1/150 Plastic Model Soyuz Rocket & Transport Train - By Good Smile



1/150 Plastic Model Soyuz Rocket & Transport Train - By Good Smile

Headed to the stars...
A model that represents the technology, courage and inquisitive minds behind the spacecraft.
The Soyuz rocket and spacecraft are currently the only manned vehicles capable of sending astronauts to the International Space Station (ISS), and the complete rocket together with its transportation train have now been converted into a plastic model kit!

Both the rocket and train have been intricately shrunk down to 1/150th scale, making the width of the wheels just 9mm in size. The model can not only be displayed as the complete rocket, but also laid horizontally on the train during transport (wheels do not move). The cast makes use of eight different colors that preserve the look of the rocket as well as each of the processes that it goes though.

The model is made from molded PS (polystyrene), and is made to ensure that fans will have great fun putting it together and painting it. All the processes from the rollout to the point that it reaches the ISS: transportation to the launch site, lift-off preparations, the separation of the multistage boosters and the deployment of the Soyuz spacecraft. Recreate the drama of a lift-off right in your very own collection with this complete rocket kit!

1/150 Scale plastic model kit. Approximately 320mm in length.

Though it will fit on 9mm / N-Gauge track, though the wheels do not move - this is a bit strange as it has standard model railway connectors rather than accurately modelled connectors!?

1/148 BP 42 and BP 44 Armored Trains Series - By Panzer vs Tanks


1/148  BP 42 and BP 44 Armored Trains Series  - By Panzer vs Tanks
(also available in 1/160)

After making an initial introduction on the KG144 BBS Panzer Vs Tanks is continuing to expand his range of BP42 and BP44 items to include other components of the train. Currently the items appear to be static models and as such would be at home with your Dragon Panzer Korps or Brengun.cz items. I image with some ingenuity and adaption you might be able to get these to run on 9mm N-Gauge track?

Items can be purchased via Shapeways: http://www.shapeways.com/shops/panzervstanks
