Never seen the first one.

The second is a paper panzer, it's played in World of Tanks.

BlitzGrieg has built the JP2 and has the whole thing on video, but you could start with his in box review:

Its on the box bottom left corner in silver. A bit hard to read, but it is definitely 1/35 for both.
I suspect both are paper panzers.

Hey Pete

There's an example of the second one on the forum already. Darklen is building it.

Its been tried and tested, it works! So don't blame the system if you're no good. :doh:

Is there a connection between the modelling community and World of Tanks? I'm really happy that more tanks that only existed on paper came to life through the game and are now models. I just dont know why its happening. Are kit manufacturers just looking for new subjects or is the player base of 45 million world wide likely to include a percentage of modellers that makes it worth while?

I just purchased the Amusing 28cm Sturmmörser 38D. It looks clean and well detailed. The Hobby shop owner in HOng Kong felt it is an up and coming company, it's a new tool.

We will see

I find the company name interesting. Its obviously tailored for the English speaking market but I wonder if something was lost in translation. I cant see the demographic they are aiming for with 'Amusing'.

object 279 was built but never made it to full production. Impressive in the trails it could swim through a sea of mud and withstand a nuclear blast without getting flipped over onto it's back or worse.

The company is based in Japan and have a main distributor in German, it is a bit weird ?

Unfortunately I don't typically post build stuff on the forum, I find the posting of photos through a third party web site to be difficult. I have posted only while participating in a GB.

I do from time to time post crap on the FB page.

But what's funny is it could be 20 years before I get to this kit, ha.

Pete, I am getting rid of it. Due only to the fact that it is a paper tank and I don't build paper tanks.
The kit looks sweet though.

Saddest thing about not getting to build it for 20yrs is that the decals don't last forever.
