As an RC modeller, I thank you for your great contribution to the golden era of 1/16 scale. These models are often the basis for modification to driving ones. The market for all kinds of accessories and figures has expanded.
Many thanks!
My eyes are killing me (it's late), but I watched this and saw your fantastic models! Wow, Andy! You really are great! I love that Easy 8, man, and all those German pieces! I love that Stug, man! It's hard to rank them, they are all so good! Yeah, take care! We love you, Andy!
I'm still waiting to see your painted 1/16 Scale M10 Achilles Andy.
Congratulations on the awards for the Sherman and the Tiger 1 Early. I bought the latter in March last year and I'm now finally painting it.
Everything looks awesome Andy. How about a video on you or your figure manufacturer doing full paint up of a figure. Thanks in advance. How about a 1/16 scale Hellcat.
Well done Andy! And you are NOT a mediocre modeler.
Thnak you
Andy, your kits are incredible and I own most of them! I’d adore a 1/16 Churchill tank! I’d buy at least two! Can’t wait for the acav! In the mean time please keep producing amazing 1/16 kits!
For me the 1/16th scale kits give people the chance to build at least that one great centrepiece model we all want. They are in fact maybe easier to build than 1/35 and give you the opportunity if you wish, to super detail. Just avoid full interior kits and you'll stay sane. 😫😐
First things first! I love your videos and model kits! So keep up the good work. I like your reviews but I also miss the building videos, I used them as reference and to learn (actually learnt a lot). Greetings from south america
Thank you.
You now have 23 Tigers 🤣
Thank you for all you do to advance our community/hobby!
Yeah he’s in a safari of panzers. 🤣
Awesome work Andy any chance of getting 16th scale soft skin like cargo trucks
I don’t even build military models but these are fanatastic! Think I may have to dive in to one of these. Thanks a lot Andy for adding another project in my life! Lol!
Nice work Andy and you are NOT a mediocre modeler.👍👍👏👏
Thank you.
been missing your builds lately
congratulations on the wins
Hi Andy, any chance we will see a wrecker or a 2 1/2 ton truck?
I’m always open to suggestions.
Did you ever finish the tamiya1/16 centurion?
Great work Andy, looking forward to the M113 and seeing what the new kit will be, glad I got a Tiger I when I did.
Thank you I’m excited to see it too
Hi Andy, that certainly is a great collection of 1/16th kits, way too large for me, I would consider the M113, I would really like to see you go back to the 1/35th scale builds, very happy to see your business go from strength to strength, best regards from Australia, Les
Thank you for taking the time away from your busy business schedule to create these to share. A modeler at heart.
Thank you for watching.
The Panzer I kit would be so nice as a Sturmpanzer I Bison or Panzerjäger I.
Yes I agree
What's missing in the 1/6 and needed are interior detail sets for modelers who want to open everything up to see inside and figures in combat poses. For example, action poses like standing by the turret and firing the 50 BMG, and seated figures driving, loading, and aiming the gun instead of the usual boring standing-around poses that come in just about every kit. BORING! Can we have some action, please!
The Takom jeep is amazing.
Amazing models, awesome scale, my favourite is the The Sturmgeschütz III - you did a great job on that ✌️😊👍💜
Thank you I love that kit
Andy, Many congratulations on the awards…..so well deserved….love the kits……..would absolutely love a Matilda…my Uncle Dennis was in the Desert Rats and the Matilda was the tank he drove into the battle of El Alamein.
I’m sure you can appreciate how much I personally would love such a model.
My family was a large family all of whom other than my father (he was only very young at the time) fought during the War, even my Aunts either made parachutes or ammunition in the factories in and around Wolverhampton (U.K) and my ambition is to build a model celebrating each ones Service……..
Congratulations again.
Very cool, Andy. A couple of questions. First, have you seen something called a "media blaster"? Many years ago I saw a model of a German North Africa vehicle that had been painted a steel color and then had the DAK yellow applied over it. The builder then used the "media blaster" to simulate the wind driven sand that "chipped" away the DAK paint, very realistically. I saw that you heavily chipped your Panzer 1, but thought about how it would look if it was actually "sand blasted". Second, do you have any idea if someone will plan after market parts for your M113 so it can be turned into something newer? I'm not really a 1:16 modeler but if I could produce an M113A3, that would be way cool. Thanks!
