ianmacc Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 (edited) https://www.a2models.nl/index.php?item=1_76-dublo-models&action=page&group_id=22&lang=nl I didn’t find this. It was user Mike Harvey, but I thought it warranted a thread of its own. Obscure Dutch manufacturer of cars and trucks in 00, H0, TT, N and Z. Some unusual choices and gap fillers plus some entries into a crowded marketplace. They appear to be pre-coloured 3D prints... Example is a 1:76 Opel Manta.

fodenway Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 Some very interesting models in there, most of which appear to have been scaled down from old English and French Dinkies, Corgi and other diecasts. It's a pity they have solid windows, particularly at the price - I need a car transporter full of Fiat 500's but can't justify the expenditure.

bridgiesimon Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 Also a shame they are pre-painted, or are they colour printed? As mentioned, a good range but pricey Simon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bridgiesimon Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 ok, found the English version, yes they are colour printed, not so impressed now. There are some models there I am tempted with but think they would need a ful repaint to ensure they blend in with the other vehicles I already have.

RMweb Premium acg5324 Posted June 20, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted June 20, 2018 Some interesting models there, shame it’s 1/160 for n gauge.....and 11.50euro postage. They do look useful for the background and they do a Reliant Supervan. My Dad only ever drove three wheelers and had a Supervan. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold ian Posted June 20, 2018 RMweb Gold Share Posted June 20, 2018 Some interesting models there, shame it’s 1/160 for n gauge But he does offer comissioned orders as well as print and scan services. I suspect that he would be amenable to printing some at 1/148 if you asked nicely. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could possibly use some of the proprietary 1:87 500s from Wiking or whoever? If they are all a constant scale against each other it wouldn’t be noticeable.

ianmacc Posted June 20, 2018 Author Share Posted June 20, 2018 (edited) Wonder how much he would charge to scan the Dinky mk4 Zodiac into 1:76?! Can’t see anyone else making one even though they were so distinctive and the last British Ford. Edited June 20, 2018 by ianmacc Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides which, they'd look completely lost on a 1/76 car transporter. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
