Nuclear Shrimp 15mm Vehicles Sample Preview.

Hello again all,
Here are 3 Nuclear Shrimp 15mm Vehicles Sample Preview which they kindly sent me to check out.

Beefy is the first thing that comes to mind. Excellent size for 15/18mm.

The IFV & APC are supplied in 2 hollow halves length wise ( sorry forgot to take pics ) & with a bit of work it will be relatively easy to saw the side & rear doors to show the interior. They have a potential for conversions also ( eg. extending them into 6 wheelers )

Very straight forward build ( after I took a look at the pics on their site, as the IFV's side bumpers? require some thought to build ( I would prefer leaving them off as it would be a pity to cover the wheels , I think the bumpers would make great mecha legs for conversions). I glued them as one thing so as to fit the with a magnet on the bottom.

The tank is a solid affair . I like the plasma cannon most . Supplied with loads of stuff thanks to the Kickstarter . Loads of Bags etc to model to your preference , 2 kinds of sponsons ( not sure if I would use them & I would suggest pinning to the tank sides as they may be prone to breaking off , being resin OR better still fit with magnets to have more options ). The commander & his hmg as a nice addition & there is also a cupola mounted rail gun.

Some part are small & fiddly or thin ( due to the scale ) & will require patience to fit ( again pinning will help )

I like the amount of detail ( eg, on the tracks & wheels)  even in hidden parts ( which for me is an overkill but some will like it for sure )

I took size comparison pics so you can see their size.

Flash is minimal. Can't wait to get what I ordered.
Still stuck on what scheme I will be painting them.

Thanks for your comments.
