Alanger kits

Spoke too soon. The web site I was using to see the range dropped me into eastern express instead - Sorry about that.

Alanger seem to make a range of tanks and 1/48 scale aircraft. Does anyone have any experience of them. Should we be stocking them?

In the US Alanger carries the old ICM 1/48th kits. Good prices although the service is sometimes spotty. I believe they used to "mass market" on e-bay.

I believe the armor may be Maquette (sp).

Last year or so it was mentioned in this group that Alanger of Massachusetts had purchased all the Frog molds from Eastern Express or whoever owned them. Do they actually own the molds or are they importing the finished kits from EE? The Keeper

they sell eastern express kits.

I think that there are two entities here. Alnger in the US seems to be a reseller of eastern Express. I am just about to post some box shots on alt.binaries.models.scale. Have a look there and see if any of these look familiar.

They also sell ICM and PST kits (the latter doesn't ring a bell). They don't seem to have the whole Eastern Express line, for example the 1/72 Yaks which are reboxed Dakoplast kits (and pretty decent). If you're interested in Eastern Express and other Russian kits, Aviapress.com also has a bunch:

the tb3 is ex icm, i have been told. it is an excellent kit, though many small parts and complex assemblys require diligence. it looks like a tb3.
