Type IXC accessories

Done, that's a good suggestion. This thread is getting pretty unwieldy.

I finally have my engine room, electric motor room and after torpedo room kits in my hands. These are really awesome, and I'm excited to go through each box to get a fell of putting it all together.  I did get the extra diesel for the starboard side, I'll have to decide later if I want to block the view of the port side motor or not.  Anyway, CMK can through for met and I can now press on with my kit.  Its been so long, I'm not sure where I put it??

and



N72020 (1/72) U-Boot IX Weapon Conversion set - compising of a 2cm vierling and a 10.5cm deck gun, €30.00

Hi Cap,

thanks for the link. It's amazing how bustling CMK is on the subject of 1/72 scale submarines and u boats.

Maybe this resin kits could could save us from the fiddly Griffon pe AA-Gun set: This very painful sound when the tweezers pinging a small pe-part into orbit

My thoughts exactly!

Hi falo, Anakin et al


Yup, the carpet monster is regularly fed by Griffon.


Seriously with all the recent 1:72 boats being released by Revell over the last few years it is surprising that there has been nothing new from Griffon.

Just wondered if a  2cm vierling could be scrounged from a 1/72 AFV kit? Some kind of half-track or something like that?

Italeri makes a 1/72 German Guns Set (#7206) that includes: 3.7cm Pak 37,       7.5cm Pak 40,           and 2cm Flakvierling 38
I have the set but never used it, so I don't know the quality of the Flakvierling.     (Usually I stole the Flakvierling out of an S-100 kit.)

Hi all,


two new torpedo sets "G7a" and "G7e" (1/72 scale) in resin. Looks like a complete resin solution without pe parts. Don't know if they match the quality of the turned metal torpedoes from Robert Schatton.

Just post the links in the IXC section but certainly they can combined with other U boats and S-Boats too.

I hope they are not as bad in quality as the ones that come with the front torpedo section for the viic. Mine were completely warped. The schatton torpedos win this hands down.

I have been looking at it too, but the price is out of my range for the time being

Got mine on the way.       What can I say, I'm a sucker for good PE.
