Bronco Models -New releases

[Smudge]

Hi all

As usual Bronco have pushed the boat out this month with a number of new releases;

Kit#CB35109 Russian Self-Propelled Su-152 (KV-14) (September 1943 production)



Kit #CB35136 M1114 Up-Armoured Vehicle w/XM153 CROWS II



Kit # CB35072 M24 Chaffee (Post-War Version) Service in Asian Army Force



Kit # AB3558 WWII US Light Weapons & Equipment Set


Kit # CB35114 German 88mm L71 FlaK 41 Anti-Aircraft Gun w/Sd.Ah.202 Trailer



RE the last kit; I am working on a review of Bronco's last 88mm, kit CB35067 1/35 German 88mm Flak 41 Anti-Aircraft Gun W/Crew. which is in effect the same kit less the Sd.Ah.202 Trailer, so watch this space

Bronco are really churning out the new stuff eh Smudge - good subjects all and popular too. Nice to see the Crows II make an appearance, shame they're not releasing it as a stand alone add-on with all these luvverly MATV's and MRAPs on the market eh?

Dickie; I wouldn't be surprised if Bronco did release this seperately if it is used on other vehicles. They do sell ammo sets from arty seperately, and also small arms sets. If I hear anything I'll let you know.

Boo, Spud; the flak 41 is excellant. I've just taken the photos of CB35067 so I'll post something ASAP. The detail is outstanding. I'll keep the text to a minimum the parts speak for themselves.

Hi Spud

I try to avoid prices in reviews because its subjective depending on personal circumstances. For example I upset my mate 'suggesting' a kit was too expensive (not for him because he seems to have bottomless pockets). Also, a lot depends on the country and the importers mark ups so some companies appear to be much cheaper in some countries than others? Or is that just me?

The one I'm reviewing is the CB35067 1/35 German 88mm Flak41 Anti-Aircraft Gun W/Crew. The new Flak41 (CB35114) doesn't have the crew but does have the Sonderanhänger 202 trailer, so I presume they will have similar prices when they hit the shelves, but until they do we don't really know.

The RRP for CB35067 appears to be around £34 but Modelhobbies have it for £30.59 plus shipping (£3.55?)

Wonderland Models who 'specialise' in Bronco have it for £33.99 plus shipping (£3?) www.wonderlandmodels.com/products/bronco-135-german-88mm-flak-41-anti-aircraft-gun/

The shipping prices are UK not sure about abroad?

With six figures, a decent set of ammo ( with PE and decals) and a slide moulded barrel with rifling. The rangefinder is lurvely. Might try and post review today. Pic heavy anyway
