Andy's Hobby HQ to release a 1/16 M113A1/M113A1 ACAV

Thanks for that, as mentioned, I’ve heard there’s better on the way - for the T50 at least - so I’ll wait on that.

A better T50? From where? I’m very interested in this Turret.

Best regards

FC Modeltrend is very hit and miss. The resin is super brittle.

I have their British Antennae bases which are very good. Their Buna conversion for Stuart is also good, but their chains for the Nagmachon and their headlights for Leopard were pure rubbish. Their upgrade for the Tamiya Horsch 1A has lots of errors.

And yes, they never show their prints only the CAD.

I troll the net to see if anyone has used, and has shown pictures of, the product before I consider them now.

I was told ‘in confidence’, so unfortunately…

I agree. Many of their offerings can be F*C^%#@ Model Turd.

Their print quality might have improved recently however. Some photos of their actual 3D prints posted on FB:





For 1/16 scale figurines, the details are too soft for my taste.







Zippo conversion in 1/16:
