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.

Armortek at the Tank Museum
Some images from the SW Model Show this last weekend. Thanks to all who attended and worked to put on a good show, our first venture into demonstrating models to the public. Three slots were well supported and the audience seemed to appreciate what we did and especially to hear our "media star" at work. Thanks to Chris for all you did to make it all happen. A very special thanks to Peter Quambusch for coming over from Germany with two outstanding and unusual models. I stole a couple of the images from Dave Dibb, hope you don't mind Dave and thanks for helping us. Having Armorpax and our area together worked to everyone's advantage.

Re: Armortek at the Tank Museum
It was surprisingly enjoyable, but lots of hard work ............. 
Thanks to the 'usual suspects' for bringing a varied and interesting range of Armortek's Finest, which gave us our theme of 'Tank Development over 50 years'. Peter Quambusch gets a definite Mention in Despatches for coming all the way from Germany with his superb Elefant and FlakPanther. I stepped up to do the basic commentary, although everyone chipped in, and Stephen stole the show with his practical demonstration of Vietnam Fire Control tactics.
The (numerous) Public seemed very impressed, so that was a result. I believe (hope) that Armortek have got at least two sales (a KT, and either a Chieftain or a PZ III) out of it - the chaps were very interested in all aspects of Armortek ownership, and they had the essential ingredient of supportive wives
. The Bovington Events Team are pleased with us, which should guarantee us prime sites for future events (the running area for the other Clubs was a bit small, to say the least 
). But most of all, we had fun doing it ! (although my throat will need time to recover from shouting over the noise from Denny's KT 
).
The next one is Tiger Day, which I won't be at
. So I'm throwing down the gauntlet for someone else to do the commentary - a specific knowledge of all marks of Tiger would help, which I don't have. But, mainly, it needs as many of you as possible to bring your toys out for a play at Bovington. How can you resist ?
All the best,
Chris

Pete, I've signed his F295 but if he doesn't return on time, it'll be an F252. S

And for those who didn't serve, you need a WGAF295
