Team Yankee Plastics Preview

We'd like to take a closer look at the first plastic sprues which will soon be in your hands with the Team Yankee release.

Keen observers will notice that the sprue includes extended bustle racks and 120mm gun to 'future-proof' the model, allowing it to be used in the future as an M1A1.

Those who are familiar with the Flames Of War Vietnam helicopter models will recognise the rotor sprue for the Cobra, as it is the same as the component from our older resin and plastic helicopter models. AH-1 Cobra Attack Helicopter Rotor Sprue

The Hind is the largest plastic model we have produced. It is 17.5cm from nose to tail, and the main rotors are 17cm in diameter. As you can see, the sprue is divided into two halves for efficient packing. Great care was taken to reduce the number of parts as much as possible, compared to traditional plastic aircraft model kits.

Sadly we don't have photos of the finished T-72 sprue yet - it was not finished on time, hence the two-week delay in the Team Yankee release. But we should have photos to show you any day now.
