Anyone know of a F84Fin 6mm scale? Can be either 1/300 or 1/285. Thanks.

Looked on H&R and Scotia answer be there none - assume you checkded the Raiden selections. Strange it's a quite impotant beast cre6ianly flown by Lufftewaffe anoungst other Nato nations.

All of Scotia Grendel's Collectair range can be found in the MSD range.   MSD have continue to add more sculpts that don't appear in the SG range unfortunately.  I've fancied some of the MSD range but the cost of P&P and custom fees have put me off.

Very interesting. The strenght of the US $ don't help the UK gamer. Out of interest, do you know of other US 6mm merchants in WW2/post war figures,Vehicles & aircraft. My experience is limited to GHQ.

There's C-in-C Sunray. They are a US based company but looks like Randy, the owner is currently hanging up his boots and passing most of the business on to a Canadian based retailer, though keeping a few lines for himself:

Canadian website https://www.legionsivhire.ca/index.php?id_category=23&controller=category

I've ordered 6mm stuff not available in other ranges at the time (e.g. Netherlands Lynx recce vehicles and Austrian Sauer APC's) a couple of times from C-in-C. They are always good to deal with and their products are well made and compatable with both GHQ and H&R ranges. The vehicles are packed in 4 or 5's in a distinctive hard plastic box with foam to protect the models.

They do post war figures (not tried them), vehicles and a limited range of aircraft (assembly often required), so definitely worth a look if thats what you are after :)

GHQ & CinC produce excellent models which are 1/285 as opposed to 1/300.  I wouldn't mix in the same formation with 1/300.

Sunray

Noted. In the absence of other proxy, I would use 1/285 with Baccus 1/250.  No issue where it is figures,  I find Irregular Minatures with scale creep fit well with post modern wargame

Just to report that MSD order arrived today. Crisp well sculpted models - Thanks to everyone for advice & tips.
