New 1:35 Landesa tractor

Our friends of ResinLab have surprised us with a previously unexpected novelty: the 1/35^th scale version of the SCW artillery tractor Landesa, one sample of which is already in our hands. It consists of a resin cast hull complemented by two also resin track sets as well as a good number of 3D printed accessories.

Also, just to recall we are going to briefly reopen Minairons website this midnight (23:00h London time) for a final clearance sale. Don't miss it!

No news on Minairons' eventual survival, sadly. Some have shown interest in acquiring this or that range, but nothing can be set for granted yet.

1:35 Mercier tank

Our partner company ResinLab (which is the brand our usual resin caster is behind) has recently released a new 1:35^th scale Spanish Civil War AFV - the rare, ill-known Mercier tank, also sometimes known as Aragon tank - and we at Minairons are going to stock it on a permanent basis,

Model itself is quite easy to build, because it consists of just seven pieces - main hull, both tracks, hatchets and MGs. The larger parts are resin cast while the smaller ones are 3D printed.

A 1:72^nd version of it is also coming soon.

Decorative plates anyone?

I'm somewhat uncertain whether this initiative will be well received, but we at Minairons and ResinLab have thought that maybe some among you might be interested by products like SCW times factory plates. As an example, this one below that we've just released this week.

This particular product is a resin cast plate in one single piece, and measures some 11 cm long, 2.8 cm wide and 0.6 cm thick. It can be found at our website's merchandising page.

New Kugelpanzer

I'm proud to present you a new range of weird, futuristic and/or unusual WWII vehicle model kits, born as a collaboration project between Minairons miniatures and ResinLab models. By this agreement, our brands are going to develop jointly that new range - keeping ResinLab for itself the original 1/35^th scale version, while Minairons is to commercialize as own its 1/72^nd version.

As a first result of such collaboration (ideally involving soon a third brand and a couple of scales else), I'm happy to show you our first joint release: the quite mysterious Kugelpanzer, a small spheric German AFV - only one sample of which is known, captured by the Red Army in Manchuria and currently kept at Kubinka Museum. Here below you have one such 1/72 Kugelpanzers masterly assembled and painted by HeresyBrush:

Both ResinLab's 1/35 and Minairons' 1/72 versions can be found at Minairons' website.
