Victoria Miniatures Tanks

This time around I'm taking a look at Victoria Miniatures based in  me with tAustralia.provided They very kindly sent me a selection heof goodies to review so thank again guys!

First up is the Kangaroo APC and Matilda battle tank.



The Matilda Battle Tank comes with options to have side sponsons, and also has space to attach magnets should you wish to swap out the parts





The Kangaroo hull sides come in two seperate parts and it's worth measuring up the sides with tracks to make sure they fit properly.



These make great alternatives to a Leman Russ and Chimera tanks. The models are a little costly to buy when compared to GWs plastics, but don't forget GW sets the prices in countries like Australia very high for there own products, so these reflect that, and make a great choice for fielding in a Astra Militarum or other sci fi force.







They are made from high quality resin and are fantastic to put together. Minimum flash and the clean up and build was very quick, with just a few instances of cutting off flash and cleaning up mold lines.

All the parts go together seemlessly and the turret weapons are interchangeable and each kit comes with a decent choice and can also be swapped between the two tanks giving great customisation.

There is space to put magnets into the side sponsons should you wish to change out the weapon loads. The APC also has space for a magnet on the front of the hull to swap out the hull mounted heavy bolter or flamer.


The Kangaroo APC comes with a heavy flamer and heavy bolter for the hull whilst the turret has a laser cannon, twin heavy bolters or twin heavy flamers whilst the Matilda  comes with large cannon (Vanquisher) , standard battle cannon, or twin autocannons.






Overall these are fantastic models, full of character and the details are super sharp. Looking forward to using these on the tabletop!
