Cool looking kits. I like Plastic Soldier Kits too but I really wish they came with decals. Thanks for posting Tony…Happy New Year!

Cool looking kit!

I hope you're having a wonderful time and stay safe over there!

I just just pulled out a box of old loose Battlefield minis which I would like to identify and this should definitely help. Thanks.

Thanks for sharing. I have been to the WWI museum in Kansas City and WWII in New Orleans. In March I will be in London and Paris, so this museum and the Invalids are on my to do list.

Cuanto hay de ahí al suelo😮😅 pues imagínate las pedradas catapultadas traídas a 200 caballos y 800 látigos.. como en el señor de los anillos 😂😂😂😂🎉

Nice typical London weather to see the sights, hope you kept warm, Enjoy!👍

What website do you go to to buy your models?

Unbox it let’s see the content

It's five years on and I'm revisiting this game. I was just thinking how your Blind General version would have affected your game.

What was the website you got the flags and where did you get that Pope?

Germans lost Chew nissia because the British Paras took the Airfield at Bone just before the German paras got there. If the Germans had won the race, they would have been better able to defend North Chew nissia.

Don't know about Marders, but Pz Abteilung 605 had Pz Jager 1 during Crusader.

A group cannot move diagonally? A group can only move forward or wheel?

Nice unpacking video Tony. And kudos to you for asking about the Mk.Va. If you don't ask you don't get. Maybe they'll do a Marmon Herrington with the Breda cannon.

cant go wrong with smodel. i had types 97s te-kes lately. they fit well with ibg 94s

when you go to ole blighty maybe you should go to the PSC hq and set those guys straight.

Humbers !!!! . I havnt seen them available before.

what rule set are you using for crusader project??

the mk2 was used in Russia with no side skirts the mk 9 75mm gun not sent to Russia no side skirts used in Russia used my spare tracks for archer cast the hull my self usd spare hull for honey as re-con turret less tanks just cast lower hull .

A very informative video Tony. Very useful for pointing out pitfalls and how to overcome them.

The only Krupp Protze Kf 70s in North Africa were the version with the 20mm AA guns. The Kf 70s used were mainly Horch schwerer Einheits-PKW" Kfz. 70.

The rear guards are easy enough to fit, but the front ones need to be located with reference to the front box art.

The spare on the Mk IV should be on the side hull, but it doesn't fit! The locator for the wheel is at the front of the hull, but is easy to mistake for a bit of flash and carve it off. The wheel should be glued on where the triangular pattern of screws is.

The 'bumper' is to the right of the engine box , just above the Mk IV turret, on the sprue.

personally myself i like the PSC kits. they’re by no means a “model” kit. they’re made for gaming. that being said my PSC kits are for late war eastern front. operation bagration, defensive battles around warsaw etc etc. i’ve been watching your vids Tony and all i can say is that you’re a brave man for tangling with the early war british kit. doing the deep dive such as you have. kudos to you for that sir!!!!!

Soldados británicos con las piernas entablilladas😂😂 sobre los carros porque ambulancia allí los camellos con camillas por los lados😂😂😂 estilo 1.919

Sigues sin oir a tus hombres, muévete sal de ahí charles!!!! Lanzo humos.. cover fireeee enemies ahead!!!!! Lest go move running gogogogo..😂😂😂!!!!

Fontenoy. Named after the battle.

Biafra is a Nigerian province. There was a Civil War. I can remember back in 1972 there was a big campaign to raise money for the Biafran refugees. I took part in a jumble sale (yard sale) and managed to get my picture in the local paper.

7 hours by train from Aberdeen to London.

The Battlecruiser Raids were to draw out part of the Home Fleet and defeat it. The British Battlecruisers were based at Rosyth and they were the German target.

Alderman comes from ealdorman. Anglo Saxon word for a minor king or chief. Equivalent of Dux or Princeps in Latin. Evolved into the title of Earl and Alderman which are Council leaders in some parts of the English Midlands and Southern Yorkshire. Scottish equivalent is Provost.

Fray Bentos is a port in Uruguay. It is also the trade name of a company that processed meat there, notably Corned Beef, known as 'Bully Beef' that became a staple of rations in the trenches in WW1 and the earlier part of WW2. They still exist and do wonderful tinned Steak and Kidney and Steak pies. Became less popular during WW2 as SPAM tinned processed luncheon meat was used in rations.

It seems a decent model, pity for the lack of open/close hatches, there are on the market some 1/72 figures that would've been ideals for this tank.

Crusaders for Operation Crusader! A great find Tony.

Very nice models Tony. You're so lucky to be able to get these models locally. I wish that they were available for us downunder.

Tony, thanks for the unboxing! As we discussed before (so this is mainly a comment for those who might wish to purchase) I will reprint and make right anything that comes damaged or broken in shipping. I just want everyone to get what they paid for! Thanks again.

Really nice models. The IV E should have open vents on the engine compartment for African (Trop) service. Those Pz IIIs are amazing, love the nose spare track set to take the spare wheels! Crusader and Gazala are my favorite periods.

There is a Scots term for hating wasting anything: Thran. My Mum's generation, who lived through the war, got used to using everything and wasting nothing, are described as thran.

Always call them Hat.

While ago i had the worst idea ever to do a czech uprising hetzer. I ended doing the old esci kit and i fucked it up badly. Definitely there are not kits for unpatient people.

Being a kit from mid '70s, for today's standards logically could seems a bit archaic, but when they started to sell, it was a fresh departure from Airfix, there were a lot of subjects that weren't produced before, and after all were well detailed, I build a lot of them, such as the Matilda III or the Pz II, Marder III and Hummel.P.s. for a better tank commander's figure, you could see some plastic sets from Orion, Caesar or Preiser.

It dates from the 1970s. Biggest problem with this kit is the roadwheels. They are moulded as a solid one piece where they should be in two halves. Later releases had link and length injection moulded tracks. Thats what Esci did with most of their 1/72 range of armour in subsequent re-releases.

I am not a morning person, lol

Cool.

Your firing system idea sound similar to that of Fireball Forward.

UK tank units are former cavalry regiments so use Squadron and Regiment rather than Platoon and Battalion.

The shorts get views because they pop-up on the main UA-cam page and people know they are quick vids so they are more liable to check them out and they reach a larger audience. Basically think of them as ads to rope unsuspecting people in to convince them to drop dough on airbrushes!

It is a lovely kit but the instructions are wrong. The straight gun trail is the original, I believe it is the Mk.5 carriage from the 18 pounder field gun and is only suitable for the 18/25 pounder. On that carriage the turntable was a separate item, usually carried on top of the limber. The 'bent' carriage was developed by Vickers for another howitzer (can't remember the details) and has the turntable attached to the underside of the trail so it could be hinged down quickly, that one is suitable for the other three variants. The muzzle brake was introduced in 1942 to increase stability when using 'super charge' mainly in the anti-tank role (the 6 pounders were not arriving quickly enough). Guns in the Far East did not receive the muzzle brake. The pheasant was the new 17 pounder anti tank gun mounted on a 25 pounder carriage (the bent one), they were sent out as an UOR in early 1943 to take on the Tigers in Tunisia.
