2025 ARMORTEK KIT SURVEY

Over the last few years we have brought out a whole series of kits as a direct result of your feedback - kits like the Pershing, JagdPanther, Hetzer, Leopard 2A4, and more recently the Sd Kfz 7, 88mm Flak 36 and the upcoming Challenger 2.

So, in keeping with what has become and annual tradition, here is your opportunity to once again influence our future production plans.

We have added in some "guide pricing" next to the names of the models. This is a rough estimate of the price at the current rates.

Thanks in advance for your input and we look forward to the results.

Replacing some parts that were removed by previous owners and went missing. The side skirts were lost. Trying zimmerit using tile grout instead of milliput - has potential. Using a couple side plates for practice. Replacing the faux Antenna.

Had some sunshine so took her out for a drive. Always fun to churn some moss...

Thanks Damon and Vince for comments. 8)

Few more details. I wanted an easier location for on-off switch and Charging port. So will try this box for the engine bay. Made the removable fake air filters from various photos.
