Hello everyone,

We now have a few new products to release. These are tower floors in photo-etch for the Germaniwerft VIIC and also the Mittelmeerturm.

The first is a tower floor in 72nd scale for the early Germaniawerft VIIC.



The pattern on these boats was quite different in that they had a linear pattern. The Revell kit has the non-linear pattern whereas our replacement (72-03) has the linear pattern for the Germaniawerft boats. These included really popular boats such as U 69, U 94, U 96 and U 201. Once you see the difference it becomes quite noticeable.

The other product is a Mittelmeerturm floor in photo-etch in 72nd (72-04) and also in 32nd scale (32-01). The Mittelmeerturm was an interesting tower arrangement used in the Mediterranean on boats with camouflage patterns. Note the modeller has to scratchbuild the rear half of the tower, which is a tricky but rewarding build.



More details can be found at -

The same page also has a downloadable article "AMP Type VIIC Tower Floors" written specifically for these tower floors.

Note that the Germaniawerft tower floor (72-03) can be bought using the cart button. However, due to being limited edition, for the Mittelmeerturm products you would need to contact us directly at info@amp-modelparts.biz to order.

Cheers,
