Do the Milicast 1/76th vehicles mix well with the line of AB miniatures? Some of the Milicast stuff looks fantastic. I am starting a platoon of infantry for Battlegroup Overlord and am trying to find some vehicles to supplement. Specifically looking for jeeps, M4 Sherman, trucks, anti tank guns, and recon stuff like the M20 and M 8. Thanks |

I like all of the Milicast tanks with my AB stuff except for the SdKfz. 251s. They just seem too small. The rest is all fabulous. |

Models are great, but make sure you spend enough to make the postage less of a hit. Minimum postage is £5.50 GBP (why? In UK can send up to 1kg for £2.80 GBP so even making some allowance for packing materials, £5.50 GBP seems a bit strong. Small items can often be sent at "large letter" rate, which is £1.00 GBP to £2.00 GBP depending on weight.) Personally, I am going to be using MMS models for my 1/76 vehicles- models are excellent, compatible with the brilliant AB figures and postage is 15% supplement, so more economic for small orders, up to about £35.00 GBP |

Thanks for the MMS recommendation. Never heard of them, but they've got some great models. Will have to indulge….next pay. |

I should have mentioned MMS as well-- I have both and they mix perfectly. I just like that there is less building and clean-up to the Milicast ones. |
