Noice! Must have taken you a long time to paint all those. I'm not a tabletop gamer but I have a few Warhammer kits just because they look cool #Tongue

Have you built the Apocalypse tank model yet?

LOL, ya, I have been working on all those for a few years off and on. And that is another reason they are all different regiment's, along with I like kill team more then larger scale play.

I do have that Apocalypse tank, however its still on a shelf in the box, on the sprues, with all my other plastic shame... Maybe some day I will get to it.

The company that released the Apocalypse tank have recently announced that they are also making a Grizzly tank model kit too. I might get this one if it's not to expensive.

LOL, crap, they know how to suck money out of me, I will have to keep an eye out for that one as well.

If I do get that, I should think about some kind of diorama of those two, maybe even get two grizzly's so its like a fighting chance, maybe in like a coffee table with glass ontop, like maybe the screen from Fury with one destroyed the other moving for rear armor...? Dont know yet...

Got my Grizzly tank toady, was a bit more expensive then I hoped, was about $73... But thats okay.

But I "think" they added two cool 1/35mm mini-figures for free, I dont see any other kits advertising them, so I think it was just for free...

I've seen some complaints that the scale is wong with the Grizzly as its bigger then their previous Apocalypse tank kit :/

Next up from Border Models they are releasing a kit of the Kirov!

Ya, I can confirm the scales are off. TBH, I kind of wonder if both maybe wrong...

I have not been able to assemble either yet, but you might be able to tell from the chassis.

I think these are just meant to be display kits, so they may not care about scale?

(Funny... I am watching puppet master 3 for the 1st time, and I think I can hear Hell March in the back ground music...)

Doesnt stop any one from making it a RC tank.

I think the Kirov is already released, but at $80... I am 50/50.

The Kirov comes with electronic parts for lights, sounds and spinning propellers, which is probably why it cost so much.

I've been planing for several years to scratch build/3D print a giant Kirov with lights and sounds. It would probably cost me more then $80 to get all the materials I'd need for the project so I might just buy kit now.
