Hi I am looking to expand my tank collection for BA. I need recommendations on nice models from other companies other than Warlords for a little variety. Any suggestions? Around same price level or lower. Thanks. |

What scale are you looking for? |

Blitzkrieg have a good range in 1/56 resin, Rubicon produce a nice range in kit from. |

I second Rubicon. Not only their vehicles but their kits of alternate builds is excellent. |

I've used Blitzkrieg and like them.

JTFM and Army Group North are both excellent. |

Rubicon plastics. Usually you have multiple build options for variants in a kit. Prices in line with WL. I find Co. B to be more expensive. If you are in the US here is a good source:

Do the Rubicon vehicles come with decals? |

Rubicon do come with decals, but you have to research what they are and where they go as they don't provide any details. You do get lots though! |

Some, like me, use 1/48th vehicles too. Lots of discussions on the pros/cons of that vs. 1/56th scale on TMP. Use a separate search engine to check into those. |

Blitzkrieg vehicles do not come with decals (at least the ones I received). |
Big Red | 13 Jan 2019 4:56 p.m. PST |
Schogun, you are correct, decals and paint were not included :) |

For Resin I like Blitzkrieg Trenchworxs JTFM (if you can wait long enough) Mad Bobs Company B have not seen first hand and are a bit more expensive if in UK If in US then these also might be of interest 1/50th scale Precision Model Design Plastic Rubicon |

I am just getting started with vehicles for my Bolt Action forces, so this is good info. So far I just assembled 1 Stuart tank, from Warlord Games. I did not realize when I purchased it that it did not come with any decals. I assumed those were included, but now I know to purchase standalone. So appreciate this info. Thanks. |
