Tiger I scallops
Posted by mtgdragon on Thursday, January 5, 2017 10:42 AM

While reading Tamiya's 'Steel Wheeled Tiger I' book, I  saw scallops offered by Anvil Miniatures but can't seem to find the company on google. Anyone know where I can purchase !/35 scallops or how to find Anvil? Thanks

I believe he's talking about tank threads.

It's the scallopped reinforcing strip/flange between the underside of the sponsons and the lower hull sides.

It's actually moulded in place on the Dragon kits.

Exactly :)  My Dragon kit has them molded on but they are missing the studs that drop through the top of the scallop. Anvil Miniatures sells replacement scallops with the studs but it's starting to look like anvil is no longer in business. The Tamiya book has a picture of them. Looks like I'll be adding my own.
