NEW ICM 1/35 Wehrmacht Armour vehicles (DS3525) kit review

[@barrywalker8790]

Wow what a lot for your money 😳 I am impressed especially with the half-track and even at 75 pounds 25 a kit 🤔 that's a winner great review Peter also glad to hear you are feeling better mate 👍

[@Peter-Oxley-Modelling-Lab]

@@barrywalker8790 Thanks Barry. I see the kit as cheap as under £65 at some retailers!👍🏻

That little tank reminds me of a matchbox armoured car I had as a kid. It was metallic green with a black turrert that went from side to side as you pushed it along.

[@Peter-Oxley-Modelling-Lab]

@@IM-lr6vz I had one too...about 1975!

​@@Peter-Oxley-Modelling-Lab remember it too 😊

Hi Peter.. impressive set this.. considering the scale size and overall price. Only real negative is the lack of personnel, as I think with these 3 vehicles there should be crew included. I suppose their are kits available that can work together. Appreciate your description and detailed run through. Cheers

[@Stu.Henney]

Just a question Pete.. in your experience do you think these 3 German vehicles would be painted up in similar camo schemes..? Or would they vary?? Or would it depend if they all came from the same unit, where they were camo schemed together? Just thinking if buying the regular 3 colour paint camo scheme (dunkelgelb, olivgrün,rotbraun) would do the job to create a realistic look for a grouping? ( I've found personally the cheapest German 3 colour camo paint set, is from AK, at around £14, and is good value . Cheers big fella ha

[@cyberleaderandy1]

​@@Stu.Henney I guess if same unit then all the same. If your doing a vehicle passing two others then it might be different. They do make crew figures too.

[@Peter-Oxley-Modelling-Lab]

@@Stu.Henney Yes, I agree with Andy. 👍🏻

Peter . The toilet on the mud guard is the exhaust. If ever you see a Hanomag at " truck's and Tracks ...... Dont even think about it . 😂

[@Peter-Oxley-Modelling-Lab]

@@MartinSparks-ef9gr That reminds me of the time I got in trouble on a ship for misunderstanding what the 'Poop-Deck' was! 🫣 😆

[@MartinSparks-ef9gr]

@@Peter-Oxley-Modelling-Lab Ah , those words you never want to hear . " Your cabin is directly adjacent to the rear poop deck with an amazing view"

[@cyberleaderandy1]

Been debating and bought the 'Gruber wagon' 😂 £23 including postage so pretty good. See they do a crew of 4 for theae as well. Also a couple of variants with a bigger gun and a command aerial.

[@derekbaker3279]

Thank you for the box opening video! Much appreciated! FWIW, I already have the Sd.Kfz 251/1 Ausf. A and Panzerspahwagen P.204, so I think I will pass. (Both are very good kits IMHO.) However, *IF* the boxing included their new Sd.Kfz 251/1 Ausf. B, and their new command version of the Panzerspahwagen P.204 (which is seen in a lot Barbarrossa photos/films recorded by individual German servicement and the ever-present German propaganda crews), I'd be all over it in a flash!

[@Peter-Oxley-Modelling-Lab]

Thanks! 😊

Re the "leetle tank"it's typically French,if you've ever had to work on a Renault,if the solution is a nut then the answer is three clips,five washers and two Allen bolts!

[@FaronCollins-wallop]

I like the look of this kit. Might treat myself 😊. I see Airfix have tooled the Jaguar for you Peter.

[@Peter-Oxley-Modelling-Lab]

@@FaronCollins-wallop YES! AND the STALWART too! It's PARTY TIME!!! 😄🎉🥳

[@FaronCollins-wallop]

@Peter-Oxley-Modelling-Lab the Stalwart did look nice. But what a boon for you.

[@BoxxArt]

​Can I ask what noise did you let out on hearing the jag release? 😅 Congratulations! @@Peter-Oxley-Modelling-Lab

[@martinmountford3281]

The next iteration of this will be with figures probably called France 1940 ,cos that's how ICM roll

[@MichaelCampin]

Do they also supply pe for the grills etc Peter.

[@anjkovo2138]

👍👍

[@xjr13john]

A diorama set? I think not but looks a great set especially with the interior detail and as already said, where is the crew?? hopefully a crew set will follow??

[@steve1315]

👀looks most pleasant 👍.

[@Bobby-r2z]

🙂👍

[@chriswhite2997]

Hi, Peter: The German name for the little tank is pronounced Panzer "Shpay" Wagen.

[@markgordon2260]

And here is me thinking it was the Gruber Wagen... Sadly mistaken.

[@manoskagiaftakis8084]

Don't be so good with ICM they are not so perfect.. We love ICM but the rubber tires they produced in most of their kits are rubbish !! The pattern and the quality of ICMs tires is very low.

[@Peter-Oxley-Modelling-Lab]

@@manoskagiaftakis8084 I did explain these were not new tool kits from ICM; Their latest models avoid rubber and are fantastic...see my next video (AA truck) and you will see what I mean.👍🏻

[@derekbaker3279]

@@Peter-Oxley-Modelling-Lab I'm looking forward to the vid on the ICM AA truck! Now, if only i could convince ICM or some other companies to offer the same trucks & other 'soft skin vehicles' in 1:16th scale (which I have really enjoyed building!)

[@darwinstoothpick4171]

Peter, you got your wish! Airfix is bringing out a Jaguar in 1/48 scale! What about my wish?
