does anyone know where I can purchase either a conversion kit or a model of a m728 cev? I’m looking for one that has a crane mounted on the turrent. Any help would be great!!! Thanks!
Azimut makes a conversion: 1/35 az35158 M728 CEV Conversion. I am afraid I don’t know much about it. It seems pricey. Greatmodels has it listed fo $81.
Academy still teases us with a pending future release for the last 3 or 4 years. There was an article in FSM a few years ago, March 1995 Issue, http://www.finescale.com/fsm/default.aspx?c=i&id=61 with detailed plans and instructions on how to convert an M60 into one. I built mine that way. It was pretty easy to do and on the cheap compared to the conversion set. I used the Verlinden M9 Blade Set at the time. Your best bet now would be to go with the Academy M60A1 RISE w/M9 Blade kit, or they sell the M9 Blade separetely for about $2.
Here is how mine turned out:
Dreaded Red X. Look under HeavyArty’s Showcase II to see it.
Eagle15,
Check with AEF Designs. I bought one from them years ago and they might still have the molds to make another for you.
