Question about there models, do they use hard plastic (HIPS) the stuff GW uses or is it PVC, that rubbery plastic that privateer press and cool mini or not uses? |

Rubicon uses the hard styrene plastic. I have several of their kits and I highly recommend them – the detail and ease of building makes them worth the price! |

yes I agree lovely models |

Agreed. They are very good and well made. |

And are they true 1/56 scale? Some companies say 1/56 but they aren't. |

the Sherman is exactly the same size as the italeri/warlord one so they match well together |

There is a problem with the Sherman, the 76mm turret is bad. The rear of the turret is wrong, too square, and where the gun mantlet meets the turret there is a big gap. Very disappointing. The 75mm turret is very good though. |

Thanks. Do they have soldiers too or going to? I would love to see some high quality DAK soldiers. By any chance do you know if they are a UK company or….? |

Alittle disappointed that the Tiger I doesn't come with zimmerit for the mid to late war variants. |
