Has anyone heard anything more about MGM? Since T&T started having their time of troubles, I find nowere else to go for news of fortcoming MGM kits. Their last year was most impressive. What are their plans now? Anyone heard anything? Their productions has been most pleasingly full of surprises this far! For instance, who could have ever dreamed of seeing a kit of the Armoured Marienwagen! After that one, anything is possible!
And shouldn't we lobby KORA to make them finally do that A7VU. Or, better still, a kit of that Austrian Burstyn Tank, another design that never materialised!
That's "Gohres" by the way, not "Gores", and take note that Michael doesn't speak English very well.
I know of at least one spectacular WWI project being researched to see if production is possible (as it is quite big). It would blow your mind out if you knew what it was, but I'm not sure I'm at liberty to reveal it ... yet!
Michael is also working on some Austro-Hungarian dog-carts at the moment.
That was my thought as well: The Paris Gun!!!! That would be, well, just wonderful!
Please let Herr Gohres know, that me - and I honestly believe Roger Todd - that we will assist him in every way possible, in getting info. And please point him to the big article on this site! (There he can also see a scratch-built 1/35 Paris Gun, that I photograped in the Bundeswehr Museum i Koblenz: it can be done!)
Michael Gohres is a brave man, and I think he will do it!
I must say that I'm rather disenchanted with MGM kits. I have his Skoda 30,5cm mortar and the kit is full of silly mistakes - many of them aren't effect of some technological problems, but just inaccuracies - and that gun is really pretty well known and richly photographed. Some of my comments to that kit can be seen on the Landships website. Also the casting quality is uneven - chain is a gem, and the barrell sucks... Strange. He could do it MUCH better. G.
