Title: Copper State Models launches new motorcycle kits
Post by: Dave W on January 30, 2023, 07:52:49 PM
Copper State Models has announced a new line of  3D printed W W1 motorcycle kits.

Edgar says they are developing British motorcycle kits in both 1/35 and 1/32 scales.

First up and Currently in development is  a 1/35 British motorcycle Triumph model H, it will be a direct 3d printed kit, with 3-5 parts, so should be easy to build.

Great news.

The only one I could find so far was the Peugeot motorcycle in 1/35 that came with Meng's French FT-17 light tank crew set.

Thanks for posting this info Dave.

The 3D spokes are amazing. What a great addition to the line. The Cix models are also impressive!

Thank you Andreas, I wasn't aware of that. Strangely, I DO have the CIX-M001 upgrade set, but I don't have Meng's French FT-17 light tank crew set (yet).

Tommy's War had a beautiful Clyno Vickers Motorcycle and machine gun combination, but sadly is out of stock.

1/32 Motorcycle line is a very good idea.
Maybe also at some point a "Wanderer" conceivable - that would certainly bring some of our figure specialists on thoughts - such for example:
