Jack P Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 Hi Guys. I am unable to find any suppliers of 1:43 military kits, from the WW2 era. Have I missed something or are there very few kits on the market? If someone could point me in the right direction that would be great! Jack Edit: Obviously this is for use in conjunction with Railway models. I'm not so daft as to come to railway site and ask about the military Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had thought that 1:48 might have to be the closest, do you know how far off they look? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack If its WW2 British and American tanks etc that you are looking for most of the layouts I have seen use Tamiya 1/48 kits they do a whole range that's constantly growing. You can buy them in most good model shops and hobby craft often stock a few.. The manufacturers link to the UK importers is attached below I hope it helps Mark J http://www.hobbyco.net/scripts/cgiip.exe/WService=WSHobby/stk/productcatalogue.p?session=OlIjjCJbppiMjkiNZpXblkzkcpjnkwdi&catSrch=TAMIYA%201/48%20MILITARY&cType=Brands&cLevel=Bottom&iDataGrpId=278502 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger H Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 Have a look at www.gramodels.co.uk. There is a 1/43 Cromwell and a warlflat to put it on. Some of the lorries may be relevant but I can't be sure as military is not my thing. Also I think the list shown is out of date so worth giving them a call. I'm sure they had an additional tank at the Folkestone show this year. Also look out for Solido Shermans at toy fairs - may be expensive now.
