How about a nice real looking Ooh-Rah "Jeep"

Geoff Maybury · 2010-12-07T17:09:34+00:00

One vehicle and the "Marines" have been joined together for years and thats the "Jeep" MB, M38, M38A1, M151, M151A1. Then the Hum-V`s series , a real nice little gem of a machine would be great. Here is a machine that might give food for thought.

@Hudson Adams It's called the Roach and it's a printed set vehicle. Apparently not available without having the full set of vehicles which regrettably are not too our scale.

@Frank Reischmann Let me know if he doe`s a printed version how much, Rubicons plastic jeep of a WW2 MB is £18 witha trailer so that printed one should be around £12/£15 printed. Lovely thing but with out a printer not worth the thought ,detail is so amazing you would need aprofessioal printer. Or get bad lines.

Now if this, or one like it was put on offer by WGA around those prices in print I think we would all be singing from the same hymn page.

Hi... thanks for that... looks great...

I've got a friend with a 3d-printer and he had printed a lof of tanks and vehicles for my iron-core 5th Kaiserjaeger RKG... the models have small print-lines (home-, no professional printer but thats ok...)

Here 2 examples:

I think I buy that STL and let hin made a test-print... and then a star of 5 of them... 😁

OHHH.. I read your post twicw and NOW I GET IT... Rubicon sells a physical version of that truck... I will look at their shop... and buy 5 of them... my troopers needs more vehicles... 🤣

these models are great, a modular type vehicle, perfectly rational in a space faring civilization, less spare parts to store and less headaches for the grease monkeys! naturally some crewmen would be appreciated, expecially for the heavy mortras/repeaters on the back.

@Frank Reischmann No frank sorry Rubicon do a WW2 plastic kit with a trailer, a little bueaty costing £18, soon they will have 3 vietnam jeeps which are around the same size as that item, and they will not be much more in price. It was scale , and priceing that i was drawing attention to as it should not be in 1/56yh scale much more than "£20" printed.

@Frank ReischmannYour friends printer is not to bad as the lines go. I`ve seen far worse on 1/56th scale items, there`s a M38A1 Jeep , I`d like (I had a real one, so I`ve a soft spot) but it`s lines all over.

Hi, no problem...

It costs €16,51 EUR incl. VAT for germany... $15,46 USD... and 7 big files with all variants you shown... that would be a great model...

@Frank Reischmann So all I need to do if I buy the file is talk nice to a friend to make us one and pay him the money . How much do you estimate that one would cost.

@Geoff Maybury

Yes... thats all... 😁

This vehicle consists of many small parts, so you have to glue a lot together.
I will give him the STLs and ask for a price, since I often place a bulk order with him, I often don't know the individual prices.
