Evening Gentlemen. I just bought a mahoosive box of parts and 3rd party kits, and whilst I know probably 90% of it, there still remains some of it I'm not familiar with. Any chance of lending someone a hand? I think some of them are Old Crow, but beyond that, I'm stumped.

Bottom picture looks like Tamiya for sure, hard to tell the scale, prolly 1:48 going by the large Guard symbol on the front of the Greyhound.

Greyhound: http://www.tamiya.com/english/products/32551greyhound/index.htm

Krupp: http://www.tamiya.com/english/products/list/35mm_img/35104m.jpg

A lot of the other vehicles are indeed Old Crow vehicles, except for the first one, dunno where it is from, but it's good looking!

edit.

The Krupp truck is a 1:35 scale model, prolly OOP by now.

Another edit.

Does the Greyhound have a die-cast chassis?

The Greyhound does. *ticks off list*

I've identified the truck as Old Crow's 'Rebel Light Utility Vehicle' and the Trojan APC's and Dragoon Half Track. That still leaves the two items in the 1st/2nd and 4th photos though. Anyone?

Didn't Ainsty Castings take on Old Crow's back catalogue thwn the fella passed on?

http://www.ainsty-castings.co.uk Any joy in there?

They took over the Hammer's Slammers range, but not the rest of the 28mm vehicle range IIRC.

I mostly know about the boats and docks, so wasn't sure if it was worth a look or not.

I think they may be ex Ground Zero Games ones. Stylistically that first photo is very similar to an old 6 wheeled APC I bought from them 20 years ago. Most (but not all) of the range are available from Daemonscape - http://daemonscape.co.uk/contents/en-uk/d5.html Certainly my APC isn't there so I suspect it's not the only vehicle missing from the old range.

The Old Crow range is (to my knowledge) parked for when Jez has more time (his other career going rather well, I believe). Yes, Ainsty just took on the Hammer's Slammers range.

Picture 4 is another Old Crow one (the design of the front gives that away).

I've got the hover (GEV) version of it.

The first photo may just be one of his modular vehicles that were never in the catalog (but you could get one by asking for one - at the shows - like Salute - that he went to).

The 1st and 5th photos do seem quite similar in design, stylistically. I'm taken aback that nobody seems to know what they are though, I thought Dakka knew everything collectively!

Maybe modify the thread title to better reflect what kind of models need identifying?

Thread titled edited, and relevant pictures reposted.

That first one is a beaut!

No idea on who makes it, possibly an old Scotia Grendel vehicle?

That one is from the Khryomech line.

Should be living in here somewhere, now....

If not, that's an older Armorcast, that they don't make anymore. I've seen those at The Hobbit, back in the day, back in NC., and also up in New York, in a couple of places in Syracuse, one was Altered States, the others, shop name escapes me right now....

I just went through the Khryomech line, but couldn't spot anything that approached it in appearance or sculpting style.

It seems the mystery tanks will remain unsolved! Which is a shame, because they're really quite nice. They'd make for some excellent 40K proxies.
