Resin refueling sets in 1/72 from Hippo (CZ)
The Hippo website hasn't been updated for a while and doesn't reflect the fact that the 1/72 refueling sets have now been released:
Hippo models - Zeppelin LZ41 (naval type)
The pictures below came from Modelimex site where the sets sell for € 7.98
if you live outside the EU:
MODELIMEX - HIPPO MODELS (CZ)
Expensive, but hard to scratchbuild the wheels. The sets look similar except that the German set has a horizontal fuel drum and British upright. Nice for a little diorama with ground crew working on the engine. See the two pics of white metal figures from Monty's Model railways in OO gauge (20mm). The chap with milk churn could be great on a ladder looking over an exposed Roden engine (sans churn of course) . . .
Cheers
James
