Nice. I figured these would be coming based on their Stryker w/Javelin (M1126 CROWS-J) that was recently released. It looks like sprue W from that kit, plus the paper rations.
I wouldn’t call it “groundbreaking”. It is just another plastic weapons/accessory set. Maybe the first of the Javelin, but not groundbreaking.
@HeavyArty It is groundbreaking in the plastic realm because this is the first molds of a modern ATGM outside of resin and 3-D printing. The last “modern US ATGM” in plastic was the 1/35 Dragon ATGM in their figure sets.
One can now arm modern 1/35 figures by buying something COTS and OOTB from a LHS (Local Hobby Shop…do we still have those around? ).
Meaning…one can take a plastic M72 LAW or AT-4 into “battle” with plastic Army men, but one sure can’t kill a tank unless one has a tank or ATGM IFV. This would really help with the “NOT a Tank Destroyer Campaign” starting this October.
Yes James_Lee. I feel like the market would be large enough to have room for both resin and plastic versions. I am eager to get this one to compare with yours. My hope is that all of these efforts improve and advance our little hobby. All the best!
I see Dan models has produced another figure with a javelin DAN 35158 2022 Ukrainian Soldier with FGM-148 Javelin. I have left out the rest of the description
Microwold Games LLC is selling the AFV-Club Javelin ATGM set for $24 USD. Probably not the cheapest on market, but that should give you a ballpark price for it. MSRP is said to be $30 USD.
