just wanted to do a quick reveiw on the plastic soldier companies German Panzer IV 1/72/20MM tank kit . very awesome kit comes with three tanks the company sells the same kit in 15mm scale . that comes with 5 tanks great for flames of war . its great that this company makes all there kits in three scales 15mm 20 mm and 28 mm . i personaly do all three scales because im a ww2 junky . well i bought the kit for $25.00 U.S. for my ever growing ww2 20mm collection . what a amazing kit . beautiful detail and tons of options to do all the panzer IV varients . side skirts no side skirts two diffent tank commanders , no tank commander some stowage short barrel . its awesome easy to put together and best of all ! easy to put together tracks . most 1/72 plastic kits have a ton of track part to glue together . this has a top and a bottom and then your done ! if your in to ww2 check out the plastic soldiers company line . especialy if your into flames of war . they do 15mm plastic infantry like 100 guys in a box for $ 25 bucks

They look great. I am about to branch off into 20mm WWII from 28 and 15 myself and was looking at these tanks and infantry. After seeing the prices I wish I had done this years ago.

That model looks brilliant! i don't enjoy putting together the FoW Panzer IVs (i'm doing an operation bagration force and i got two platoons of 4 panzers plus 2 commanders, and it's hell putting all those side skirts on) i'll have to look into these. thanks for the review!

i need panzer IVs for my flames of war germans and im going to pick up a box for that scale to . 20mm - 1/72 scale is great for ww2 . they make every thing ! i use the plastic valiant germans and americans . there about $20.00 bucks a box of 48 figs two boxes for each side and your good . i just haven't found a rule set yet im happy with . im going to probly pic up the forge world ww2 rules big p on the forums gave it a big thumbs up . ( in big p we trust !) they also make t-34 in all the scales to check out the scale in action in these pics..

some amazing pictures there. I do love seeing a good battle take palce, certainly when you see the viewpoint and the long lines of sight. Just amazing!

What rules had you used Matt? I have played FOW and DH, which I like, but I am always looking for something else. I was thinking of getting the KGN rules as well, but $79.00 is super steep for me right now.

i use FOW for 15mm and DH for my 28 mm . i was useing world at war battlefeild evolution from mongoose publishing , which is the old starship trooper rules done for ww2 . there ok but i want a little more teeth . DH is great for a platoon and a vechicle or two . but i want to do a lot of vehicles . and DH is a little complex for a company of tanks . im still searching ...

I had a long conversation with him at Legionary and the Shermans will be out soon as well!

Yer... Will is a sound lad. Looking forward to the 251s!

Just ordered two boxes of the 20mm Panzer IVs...

You ever tried Command Decision? It seems like it'd be good for large numbers of tanks. I've never played it myself, but I'd like to give it a try at some point.

just finished painting them ill post pics soon !
