Now heres interesting! 1914 Renault taxi in 1/35
« on: August 15, 2014, 03:27:18 PM »
This just showed on Hannants new releases.

Not sure about the maker Mach 2, theyre new to me but seem to have a wide and varied range of releases out already.
Anyone familiar with any of their releases?

If it's okay it must have possibilities as a backdrop for a Dio or conversion possibilities.

I added the link to Hannants and the Taxi, hope you don't mind Keith, thanks for the heads-up on this one.

Mach 2 has been around for a long time. My Humble Opinion is that their aircraft offer interesting subjects but the plastic and molding were below par. At least they were years ago (1990s).

Hello to all,
Mach2 is worst than FM.... :-\
Actually, I do a Bloch 174 of Mach2. In fact, I kept fuselage and wings. Rest is scratch. Luckyly, I have good plans.
Best regards.

Hi Keith

There is a review of this kit in Ami Cher magazine you can find here:

You will find it on page 22 of the last edition.

Hope this helps, Alan.

Hello to all;
You know what.... I bought Mach2 kit last sunday on a show in Normandy. It's not so bad but, of course, there's a lot of work. I'll post here soon. ;D
Best regards.
