What a fantastic deal. These guys know us Wargamers and how we think. |

That really is very impressive: I look forward to the 20mm version. |

PSC further proves that they are the best source for wargamers. Dunno if/when I'm going to get these, though I may well end up gaming Barbarossa or France at some point. |

There is also a sprue shot available on PSC website:

I love the way they keep expanding the range. They get my business, that's for sure. |

If that is in fact how they're packaging the kit, I for one will build out the models as Panzer 38(t)s, the. Use all the other remaining it's for assorted sci fi kitbashing projects, including the redundant crew figures. Nothing would go to waste here for me, as all of these optional bits are pure gold to us ne'er-do-wells who make our sci fi vehicles the Old School way… Leland R.

I am very interested to see how PSC deal with supplementary kits, i. e. hetzers, because sci fi kit bashing is of no interest to me. the common use parts are quite low from what I can see and would squeeze onto a quarter sprue. that would leave plenty of room for the hetzer itself, a second dose of common parts and even an alternative 152 version, flamethrower? and maybe even the recce carrier version for the sci fi people. |

because sci fi kit bashing is of no interest to me. Watch the watch…. Watch the watch…. Send me your leftovers…. You know you want to! Watch the watch… See how it shines? Watch it spin…

Perhaps the extra crew members could be used on other vehicles, or even as ground artillery crews? I cannot quite tell what sort of uniform they are wearing. In case you build the kit as Marders, the extra tank turrets with guns could perhaps be used to arm a few small bunkers on a fortified line. Germans sometimes used tank turrets for that sort of purposes. And the extra guns for the Marders look like just the right thing for arming PaK bunkers – just have them sticking out of a bunker window in a menacing manner. |

Griefbringer, bingo:

So from a single kit, you can make a whole Marder platoon, and there will be still enough bits left over to arm a minor fortress line with emplaced turrets and PaK bunkers. Just needs a few MG bunkers for extra dakka… |
