Cobi KonigsTiger 1/48
This is same set Cobi JagdTiger 1/48 model. Same size and Same hull building. but Color and Turret design are different. I wasn't bored to build even though almost same because I felt this is big difference about camouflage pattern.
Because of unstable connection between Gun mantlet and Turret, I had to put them by glue. but if you won't play, you don't have to do like me.
I chose 1/48 instead 1/28 or 1/35 because they have ugly face on front(or some angle). Appearance of 1/48 is pretty enough. I think 1 or 2 stud diagonal brick make it more like real Konigstiger on 1/48 scale.
Track and all wheels are rolling very smooth. Oh, you should not confuse suspension brick C and D. If you do, it doesn't roll well.
In light of recent screw ups
(I'll admit, not my best work. It def won't top my F-15 art)
Cobi vs. Aliexpress Shermans
I've been getting more and more into ww2 brick stuff and I'm currently considering between the cobra king 1:35 as well as a couple of aliexpress tanks. Could you guys check out the links and give feedback? (I'm aware that the aliexpress links are most likely just rebrickable mocs stolen)
Link 1- Sherman crab tank
Notes- This seems to be more "legit" as I've seen brands like brick block army dropship them which I imagine should be a good sign for the product maybe? Overall shop ratings for this product don't seem too shabby.
Notes- This product seems a LOT more suspect given the shop is below average for every single category on the shop. Also, there are a lot of fishy 5 star reviews all over their shop. On another product where there was also a sherman, I saw the rating tank due to what I perceive as actual reviews saying that the sherman sucks.
I think I will purchase the COBI sherman if it is on sale for memorial day, and perhaps the Crab sherman if it is deemed legit enough.
Finally building my LE Jagdpanzer IV!
First full build after getting back from college! I finished up the last few bags of my 12GO Krupp E-100 last night and am super happy to start this. After this it’s onto finishing up my Mould King Monarch ISD! Hope everyone’s summer is off to a good start!
Didnt knew those were so big. (Got myself a smaller one.)
Thinking of getting the 1/35 tiger 2 what are the best mods for it as it looks kinda awkward at some angles
Top Gun F-14A Tomcat for sale (damaged box, sealed)
message me offers, based in US
Finished building limited edition jagdtiger
The new Jagdtiger from Cobi is much better than the old version from 3 years ago. The new jagdtiger is more durable- the side skirts don't fall off like in the previous version, also the tracks are more durable and work perfectly. I highly recommend this model, for me excluding the price it's one of the best 1:28 tanks.
Italian Eurofighter F2000 Typhoon Short Review
It's a great set! Of course it looks pretty much the same as the other Eurofighters, but all of them look great anyway.
The building process is smooth and not very repetitive at all. The piece count and price are not too inflated by the small round pieces (Of which there are about 60) or the base plate, which is a big plus for me. I had some grievances with the AJS 37 Viggen model because of that (I think it had between 150-200 little round pieces!).
My biggest gripe with the set was that one of the bags had some grainy, sticky, black residue in it which had stained the pieces. I don't know what it was, and I'm interested in knowing if anyone else had that problem? I had to sit and clean the pieces one by one with a dishcloth which took a little while, but I'm just happy they weren't permanently stained. The set had no missing pieces, though!
All in all, a good looking set which was fun to build for an okay price, and it will look great on my shelf. I recommend it :)
Cobi3118 Sherman M4A2E8 (76)W Fury
I usually don’t build 1/35 scale, but got this Sherman for the simple fact that cobi did an excellent job of coping the crew from the movie fury, so I had to add the hand painting fury on the barrel, well my attempt at it anyway:
Sainte-Mère-Église Church: COBI (2299) and Sluban (M38-B1532) compared
Which version do you like better?
👉 More pictures from the new Sluban set on our blog:
Does anybody know if the C-130 kit is just fully discontinued or not?
I'm making a display of the Lockheed Martin aircraft that cobi had made and I realized a few days ago that they actually made one of these things, and I haven't been able to locate it online even through eBay, and I just wanted to know if I needed to cut my losses.
TANK MUSEUM FURY Sherman...
Almost done with The Tank Museum's exclusive Cobi FURY Sherman M4A2E8.
Just need a couple more parts for some more stowage, string (and need to color it) to rope in the crates and a couple more Brickmania jerrycans.
Will do a full review when done.
My second Cobi tank and loving it!
EDIT: Also waiting on a proper Wardaddy minifigure. It's a MinifigCo Wardaddy fig. from a Brick Veteran Sherman kit from a few years back.
Have yall's LE Jagdtigers shipped yet?
I mean, there weren't allot sold, so why do they take so long to ship everything?
And do they ship in the evening? (like after 5PM)
