Re: News that we know nothing about

Yes, I think on ebay, but it may have been somewhere else on the net, thought it was a put together playset by someone , in fact it may have been thrown up by me following a link to a 1/32 D-day playset on youtube (using french infantry rather than Brits) and lost interest very quickly. So in truth did not pay a lot of attention to either.

Dear Alan,

Alledgedly, these images were taken and sent to us from Facebook Miniatures Scale 1/72 site.
Best regards,

That will be it then, the base look familiar, possibly from a 70`s Japanese maker set, Nitto ?

Re: News that we know nothing about

I run a number of Facebook hobby groups and many people make up their own playsets, even hire someone to print box art on cardboard boxes for them. Usually they use existing products from various companies. They don't sell them, they just do it as part of their hobby.

1/32nd scale playsets were very common in the 1950s and 1960s, even into the 1970s. And it makes an interesting project to gather existing models and make your own.

I've seen "bundles" appear on ebay over the years. By itself, the diorama base may not sell well for the price-point with it's postage cost but throw in an arty set and a nice colour backdrop and it makes it more appealing without increasing the postage cost much (if any). If you paint everything and add basing materials to the diorama you have a nice all-in-one set for a display
