I'm trying without too much luck to find some trucks to increase my motor pool as I transition over to 15mm WWII. I already know what's out there for Battlefront and have run across QRF, Forged in Battle, Quality Castings, OG/CD.

What I'm looking for is if I missed any manufacturers who make trucks for any of the following:

Early War – French/Belgians
Italians
US Army
British Army (Early/Africa/Late)

PSC do 15mm British trucks, and bizarrely Zvezda do a very nice Matador.

Peter Pig also do lots trucks of various types (and a lovely Citroën car).

By all means check out Gaming Models:
gamodls.com

They have an excellent selection of many hard to find items including a very good collection of soft skin vehicles for a wide variety of combatants. Add in they will do a basic color for you (I like to have mine painted black, serves as primer) and you get 1 free vehicle for each 10 you order. Always gotten excellent service.

Although in the UK, Butler's Printed Models butlersprintedmodels.co.uk seems to have a developing selection of soft-skins.

Gaming Models is awesome!

Looks like I'll have to check out Gaming Models. I've ordered from BPM for my 1/144 moderns…might have a look there as well.

Thanks for the tip from Zvezda. I actually have the PSC German Medium Truck kit and I built up some of the Mercedes trucks from it.

The QRF French WW2 vehicles are amongst their better ones.

I like the Chevrolet truck – I tweaked it to a Dodge and built it up as a tanake.

I'm less keen on the Laffly … I'd buy from them Battlefront.

Command Decision as sold by Old Glory UK has a slightly different French list to the related Skytrex line.

I like the AMD 80

The Butlers line is coming on fine.

with all these injection molded kits in 15mm it might be worth it to pick up the old Airfix guides that show how to convert those classic kits in 1/76 scale into various other vehicles. They have great ideas!

I also love Gaming Models.

Check out Peter Pig WW2 – they have a number of odd vehicles including French cars and a lorry…
