Re: Unboxing the new howitzers – German 21 cm & British 9.2 inch

Sorry! Silly me. I tried several links offered by the hoster. That simple one did work at least. BUT I missed the bb-code function (which is hidden in plain sight...). Thanks for the hint and correction!

I haven't got these yet but judging by your pics and comparing the components with scales drawings they look more or less correct

Got these big guns today. Both are looking very nice at a first glance. Just wondering whether they are 1/72 or slightly smaller? Hard to say just by the sprues. Assembling will tell.

The figures of both sets are great.

First impression: Well done, Strelets! These made my day.

Is there any timeline for them appearing in the UK?

Actually, it looks like they've sold out of the British one!

Guess which one I was especially after! Emodels HAD the Masterbox Female MkII left it too late and it appears to be sold out. Not a good start to the week!

I strongly suspect they'll be showing up at Hannants soon, so I wouldn't worry. For me, Hannants has the best price.

I was going to wait until Jadar got them, but it looks like for once Hannants beats them on price.

But I would respectfully suggest you use Jadar for the Master Box MkII Female and the First to Fight Renault Male. Their prices cannot be beat, even with the shipping costs. I've split my order between the two shops.
