Water water everywhere and no bottles

i know verlinden makes mre packages, but not sure about the contents

Welcome to the forums tanker42!

Jessiahkinnamon just recently did a Humvee in 1/35 that had a water bottle in it, maybe he can point you to where he got it.

Accurate Armour makes a set of aftermarket water bottles. Check out modelmecca.com or missionmodels.com

For water bottles, there is the Accurate Armour set mentioned above. Here are the Accurate Armour ones, they come n a set of 28, in either blue, green, or clear with decal labels for around $14.00:


Also, the Academy HMMVW kits, most modern Academy kits for that matter come with a clear sprue of water and beer bottles.

For MRE inner bags, no joy. You will have to make your own. Here is a thread about them over at Missing-Lynx. http://www.network54.com/Forum/thread?forumid=47211&messageid=1092750932

why buy aftermarket when you can make your own? simply chuck a piece of clear sprue into a dremel tool. Using a #11 exacto knife blade and the dremel turning full speed, turn your own bottles. Stretch a little sprue and use it for the caps. It works awesome and you dont have to wait for the mail man!!!!

The Tamiya Bradley and M113 also have water bottles. I think you can also get the sprues seperately from Tamiya under the name Modern US Equipment

if you look at my post, Iraq war armor diorama, and look at the interior shot of the bradley, you will see a home made water bottle on the floor.

Hey Tanker42,

For the inside of the MRE boxes, (the individual meals) you coud use black electrician's tape and make the small "envelopes" that contained the food.

I'm pretty sure the Challenger has them too. For sheer variety, though, no one tops Accurate Armour!
