MORE new, ready built model from EWM. A German 250/1 half track model. Come ready built, just add crewman, machine guns and the stowage supplied if required, where you want to put them.

Made from highly detailed Plastic polymer so unlike other makers resin or plastic models, you can drop these and they BOUNCE. Yes, we have been showing this to customers at shows by dropping the models onto concrete floors.

Our models bounce, they don't shatter or fragment. Even the tiny detail is good. We are using a great new material that's delivering awesome results. Come as see them on our trade stand at Crisis next week or Warfare later in November where we shall be dropping our new models. "DROP BY" !!
So, a new German 250/1 early half track, comes READY BUILT. Just add LMG's crewman and option stowage items if required. The detail on this model is our best yet.

I built this a few weeks ago. Its from the original master made by Steve Cox when he worked at Skytrex.


I built the model so that it can be moulded and then cast as a single casting in our new plastic polymer material. I have been house hunting by the seaside and took a few days working on some of the local beaches there.

It was a beautiful day and my dog Chester kept me company as I saw no one else on the beach all afternoon.

So, the model got made, moulded this week and cast today. Out now, will be on the new webstore, but if you want one before, just email me. These are £11.50 GBP ready built with all the optional bits.

Offered in two versions so the 250/2 cable layer as a limited edition model.

This comes with a crewman, laying off pole for the cable, some reels, LMGS etc. I only plan to make these in limited numbers. So, available at £13.50 GBP each.

A Steyer 1500 GS general purpose truck for the German Army. They were used for everything and every where. The model comes ready built, all you have to do is glue the cab roof on after you have fitted the driver if you want them, that's it. Available now at £10.50 GBP each.

The new website is building well. Got some lovely new graphics being done by my good friend Adam Todd.

See you at Crisis or Warfare next month?

Thanks for including the scale in the title!

Great looking models.

Is there source for these in the U.S.?

I watched Paul drop one (a very fine little Dingo, as I recall, all cast in one piece) on the floor at the Bovington show during the summer. Seeing how it's a tank museum, the floors are nothing if not rock hard concrete.

It did indeed just bounce!

I've seen the drop test too! I find it rather frightening…… but no harm was done to the model!

All still in use in Normandy……….

Very nice models Paul, looking forward to seeing some of the new stuff on the website.

donlowry,
I've ordered directly from them (east coast USA) and had absolutely no issues. I'm not aware of any US outlet.

Hi Fella's,
Thank you all for your comments. So, yes we have a website, BUT ALL new items will be added to the brand new website currently being built. So, if you would like any of the new things shown here and on our Facebook site or other forums, just drop me an email telling me what your after.
The website is taking a little longer than planned, and we are smack in the middle of major show season, rubbish planning on my part!

Thanks genew49 for the link addition and comments, both much appreciated.
Drop tests planned for all future shows. Come along and drop one at our trade stand yourself!

I can see many double entomtra 's around this one!

I've bought a number of their vehicles and trench sections via the webpage to the U.S. – no issues at all and actually many came here faster than things shipped in the U.S.
