Meng Model 1:35 - German MBT Leopard 2A7 - Plastic model kit #TS-027
The Leopard 2 was developed in the 1970's for the West German Army and entered service in 1979 replacing the Leopard 1 as the main battle tank of the German Army.
The Leopard 2A7 is one of the latest versions of the series issued in 2014. A total of 14 vehicles were produced for Tank Battalion 203 and a few more were sent to military training centres and schools.
Based on its predecessor, the 2A6M, the 2A7 retains the armament of the earlier models - a 120mm smooth bore gun. The tank was upgraded with a new air conditioning system, power system and tactical systems (including the Saab Barracuda Mobile Camouflage System (MCS) and a SOTAS digital intercom system). Also, the vehicle was improved with additional armour which protects it against chemical anti-tank weapons and improvised explosive devices. Due to all the enhancements, the Leopard 2A7 is considered the most advanced German main battle tank suitable for low-intensity conflicts.

1:35 - Major Herbert George "Blondie" Hasler - Resin kit
Herbert George "Blondie" Hasler was a Lieutenant Colonel of the Royal Marines. In 1942, a 28-year-old Hasler planned and led Operation Frankton. The operation was a commando raid on Axis shipping in the French port of Bordeaux occupied by the Germans. The mission was to attach mines to the hulls of German cargo ships. Three of the five canoes were lost on the way to the port. The surviving crewmen including Hasler reached the port successfully, placed the mines and managed to drown four cargo ships. They then walked 100 miles to a French village where they met with members of the Resistance and started their journey back to England through Spain and Gibraltar. For this operation Hasler was awarded the Distinguished Service Order by King George VI.
One kayak was damaged while being deployed from the submarine, and it and its crew therefore could not take part in the mission. Only two of the 10 men who launched from the submarine survived the raid: Hasler, and his number two in the kayak, Bill Sparks. Of the other eight, six were executed by the Germans and two died from hypothermia.
This product is available in two scales, 1:35 and 1:24 and was painstakingly designed from scratch as a digital model.
The kit includes: 2 x miniatures (Blondie Hasler and Bill Sparks) in their folding Cockle Canoe named 'Catfish' made by Campaign Models (UK).

Ak Interactive FAQ Dioramas 1.3 Extension: Storytelling, Composition And Planning Guide Book 8150
This annex 1.3 complements the Dioramas FAQ series and explores every aspect of diorama design and planning. What makes a good story and how can you get it across with models? Where can you find a good idea and how can you develop that idea into a successful project? How can you compose a diorama so that it tells its story best and looks good at the same time? How can you use colours, figures, accessories, scenery and bases effectively in your composition? How do you turn a historical photograph into a three dimensional scene? How do you plan a box diorama? This seemingly theoretical subject is treated in the most practical way, making it accessible and useful for every modeller.
All topics are clearly explained with concrete examples, drawings, photographs and step-by-step guides.
528 illustrations contain over 300 AFV, aircraft, ship, car, SF and figure models and dioramas by Marijn Van Gils, one of the world’s best modellers.
