Does anyone know if there are 1/76th / 1/72nd or 20mm models – plastic or resin – of the German 'Doddlebug' Flying Bomb and it's launch ramp? Also the same for the V2 rocket, launch pad, and transporter? Thanks – Squibzy

I haven't bought or built this one but Mach 2 does a V1 Launch site in 1/72.

when I sold the Shell Hole scenic range ( Queens Hussar ) to Lancer miniatures the masters included a doodle bug & ramp "master" that had never gone into production . It may be worth dropping him a line?

Thanks to all of you above! I'll probably spend a very interesting half hour looking at all these links!! ;-)
Also, thanks to "ridgeback123". I wondered where Shell Hole Scenics had gone! Last time I "saw you" was at SELWG about 3 years back. I'll certainly drop Lancer an email.

Shell Hole Scenics figure & vehicle ranges still in house & going strong it was only the Resin buildings that went to Lancer & I have been trading at SELWG every year. Currently you will find me & my stuff on the co-owned 20MMzone stand ( former Skytrex) along with Pauls Early War Miniatures ranges

Ah Frog, now that brings back memories, they had some half decent kit's but never any armour:-(

Thanks, Ian (Shell Hole Scenics). I'll look you up come this year's SELWG! As I'm getting back into WWII, and one of my particular likes is 1940, I'll be glad to visit Early War Miniatures as well. – Squibzy