Cmon Andy….we need pre dreadnoughts. Use your pull in Europe/Far East🤣🤣🇺🇸
Sherman was my first 1.16 aswell great kit Andy please do the ARV Sherman
We need VW Typ 166 Schwimmwagen Steyr 1500A Ford V 3000 Maultier in 1/16 Andy 🙏🏻
So much for Mediocre 'eh.... I like these and all, but I miss the old channel, building kits that most people could afford and had room for... these 1/16 scale ones are far too large and out of budget for a model kit for me.... it's a switch every once in a while, but nowadays it seems everything is one of these, or some parts review.... I've almost stopped watching where I use to watch every video....
Same here. I will let Andy do the thing he loves. But for me 1/16 just doesn't work. They are rather expensive and I don't know where I'd leave the finished models. Glad there are smaller scales for people like us. :)
You are wrong
How is he wrong? He stated his opinion on the matter. "You are wrong" means someone doesn't gets his facts right. There are no facts in this thread. Only opinions. You can agree or disagree but you cannot say "you are wrong". Especially not without any sort of reasoning.
I love that more company’s are taking on de 1/16 scale kits.
A few years ago you had to wait a long time before there was a new kit.
Same. Miss the old channel
Hi Andy,
What happened to the 1/16th Jagde Panther you built years ago?
Hey Andy!! You want crew on your tanks an not destroy your paint job, well that's easy, just use white Elmer's glue, it will hold any crew in or on your tanks.
Andy, thats business opportunity - do release rotating stand big enough for 1/16 models ;D
Cool video Andy! Keep ‘em coming. Also, a Brit Matilda would be a great addition for your (and our) 1/16 North Africa stable! Or maybe a 1/16 S.A.S. Land Rover Pink Panther! Looking forward to it whatever it is!
Looks great. But the grab handle sprue attachment points look very thick
Jeep and sherman definitely been my favourites up to now currently on greyhound lovely builds andy
Great builds! I have your 1/16 Sherman and Tiger and had a blast with both of them. Unfortunately, the scale is just too large for me and the space I have. However, I may have to squeeze in the M113 since my uncle served in Vietnam on one.
Chinese Tankette, Japanese Tankette... looks good anyway!
Great video Andy and even better collection of 1/16kits ,truly a master modeler
Hoping for m18 hellcat ww2 tank next or a m26 Pershing, can't wait for the next kit 😊
Stayed tuned next kit is going to be exciting
Will steel or iron rust in 1) a completely arid environment that is 2) so hot water evaporates before it can pool?
I'd really appreciate an M3 Stuart in 1/16 scale.
Sure wish they would do a Japanese type 97 tank.

Andy, I hope you and your circle are well.
As I watch your video chronology, I imagine what I would do had I a similar kit collection. I envision a troop convoy of platoon or company size with a couple early M-4 Sherman U.S. Army medium tanks, a few Jeeps (Willys Overland M-38 U.S. Army ¼-ton 4×4 general purpose light utility trucks), an M-16 half-track with a Quad-mount turret of four Browning M-2, 50-cal machine-guns, several GMC CCKW 353 U.S. Army 2.5-ton 6×6 cargo trucks (I know of no such kit; however, a RUclipsr [I cannot recall who] had mentioned on another channel that he knew of a fellow who makes 3D kits replicating this vehicle [likely amongst others] in various scales of astounding detail and accuracy, even in 1:72nd-scale! One was a 1:16th-scale RC model capable of driving through an actual snowfall.
German conveyances such as those you show (half-tracks, cargo trucks, tanks, armoured cars, the wreck of a downed Luftwaffe fighter or dive bomber, etc.), I would pose as severely battle-damaged equipment discarded or abandoned at the roadside.
In another video, I read a report on a vintage Bandai kit of the 1937 Rolls Royce Phantom III Sedan (RUclips “This 1937 Rolls Royce kit is enormous!!! I had no idea the box would be this big!!” [Model Car Videos, Monday, 9 October, 2023]), which I would place near to the end of the queue, to dramatise a wealthy, elderly English couple making passage with the soldiers in the effort to make their way across the pastoral Italian countryside of late spring eventually to return to the quiet comforts of his familial estate in southwestern Great Britain.
At round 9:00, you mention “Das Werk’s very first 1:16th-scale kit, . . . the StuG IIIG”, explaining that you had built it in “2001, . . . a little over three years ago . . . .” (then at 10:09) “We announced it at the IPMS [International Plastic Modeler’s Society] Nationals right after CoVid happened in the [Las] Vegas show.” I am trying to sort the chronology, to determine the origins of kits as their availability lapses.
Your figure painting is brilliant, got Twins in the m8
Hi Andy, thanks for taking your time from your daily business and showing us these very nicely done models (I miss your build videos, I was re-watching some of them just for the fun of it). Unfortunately I cannot follow you into the 1:16 country (albeit it would do wonders for my eye sight painting the details) but I just don't have the space to exhibit them. Do you have your own model gallery ? ;-)
If you're into the North African theater, could/would you do British vehicles ? Are there even 1:16 Matilda IIs and Crusaders ? Not to mention the rather quirky looking early english light and cruiser tanks.
