1/35 Railroad Steam Separator

MSRP $12.95 USD

This set provides a WW2 era European railroad steam separator that will add a nice detailed touch to your trackside vignette!


1/35 Railroad Crossing Guard Arm

CD6068

MSRP $15.95 USD

This crossing arm is also usable as a checkpoint barrier as well. Add a guard shack and you've got another possibility here. This is still a good backdrop element for your trackside vignette.


1/35 Railroad Mainline Signal Tower

CD6071

MSRP $12.95 USD

Here is another nice trackside element for your diorama - a WW2 era signal tower. This set signaling and structural details that will look great along side of your mainline subject.


1/35 Hull Defilade Position Tank Base

CD7015

MSRP $19.95 USD

This diorama base is virtually perfect out of the box! While scaled for the Tamiya 1/35 T-55A kit, it also worked for my DML Iraqi T-72 (depicted here prior to martyrdom). With a little work, you can depict the hull-down position for just about anywhere in the world! This one is elegant in its simplicity!


You can purchase these and any of the Custom Dioramics line from your local hobby retailer or directly from VLS' website at www.modelmecca.com. They have some of the fastest mail order delivery in this industry - give them a try!

My sincere thanks to VLS for these review samples!
