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.

UC No.25

Post by Phil Crowther »

Seasons greetings to all those lucky UC builders out there enjoying an early Christmas with a lot of unpacking and gazing, open mouthed at the latest wonder from Kian and co.
No.25 arrived after a short detour and I have to say it was worth the wait. Idler and bogie units are getting their “first fix” with a bit of fettling on the front springs and a wee coat of primer. It’ll all come apart again for final painting and motive power fitting.
I have only one gripe so far. Who thought it was a good idea to split up the fixings rather than have individual bags of 25mm M3 cap heads etc.? What a faf it is finding the right bolts in a bag of mixed ironwork. I can safely say, ‘I’m not a fan!’ Don’t fix what ain’t broke and bring back the old system, even though it’s too late for me now.😩
Stay safe everybody and have the best holiday you can.
Phil

Hey Phil
Hope you are keeping well and it's great to see you got your UC.
I purchased UC33 which arrived just before Christmas but so far I have only had a quick look at the bits.
This weekend I plan to check against the parts list and move it into a warmer spot.
I look forward to seeing your progress
Alistair
