Bronco have a few
really different and a few adapted kits that we have already seen most of in
various guises for September – We really didn’t expect just the wings and tail
of a glider in 35th to come on sail anytime soon! See what’s new
(and new(ish) from Bronco this month…
Bronco’s new kits for September.
T851E1 track link (Rubber)
for M24 Light tank Chaffee (Workable)
AB3572
1/35th
scale
To suit the many Chaffee kits released from Bronco these are
rubber road workable tracks for easy assembly and maybe a little driving them
around by your kids? (Hope not)
T72 Steel track link
for M24 Light tank Chaffee (Workable)
AB3573
1/35th scale
This time the metal type of track for easy assembly-
workable tracks that will suit your cross country Chaffee.
Horsa Glider Wings
& rear Fuselage
(Tail Unit) Set
(Tail Unit) Set
#/AB3574
1/35th
scale
This is a brilliant idea! Just supplying the tail and wing
sections fo this kit means that people wanting to depict a crashed glider part
on say – something like a D-Day or Market Garden landing can show just the
tail, or the tail and wings section all broken off. The jury is out on whether
you can convincingly display these broken inside but it’s a start in the right
direction. Nice thinking….
Panzerkampfwagen MK IV,
744(E) (A13) & UE Trailer
#CB35030SP
1/35th scale
This converted Cruiser tank – probably taken from the British
or the Russians which was actually a MKIII Cruiser that was converted to a MKIV
with heavy cruiser tank with 30mm of armour plating added to the nose, glacis,
and front superstructure and more modification to the turret sides. The Germans
renamed them Pz.Kpfw. Mk.IV 744(e), and pressed them into service in the next
campaigns, from the Balkans to Russia. This version comes with the EU trailer
included.
German Horch Fu.Kw (K
fz.15) radio car
CB35182
1/35th
scale
Another variant of the popular Horch sees this car in the
radio-car version with internal radio and large aerial mast. Suitable for a
commander’s car or in a bunch of similar support vehicles this popular kit is
seeing all types of variants from the one vehicle kit.
sWS 60cm Infrared
searchlight Carrier "UHU"
CB35212
1/35th
scale
Bronco’s re-kitting of the Nebelwerfer kit and the Great
Wall adaption of the “UHU” – the Schwere Wehrmachtschlepper (sWS) was half-track
designed by Büssing-NAG and powered by a 6 cylinder, water-cooled Maybach HL42
TRKMS gasoline engine generating 100 horsepower (75 kW). Top speed of 27k’s per
hour on good roads with a load capacity of 4,000 kilograms (8,800 lb). This
version featured an armoured cab and mounted a large infra-red searchlight for
night fighting. These were becoming reality towards the end of the war and this
kit will surely be popular with modellers.
Bv P178 Tank Hunter w/”fliegerfaust”
B Rocket system
#GB7004
1/72nd
scale
This paper plane continues in the many variants of this very
nice little kit from bronco – we have already had the dive bobber – the torpedo
plane and now the rocket firing variant that never saw action to please all of
the luft 46 fans out there.
All of these kits
will be available from Bronco’s
suppliers in September.
