MV125 15 cm TbtsK C/36 ‘WWII German Destroyer Gun’ in 1/72 - video preview

 This rather intricate abbreviation in fact holds the name of a 15cm German WW2 naval gun in a single turret version. This gun was meant to become the primary armament of german destroyers and also the secondary armament of the planned larger and heavier ships of the Kriegsmarine. Some of the guns found their way, after necessary modifications, even to the Atlantic wall. Our video preview today shows the resin model of the ship-fitted version of the gun.

   It is my pleasure to use this opportunity now to say our huge thank you to all our customers for their cooperation and support in 2021. The year that has just passed was a very successful year for our company and we hope for no less in the new year, too. Why so? Well, do believe me that all the models we have in the pipeline for 2022 are no less attractive than those we released past year. You can start looking for the whole new family of the 1/72 MirageIII/5 kits, yet one more version of the massive (and massively successful, too) 1/72 Sunderland kit, believe me or not, the first releases of the two-stage Mosquitos are expected as well. The SH team are also working on a new Hudson tooling, and mentioning the quarter scale, we will have for you the gun turret- and bomb bay-equipped version of the Siebel Si 204E/Aero C-3B and also a whole new Baltimore in several versions, plus the Piper L-4, SIAI-Marchetti SF-260 and a somewhat improved Heinkel He 177.  The crème de la crème will

Dear customers,    In the June edition of Special Hobby newsletter we are bringing you one quarterscale model plus three in 1/72 scale. The former one is the re-release of the AF-3S Guardian, the three latter ones then the very much sought after two-place Mirage F.1B, the quite unorhodox-looking Swedish SAAB J-21 fighter and a brand new release of the night Stuka variety, the Ju 87 D-5N. In the previous newsletter, we mentioned that the 1/48 L-4 Grasshopper would be released in June. We are very sorry but you will have to be patient a tiny bit more, this model has been re-scheduled to the month of July. We mentioned a few minor issues needed some fixing, and they still do.     Among the many resin cast or 3D-printed sets or models we release each month, you can find now excellent accessory for the already mentioned Stuka, the pilot’s seat and MG81 rear twin machine gun are made by direct 3D print. Printed weapons can be also found in the excellent set portraying a contemporary Unkraini

   We are here now to kick off this autumn season really big style – with the Mirage IIIC kit. Yes the Mirage has been announced for a rather long time and voila here it is, finally. And I am really very much tempted to say that the kit is trully superb. To  get released along with the kit, we have also prepared a set of painting  masks and sometimes next month, you can also expect a few more resin sets designed for the exquisite little gem named the Mirage. These will cover the undercarriage wheels and the Atar 9B jet engine nozzle. There is also a second model release scheduled for this month, the Aero C-3B, this time with the pre-cut masks set available, too. Several sets for the Aero are already on the offer. And the third new kit I need to mention now is the Aero Ab-11 called the Blue Bird, an aeroplane very much connected with the Czechoslovak aviation history.     In no way less interesting are all the accessories and detail sets we have for you this month. First, however, let m
