Modelling Projects / A blast from the past
« Last post by zak on Today at 01:03:39 PM »Whilst at the Northern Model show I bought the Airifx re-release of the Guards in 1:76 scale.
I was obviously feeling nostalgic and remember having these as a youngster, they were marching on my model railway.
I was disappointed on opening the boxes, they were worse than I remembered, the same moulds and they are in bright red plastic.
As I had been doing some 1/72 stuff and figures I did think that I could produce a diorama with these on.
Here ares some pictures.
One figure straight from the box.
The moulding is pretty poor and the detail, what detail.
Well I will see what I can make of them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
They were 5.95 per box, so I suppose I shouldn't complain.
