New CMPs in plastic from Ireland

15cwt
Otter
C15 Armoured truck

Never thought I'd see these in plastic 1/35

At last!

I'll be recommending they do a 3 tonner ASAP either in 12 or 13 Cab.

Lets hope all these kits are priced reasonably.

As I said years ago on another thread, Italieri have lost the plot - when you compare all the variations of the OPEL Blitz we have to endure its a shame they never bothered to develop the 1/35 scale Chevy C15 Blitz they have been producing on and off since taking over mould from Airfix, which in turn was a very old 1970s kit that I think originated from Max or Peerless?

Planned for 2013:

• CMP Chevrolet HUP
• CMP Ford FAT
• CMP C30 Chevrolet GS
• CMP F60L Ford Workshop

I guess this list will be longer because Mirror Models has sister company LZ Models which produces limited variants of kits like C15A Cab 11/12 Water Tank Lorry.

F15A surely ?
 

Looks like a F15A to me

The Morris CS8 is of interest to me , the larger metal Cs8's offered on EBAY are very expensive .

Hi Mike,
Looking at the website, I think the following paragraph on there explains it;

I have one of their kits here and had a hand in supplying a few measurements for the model. This is a finely detailed kit of the C15A and is true to scale. Mirror Models intend on having a complete lineup of all CMP vehicles from 15cwt up to 3 ton in both Ford and Chev. Not sure about the 8cwt though. :thup2:

Coooooool!!!
 

Holy crap, they look good.

Now I can make a tiny one as well :D

Impressive Detail
 

Hi All

Just spent some time roaming around the web site take a look at http://www.mirror-models.com/c15a_assembly.pdf they are putting a lot of effort in to the level of detail.

As soon as somebody spots that any of the other models have been posted please let the rest of us know. Some interesting ones to come

CMP Chevrolet HUP

Apologies for the late reply. Have not been anywhere near a computer let alone MLU for a couple of weeks.

They are not bad examples are they? :thup:

The kit 35101 arrived the other day complete with etch kit ,very nice, only thing incorrect so far is the ford gearbox [ complete with tire compressor ]. good kit 0n C15A.

and a lot more to come. LZ models which is a sister company to Mirror Models makes assessories for the Mirror Kits. While these models are not for the beginner they have taken great pains to make the kits as accurate as possible. At present it is mainly Chev's in the line up BUT Ford CMP's are coming soon along with a HUP and other vehicles like a Diamond T wrecker in plastic and indian WW2 motor bike. :)

Scott,

I merged your thead with an earlier on on the same subject.

Not from Mirror Models you can't. All these are in 1/35 scale which I (for one) do not regard as tiny! Now, if they did them all again in 1/76 scale I might well be tempted.

Chris

So from the above are you saying that the Chevrolet 35101 has the wrong gearbox from a Ford? Do they do a Ford F15 as well?

Having said that they are still great kits

NB - For small scale I think 1/72 would be better as most kits are in this scale now.

I like the water truck. Now if I drop the tank on the Cab 13 it would be even better.

I have notified Libor (Mirror Models) and told him about this gearbox mistake. I checked my two kits (GS & water tanker) and both have the Ford gearbox. I am doing the GS as an early no vent 11 cab Chev C15A but have purchased the 'LZ' 4X2 conversion as well as the 12 cab conversion kit to do the water tanker as a 4X2 12 cab.

These kits are NOT for beginners either and I have to do just a little at a time as well but they will make up to be a really good detailed model. Ford versions are on the way along with 30cwt and 60cwt versions of both Ford and Chev. :thup2:

PS> LZ Models is owned by the same folk as Mirror Models
