plastic 113

with Empress/Gringo 40's plus some others releasing ranges for Vietnam this year (well starting now) wouldnt this be a good choice. U could make from the A1 to ACAV from the box, and as gamers anyone doing this period would want 3/4 :-)

I would love a plastic M113, but what scale are you after?

There are 1/56 scale moderns, but the main scale is 1/50 -:1/48 for 28mm moderns.

Of course, if you are Australian, you might want their stretch version.

A M-113 would be a good choice. I'd buy at least three

Ultra, well to be honest 1/56- 1/50 so little difference i wouldn't care, but as Rubicon mainly does 1/56  this would make the most sense. Also Empress are more in line with Perry's figures so look great with 1/56 stuff

The difference is noticeable, here is the Empress 1/50, Warlord 1/56 and a bagged Rubicon 1/56 jeep.

For clarity, here is the Empress and Warlord ones with a 25mm base.


Finally, here is the Modern British crew set in the Empress Jeep (I will point out that these are intended to crew the Airfix vehicles).

It does make me giggle that warlord’s Jeep was too small, so they made a new one and now it’s too big...

Warlord's jeep is the same size as Rubicon's (and Offensive's), it is just that it looks small compared to theirs (and others) 28mm figures.

I have not seen the new jeep, have they gone too far?

[elias.tibbs]

It’s a little bit big, proportions appear to be wrong.

[MassRager]

well with Rubicon now doing the Cents maybe the 113's will get a look in :-)

It's a good bet for the US armoured transport they have listed in their upcoming projects for 2020.

lets hope so :-)

[MassRager]

so anyone from Rubicon have any thoughts about this???

[elias.tibbs]

They rarely comment on wish lists. Unless it’s to say something like “Elias, we’ve already said we won’t be releasing an M4A375(W) kit. Please stop asking”.

Or SDKFZ 10 or M3 medium.... But wait....

But, yes, we get to ask for the weird and the wacky, debate the merits, ride our pet hobby horses etc.
