun plus engine sounds - that's
more like it! To join this behemoth, Tamiya have
recreated the same vehicle in 1:48, for those with
narrower workbenches and shallower pockets.

ALSO ON THE WAY FROM TAKOM
1:35 M3 MEDIUM TANK SERIES
Takom have been very productive lately, and we can look forward to the AML-60 and AML-90 armoured cars, the
Finnish ItPsv 90 Marksman self-propelled anti-aircraft gun plus the mighty Russian Kamaz Typhoon K MRAP, all in
1:35. More details soon.

THIS MONTH IN TAMIYA MODEL MAGAZINE…
With their existing range of stunning Tiger I kits already
a success, it makes perfect sense for RFM to create the
Sturmtiger, but even so, the announcement came as a
welcome surprise. The kit will include a full interior with
38cm rocket-rounds. More details soon.
