1/144 Working Vehicles of the JSDF Series 003 - Tomytec

 

1/144 Working Vehicles of the JSDF Series 003 - Tomytec

A Japanese Twitter user has shared these images of  'Military' Vehicle releases, scheduled for 13/10/2022/

I think these must follow on from their assumed sucess of repackaging the Diotown range as "battlefield" buildings? 

So, here we see several military items collected from the 1/150 Diotown and Truck collection series (now in military colours) and repacked for release.

So the big question is the UH-2 helicopter which I suspect to be a new cheap mold?

1/144 Combat Diorama Buildings - Tomytec

Another set of re-boxed/rebranded Tomytec Railway Diotown Collection buildings re-issued with a "combat paint job"

Previous "combat diorama collection": https://kampfgruppe144.blogspot.com/2020/05/1150-dcm04-dio-collection-combat.html

https://www.1999.co.jp/eng/search?typ1_c=109&cat=&target=Series&searchkey=Dio+Colle.Combat

The original 1/150 Diotown collections is an ongoing project by Tomytec introducing new structures, and periodically reissuing older kits in new paint schemes, so even the items listed here may have been previously issued in various schemes.
https://www.1999.co.jp/eng/search?typ1_c=109&cat=&target=Series&searchkey=Dio+Colle.Combat

I think you may be better off finding one of the older issues on sale or ebay and weathering them yourself - however, if you want a quick solution.

1/144 Bf-109 Gimix Series - Tomytec (update)

(Update: new larger photos)

Following on from the shows earlier in the year, websites in Japane are begining to show early pre-order listings for the Tomytec Gimix Series for the Bf-109.

Recent Gimix issues have show that these will most likely come with motor options and display base. These should also be comaptible with the optional desktop flyer/spinner accessory.

The Fw-190 Gimix series also indicate that Tomytec hve raised that standard of the old FAOW:WOTL series even further by adding detials such as aerial wires, metal parts and nice paint work.

Bf109 E-3 2nd Air Wing Instructor
Bf-109 E-4/B 54th Combat Wing
Bf-109 E-7/Trop 27th Combat Wing
(finally, a desert bf-109 with interesting paint!)
Bf-109 E-4 1st Night Fighter Wing
Bf-109 E-3 Romanian Air Force

The price is higher than the old series (but the yen is 50% more exspensive than a last year even!, but cheaper than the FW-190 series.

Availble: March 2011
Price: 1,400 (discount rate 1,120)

1/150 Industrial Complex by Tomytec

1/150 Industrial Complex part of the 'Visual Scene Series' by Tomytec

Its has been a while since I posted any train/railroad accessories.
However, when I saw this I thought it would be of interest for potential diorama uses?
It could be used as part of a industrial, or military complex?

The set will be available as a "mega set", or a individual components for you to compose as required. These item are prepainted, but may require minor assembley

Industrial Complex (14800Yen)
or as components:
A) Distillation Tower (1600Yen)
B) Cooling Tower (1600 Yen)
C) Gas Holder (2000 Yen)
D) Shipping Facility (1600 Yen)
E) Pipes Set ( 700 Yen)
F) Guard Hut (1600 Yen)

These would look good along side the Green Max factory kits (require painting and assembly) and some of the Tomytec Building Site (prepainted, Set and Components) such as those Portakabin Offices?

and if you prefer your site to be under construction there is Wood and Steel

1/144 Fw-190 A-8 "GiMix Series" by Tomytec (TakaraTomy)

Tomytec(TakaraTomy) are to reissue a series of FW-190 A-8 in using GiMix series branding.
Typically the Gimix ranges have additional funtions such as motors or lights

Interestingly, these FW-190s come on small displaystands as per the Doyusha releases.
needless to all this extra stuff would appear to bump up the price 2-3 times!?
Hopefully these items will retain the excellent quality of the FAOW:WOTL series from Takara.
