Hi,

open the following German HP (see link attached) and don't worry about. Fancy photos made, esp. when concerning those of E-series-Tanks.

< www.nast-sonderfahrzeuge.de>

and for an easy way to find the correct link:

yeah Wink E-series ... however, I will look around when back at home to find this link to a German HP where are shown very interesting photos of E-series tanks in action, very nice "stuff". But don't wonder what they are presenting Bow Down ...

Concerning AAA mounted on chassis E-50/75, I' ve asssembled years ago those Verlinden products of twin AAA 3.7mm and 5.5mm on Panther chassis

Thanks Melchior. When i will look into getting it direct. Nixce to see another E-series fan. I ahve the 10 to 100 as well as the Mause. But haven't gotten any of the vairants yet. As well as the Jag i would like to get the 50 and 75 AA versions. Now, if only someone would do a E-5.

@ Bish,

I got my kit by a German importer, i.e. "New Connection Models" ... who unfortunately doesn't exist anymore ... several years ago.

May be when enough time, I will finish this kit. It will fit very well into my E-tank-series. E-10 up to E-100 and E-100 JgPz Type ...

best wishes

"Melchior"

Might want to run to Home Depot and get one of those home paint sprayers. LOL That is one big model when completed.

Again, check out eBay.  There are several in 1/35th scale at reasonable prices.

Melchior Thanks very much, i am in no great rush. I am just glad someone has poinrted me in the right direction to getting one of these. Rod has just posted the link for Chesapeake and i have found it on there. Did you get yours direct from them or from a European supplier. Either way i think i will get one when i get hiome, will be handy to have it on hand for when i can get my hands on another Maus.

Rod, thanks very much for that link, i found the item i was after, and alot of other good stuff there to.

Nevermind if you will have time to wait until next weekend I will find out and will give informations - so far as even posssible, ok ?

Best regards

Melchior I would love to do a Flak Maus but didn't know there was a conversion. Could you send me a site link, assuming that conversion is still around. Then i just have to get another maus

... unfortunately I still have one in my personally stock ... but it's planned for the conversion kit  "88 mm twin AA turret" made by

CMD-26 Chesapeake

So ebay might be a very good solution.

 

That sounds interesting.

You can almost guarantee that if you can't find it on eBay, it's not available.

Just cruised eBay and they have about six or eight available for sale.  Prices weren't too bad.

I got one in 2002 and it had been out of production for a while by then, but it's probably been in and out of production several times in between.

I think it is out of production at the moment. But as mention, you should be able to find one on E-bay with a bit of patience.

Even if the kit is out of production, old kits are being sold on a regular basis on e-bay and at shows

Dragon offered that kit, see no 6007 - however I cannot find it again in the catalogue 2011 ...

Mine's out of a 15 year old stash.  Sorry if I raised your hopes wrongly.
