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.

Tanks, Tigers and Rolls Royces - Video

Post by Stephen White »

I've just uploaded a new video on my YouTube channel, Tank Builders. It shows the Armortek Elefant, Rolls Royce Armoured Car and Simon Manning's Sturmtiger with their full size equivalents at the Tank Museum. It was filmed during the recent SW Model Show. The last scenes show what the Tiger Collection might look like if a full size Sturmtiger were available to complete it. The wonders of Photoshop.

The Tiger Collection might look like this if the Museum had a full size Sturmtiger. Actually, Simon's model is more accurate than the real thing.

It's a pity we didn't have time for video of the Sturmtiger. I can add if anyone has some. Thanks Simon Manning for providing her and to Chris Fry for the Rolls and Elefant.

Best regards

Stephen
