Does anybody know where I can order some 1/35 german grenades and panzerfusts as well as storage boxes for them?
I saw some great ones somewhere and can’t remember the company that made them or the company that sells them. if we can get several diferent links that would be great.
Plusmodels make some nice resin 1/35 Panzerfausts, I have a couple and they look good to me. Thye also do some gremades of different types. if your looking for the “Potato masher” grenades I think the ones in the link below look amazing and have a set of them too
Hi there, RB Model from Poland have all what you’re searching for.
I’ve recently ordered the Panzerfaust 60 which consists of a brass tube PE details for the trigger and a aluminum warhead which can be inserted or not . As far as I know this is the only set with the possibility to show a used weapon !? They are two complete weapons with the option to build the trigger opened or closed. .
They also have the Panzerfaust 30 in two different versions , resin cases for those and the Stielhandgranate made of turned brass although they have a funny looking thing on top [*-)] (I’m sure I will remove this) .
The best grenades I ever got were from Orange Hobby Red Series : German Stielgranate 24 #G35-005-36 .
They are made from 3!!! brass pieces the handle , warhead and a tiny PE part to be inserted between those to show more detail on the bottom of the warhead along with decals !
Plusmodel have several resin grenade and mine sets too .
The only problem for you could be to order the stuff from Poland , it’s easy for me I’m living in Germany .
Jumo, those funny little bits on the top of the grenade, i belive they are some sort of impact fuse. I have seen photos of the real thing, its not something they have made up. But a pity they don’t do the standard grenade.
It is the Stielhandgranate 43 ! This is a warning do not use the RB Model grenades anywhere before 1943 , I’m sure this would ruin every diorama !
This is the description I found to the model 43 :
Since 1943, a new model stickgrenade was issued.
The model24 was re-designed to save on material.
It fitted the egg grenade fuze on top of the body, and so the stick needed no drilling for a pull cord.
The stick was screwed to the head by means of a pressed steel adapter, fitted to the stick.
Like the model 24, this grenade could be used with a fragmentation sleeve.
I just searched on Ebay for mine, used “1 35 plus model” and just worked my way through the results. cant find any at the minute but sure they will show up soon
Best place to get RB Model stuff is from JB Model out of Austria. They ship to the US with reasonable shipping costs even on small orders. www.jbmodel.eu
Actually the best place to get Egg grenades and the older stick grenades is the Dragon figure sets as you tend to add those extra grenades to the parts bin. And some of the later figure sets that have Panzerfausts also include the storage crates. But Pendinghaus which does decals has a new line of laser etched wood products under the SLS line which makes many different storage crates ranging from crates for the Kar98 to tank transmission crates.
