Launch of a New Product




Pegasus is launching a new series of flying machines. Their first one is in 1/72nd scale. This model has a pilot facing forward and a second crewman facing to the rear. It is a snap together kit that goes together in about five minutes.



This 1/72nd scale HaT German soldier gives a good idea of the massive scale of the rocket motors. There are four rocket pods that radiate out from the thick central fuselage.




More HaT troops inspecting the rocket motors of this new Pegasus model. It is similar in form to many of the rocket ships seen in science fiction movies in from the 1950's.


The rocket model is a pre-production version and they should be in shops very soon.



The model went together easily, without glue. There was no flash, and it is made of thick styrene plastic. I have been lobbying Pegasus to do a line of spacemen to go with this rocket, but so far to no avail. They have several other spaceships in the pipeline in various stages of production, and in more than one scale.

That looks absolutely fantastic. I can see unlimited Weird War II possibilities with that.

Oh yeah. I can see that bad boy with both White Stars, Red Stars and Swastikas on it for various scenarios! I also see the aliens attacking during WWII and those DTESS scenarios for the 1950s.
