Hi everyone. New here but not really. I was on the old forum a few years ago but never signed up for the new one until now.
I am working on the AFV M1128 MGS and here is where I am currently at. It will be more up to date as I am adding the Blast Models driver enhancement kit and cooling system. They are not shown yet because I am waiting to add them as I need the Eduard PE update set which I do not have.
Hoping someone can help. I am looking for the Eduard 1/35 M-1128 MGS 36068 set. Eduard says discontinued and I contacted them and they are not re-issuing it. I also searched the usual online stores and can’t find a set. If anyone has a set available and not using it, I will pay a reasonable price for it. I am located in the USA.
This is the set I am looking for. I mostly need just the two vented boxes on the rear of the commander’s turret hatch, the two boxes on the ends of the main gun housing and all the .50 cal gun shield parts.
Thanks for the images. The one with the mine roller and slat armor is cool. I originally planned to do my MGS as one used in Iraq but as Terminator said in the post below, no slat armor for the MGS kit available.
I do have the Trumpeter M1132 Stryker ESV with the mine roller and plan to start that one soon. No slat armor going on the ESV kit either but I do plan to add the Eduard additional armor and blast panels. The slat armor is twice as much as I paid for the Trumpeter kit so passed on it.
Here is an M1126 image I found that says it is in Kandahar. It has the blast panels.
As you said, no slat armor available for the MGS kit. I was thinking of getting the M1126 slat armor and modifying it to fit the MGS but the MGS slat armor bulges out at the sides. The PE slat armor is really expensive though so passed on it.