PS: Do you still have some of these "Mediocre Modeller" T-shirts on sale ? From AAHQ Europe ? I'd love to buy a couple of them ;-)
Take. a. Look. at. My. Built. 1/16. Model. Collection
1/16 is too big. They should do 1/24.
Great builds cool vid 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you it’s good to look back at what I have built over the years.
Superb creations Andy, I already have 3. But please, produce a 1/16 Harley iron horse..... it's very lacking in this scale. Do you think you will do it in the near future? Thanks
Really, really nice. I have a 1/16th Challenger 2 that I'm playing with at the moment but I don't have another 1/16th hole for anything else.
Now you are doing a 1/16th M113!
I haven't worked out YET how I could get away with buying one when it comes out. Most models I can resist the temptation but I do love the M113.
Great models. By the way, the left track on your Pz. I Ausf. A is mounted in reversed running direction.
I, like others, have mixed feelings towards 1/16 scale. Too large for me to put anywhere. Even a small base for them has the size of a full blown 1/35 diorama. Putting an aftermarket crew into them easily turns into a three-digit- endeavor. I have decided to just have two models in this scale, my own personal favored tanks, one of them being Andy’s own Tiger model (with a third of the initial investment spent on top for a correction set. And some more for a new tank commander). Everything else is and will continue to be in 1/35.
I remember the quaint diorama videos you posted way back in the original smaller shop.
Great video !! Do you think we will ever see any 1/16 engines for our bigger tanks ?
Hopefully some aftermarket
@@AndysHobbyHeadquarters hopefully one day
I was looking for some of these 1/16 reviews, thanks!
Glad I could help!
I very miss your build video
Very nice collection ! 1/16 is my favourite scale...the only problem ... You need space in your home !
What happened to the British tank destroyer?
It’s not done yet . I show it in the video
@@AndysHobbyHeadquarters Andy, thanks for the update. They all look great, excellent work
Makes mine amateurish!
Great video & beautiful work on your 1/16 scale models. Keep it up!😁✅
Thank you very much!
3:58 The Panzer 1 Ausf B gun mantlet is upside down !. All these are stunning kits though
So many models
Great video
thank you Andy for all these beautiful 1/16 kits. It’s a very interesting scale and one that can be detailed in abundance. (by the way, I really enjoyed building your M8). Continue in this direction. Have a good one.
Thank you I appreciate it.
👍👍👏👏
Just wow!!!!!
Thank you
Salut belle brochette de maquettes et le Abraham's au 1/16,????
You are a really good modeler, Andy!
Thank you very much
Really looking forward to the M113!!😎
Me too , very soon
jolie collection ;)
Thanks 😁
Thanks for all the work that you do in the Hobby. Love the videos!
Thanks for watching!
Nice work Andy!
Congratulations on your kit of the year
Thank you!
Fantastic job, wishing you continued success. I must get my hands on a 1/15 Tiger !
Thanks for watching
@@AndysHobbyHeadquarters Oops 1/16th Tiger, as always great videos.
That scale is the best IMO
What can I say. No Soviet armor here. Who in a world needs 113 while we don’t have is2 or is3? Su76? We have couple t34 but they pretty lame on modern standards
Or some inter/early war soviet desings
Soviet is bit... tacky this days in case you didn't noticed.
@@randomnickify how so? I don’t need any modern armor. But we don’t have ww2 armor which fights against nazis. Furthermore we have 113 which run all over the place in some Eastern European country
All Hail KING ANDY !!
1:16 all day! Best scale ever
Yep, it is
Wow, these look really great!
Glad you like them!
Impressionnant !!!! BRAVOS!!!!!!
Thank you.
Nice, Andy! A suggestion for 1/16 scale model candidate: Eddie Rickenbacker, WWI ace either in a Spad XIII, or in an early Indycar, or both.
Be nice if an aftermarket company makes the external tanks for the M113 to convert it to an A3 version or even the slate armor upgrade... :)
I’d like to see less 1/16 as well,I also liked the older videos that had assorted builds,it’s like the same kits over and over,Nigel did the same with Lancasters,and I unsubscribed to his channel.Can we hope for more build videos for builders that can’t afford these 1/16 huge kits
I like the 1:16 scale but with 1:16 and 1:48 armour matching the standard aircraft scales why can’t someone like Tamiya break into 1:32 scale armour, call it MM 32, and upscale their 1:35 best examples to 1:32.
