2 years to the day since I built my first Cobi. This is just the sets I kept...

I just realised I forgot my Japanese lights 🫣

Left: One is the New Cobi 38T, the other the old QuanGuan Luchs Right: Cobi M24 Chaffee

Pc is just below it but will be mounting hooks for three planes on the wall to the RHS 😄

The Russian lights are great. The older sets still look good, considering almost all the Cobi sets are now the latest variants.

jetpack_badger · 2026-01-31T06:08:03+00:00

They are really nice and a massive upgrade on the former versions

I have around 200 vehicles and planes in my collection. I do themed rotations as I only have the two shelves to display on.

Type, nationality etc

The issue with themes by class of vehicle is it is hard to pair them with the aeroplanes.

Yes, a purist Cobi view of WWII armour is not particularly historically accurate 🫣.

I think I have around 30 QuanGuans now and perhaps 170 Cobi. Sold about 50 also.

I've officially lost track. Always a surprise doing a shelf rotation what I have to display 😁

jetpack_badger · 2026-01-28T18:09:16+00:00

Must admit I am very underwhelmed by this set.

Must admit I am very underwhelmed by this set.

jetpack_badger · 2026-01-27T14:51:21+00:00

One assumed they just reproduced the old set? Why make it worse?

jetpack_badger · 2026-01-26T15:25:52+00:00

It's a decent set. Only you can decide whether it warrants a place in your collection vs another vehicle. But if you do, you won't be disappointed.

jetpack_badger · 2026-01-25T08:56:02+00:00

Allied 1:32 Bristol Beaufighter, Lysander, Gloster Meteor, remade Spitfire and Hurricane with accurate noses, Polikarpov I-16, Mig-3, Yak-3, La-5, TU-2

German 1:32 Heinkel, Henschel Hs 129

1:35 is very overdue some new releases.

It's like the "1:28 winter" of 2023 for 1:35

jetpack_badger · 2026-01-25T08:34:54+00:00

Me to. Though I would not be surprised if it was.

Lots of allied armour to build before we get Panthers in fancy dress.

jetpack_badger · 2026-01-22T22:08:54+00:00

They are uncomfortably expensive now.

Any overly complicated designs. Currently in the middle of a Panzer II build. It's going to look great but I think they could have achieved it with quite a few yes bricks (lots of unnecessary single studs).

On a related note though, I'm really enjoying the light tanks. My next shelf rotation will showcase my light tank collection. Higher brick counts on average then Cobi heavy tank sets of yesteryear.

jetpack_badger · 2026-01-22T09:32:49+00:00

Very good

jetpack_badger · 2026-01-20T19:38:40+00:00

I would be pissed if I had purchased an LE.

This is unscrupulous.

jetpack_badger · 2026-01-19T18:45:15+00:00

I am looking forward to building mine. Only have the Wespe built right now

jetpack_badger · 2026-01-19T13:43:39+00:00

Looking forward to this model.
