1:72 Modellcollect Fist Of War E-75 128mm Flak Zwilling

A closer look at the E-75 128mm Flakzwilling, produced 1:72 by Chinese manufacturer Modelcollect. Their "Fist Of War" range includes lots of walker styled tank modelkits and a lot of "What if..." kits. If you visit their homepage you will get an overview about their www2 range.

Let us take a look of the content of the box.

Beside the well made full colored construction manual, the box was filled with a lot of sprues.

The first two sprues belong to the main hull of the tank, or whatever you may call this. The cast is very nice without any flaws or visible ejectormarkings. A nice highlight are the tools which are casted as single parts.

The following sprue is included twice and has all parts to build the legs of the tanks, two per sprue. According the the construction manual, they can be build movable. As mentioned before, the cast is flawless.

The next sprues are for the main arnament of the tank, the 128mm Flakzwilling.

The sprue including the barrel comes twice, the remaining parts for the gun are included in a third sprue. These nice casted parts will sure result in an impressive double-barreled gun.

The final sprue included in this kit includes all parts for the close range weapon of the tank, a Kugelblitz turret at the bottom of the hull. The muzzles of the barrels are finely casted. Using this gun against infantry seems a little overkill to me, but maybe in Modelcollects 1947 some things went different then in our 1947.

Last but not least there is a set of decals included which contains some generic tanknumbers and Balkenkreuze, there are also two pairs of unit insignia decals including custom turret numbers. They will be stored in the scrapbook, maybe I will use them on another kit. This kit will be built without any decals or markings.

This is a nice modelkit, produced in high quality, with a strange weird world war two theme. I can recommend it, seems like it would make a lot of fun to build.

Even if you would not build the kit, you would get a nice 128mm Flakzwilling which could be used as stationary gun for a diorama, and the Kugelblitz turret would theoretically on a Panzer IV hull. And then the walker parts are still left for a kitbash.
