ACE does 1/72 scale kits that are limited run quality. They are
original kits, but I'm not aware of them making larger scale kits.

New kits are better than their older ones. Their German kits are among
the new lines. Fairly decent and usually quite accurate, they still
have a bit of a limited run quality to them. This site has some
reviews on ACE kits.

Good bet it will not stand up to the AFV Club one albeit should be
much cheaper. But as noted is that the right scale? All the Ace kits
I've seen were 1/72.

you guys were right, it is 1/72. the 6 buck price should have warned me. if
it's ok, for the money, i may build one.
i love 1/35 and bigger, but reality, space and money are factors. i want to do
a small diorama packed tight. i intend to do a square meal dio. 24" on a side
and i want at elast 6 pieces of equipment with no more than 2 of one item.
ok, that's more than square meal size but you get the idea, right?
i reallt need to build something more coherent than one vehicle. maybe 2 guns,
a tank and a knocked out tank. the deader will be allied, and the troops
waffen ss.
anyone have a favorite unit? cookie, want a pick?
