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.

My first Armortek build
It's my first Armortek tank build. I think it is going well thus far. Started upper deck and waiting for the motion pack.

Re: My first Armortek build
Looking good. Tracks are back to front to all the photos I've found. I keep putting mine on the wrong way when trial fitting also.

Re: My first Armortek build
Also when compared to photos of Fury, it looks like the bogies are on the wrong side of the hull.

Re: My first Armortek build
They're right. They're reverse from side to side. The bogies should be the same but switch direction depending on side of hull.Mark Heaps wrote: ↑Wed Sep 08, 2021 11:47 pmAlso when compared to photos of Fury, it looks like the bogies are on the wrong side of the hull.

Re: My first Armortek build
I am nearly finished. I am waiting on parts from Armorpax and ECA. I will still add more stowage as I get it. Soon, I will be looking for Michael Wittman's Tiger somewhere in the forest.
I am still tweaking my left track. It comes off on occasion when it makes a right turn. Tension?

Re: My first Armortek build
From looking at the photos you have posted, I would suggest the tension is a touch too much, especially on the RIGHT hand track so it does not have enough "give" to absorb the turn.Fernando Kuehnel wrote: ↑Thu Sep 30, 2021 5:55 pmI am still tweaking my left track.
