An RPF Open Source 5 ft Millennium Falcon Build/Reference Thread. All Are Welcome

Getting closer. Still need a few parts. I'm hoping to have the numbers on them today and then I'll upload them to my shared drive. (Link in first post)

I think these tank wheels are Tamiya Centurion 3. The road wheel looks to be 1/25 and the drive sprocket looks to be 1/35. I'm away from my kits until tonight but I can look when I get home.

I've come real close to finding this guy. There are a few Hasegawa that are close. IF anyone has an idea or a hint, I'd appreciate it.

Fujimi 1/76 German Troop Carrier Sd.Kfz. 251/1/10 parts #58/59

OR

Esci 1/72 German Half-Track Hanomag Rocket Launcher Sd.Kfz 251/1 (which has the pieces you need for the sidewall of the turret gun rings).

Both kits have these same pieces.

Thanks. I knew it had to be something like a Hanomag. In fact the ESCI is what set me off on the search. I'm not sure if there are different versions, but my ESCI Rocket kit doesn't have the detail that the Fujimi has above the pegs. . Another kit to add to the list. :) Here's a pic of my ESCI vs the actual part.

Okay, JCoffman is correct -- the correct greeblies are ONLY on the Fujimi 1/76 German Troop Carrier -- they are NOT in the Esci "Rocket Launcher" (which you also need) kit.

The difference is in the pieces and in the part numbers. The correct part numbers are #45/47, whereas the wrong part numbers (on the Esci kit) are #58/59.

Correct Fujimi parts #45/47 on the left - longer front, raised nibs above each axle, and front/rear angle differences.

Incorrect Esci parts #58/59 on the right: 8 axles, similar color, similar shape, and yet not the same at all.

Thanks for the eagle eyes, JCoffman!

So, to reiterate: Left = Right, and Right = Wrong

Clear?
