Thanks!

This takes me way back. Thank you for the nostalgic journey!

1976? I have an issue of Afv-g2 from 1971 with an ad for these. They were the only source of accessories and an MG 42 for use with the Monogram Pzkpfw IV.

Personally I preferred the Squadron combat line molded by Historex.

Hi Stephen; thanks for that info. I'll change the text to 1971. I appreciate and encourage facts like this so that I can be as accurate as possible.

Another blast from the past but this time, not mine as it was "Lego Scale" and my MG sets were 1/76 (the True Scale). I was amusingly confused at first as I didn't notice the scale and just naturally assumed as it was Armtec it was thereby 1/76. The ammo belt was what quickly caught my eye as my sets did not have one plus, the smaller sets came with optional AA mounts. Thanks for taking the time ti prepare these "old" gems!

Cheers,🍻

Oversized for 1/35, but they were great for those 1/32 Monogram beauties from the 1970s!

Thanks for the nostalgia flash-back. 1976 saw me building 1/48 Bandai armour and saving up for 1/35 Tamiya kits. Those were the days...

deathdork - lol!! I was gonna post "sad" ...but, thx for the chuckle.
