QUOTE: Originally posted by dyango i'm just wondering, is there any kit around, of 1/35th French MBT Leclerc or AMX, and the Italian Ariete, coz i'm more into collecting modern MBT's of the world. I remember bumping around a Heller Leclerc (1996), but i suppose the kit was a very hard-to-find one. I prepare injection-piece kit though, rather than resin kit (too pricy!!)

I prepare injection-piece kit though, rather than resin kit (too pricy!!) welcome dyango! i'm a braille scaler i build in 1/72s, but i do have a collection of 1/35s mostly modern MBTs and syempre, they're equivalent in 72. there are mini models and trumpeters 1/35 leclerc MBT in most STC stores and Lils mkt., a friend of mine had mail ordered the AMX 30 thru JMNs so far, i'm not familiar of any 1/35 ariete MBT kit available in the country. nahahanap din ako nun in braille. BTW, the trumpeter leclerc requires a lot of rebuilding, and lots of fit problems, i bought the kit 3 years ago, my 1/72 revell ag kit fared better. hope this helps. mang ernie

Whoah! so many replies, these are BAC people right? arlmags jun in reading this forum you guys promote STC. there's no need for such red tape, if the owner of STC is reading this forum. therfore, he is already informed. have pity on the sale lady and spare rod further inconvenience for one bottle of cement. my 10 cents. arlmags

P180-190? his fare alone is almost enough to buy new bottle and spare the him the trouble of filling a complaint. the IPMS-Manila guys, do literally promote STC should be the first to inform the owner of incidents like this, and assist rod, this is the best moment to help a fellow modeller in need and not pass him around...talk about a bottle of cement. rod you should bought your cement somewhere near like JMNs and Lils mkt. isang bus ride lang sayo yun diba? di ka siguro nagkaproblema. i also use extra thin ang mahal, kaya i use them in tandem with regular cement. a friend suggested chloroforme its cheaper pero sumasakit ang ulo ko, i don't want to wake somewhere naked. hehehehe cheer up! beth

QUOTE: Originally posted by dyango mang ernie thanks a lot for the reply, now at least i can look forward into having a 1/35th scale Leclerc added to my collection. I bought an Dragon M1A1 1/72nd but still hesitant to build, i'm more into building choppers and fixed wing aircrafts with the scale. Again, salamat po!! jun (dyango)
