I'd never heard of these guys; apparently they started in 1982 (after I 'parked' the hobby), sold up in 1996, took a 25-year holiday and are now back.

Rear echelon mainly but an interesting PaK40 'portee' on a French half-track:

Could be an interesting one for Normandy games.

Has anyone built any of these? Are they any good?

They are new to me and look quite expensive! My main experience of 20mm resin is the cheap and cheerful Frontline stuff.

Generally nice stuff and cover some unusual items too (like a wood powered Opel Blitz, I had to have one of those.)

I agree with Martin in that they look a tad expensive for a semi decent model

I think if your paying that sort of money you may as well get the best in 1/76th scale for me thats Millicast

Their SOMUA SPG looks very good.

Milicast are pretty good, but stock availability is a bit patchy.

There's always the question of whether 20mm and 1/76 are the same thing…
