GHQ

1/285 Modern and WWII

reviewed by Bill Rutherford

GHQ, 2634 Bryant Avenue South, Minneapolis, MN 55408. GHQ is still at it! They continue to expand their modem range with several British vehicles based on the FV432APC-the FV438 Swingfire ATGM launcher is pictured, the Saracen/Saladin, the French armored car, a complete redo of the American M551 Sheridan, two variants - cargo and bowswer - of the H EMMT, also pictured, and a 5 ton wrecker (pictured, too). Oh - an AV813 Harrier hasjust come out, and is, like the rest, very nice. A look at the GHQ stand at Origins'91 showed for WWII a Soviet Gaz AA truck - the license-built Ford that everybody seemed to use - it's quite well done, the Soviet 100mm ATC, to put some punch in those panzers, and a Thor! Everybody should want at least one (ok, maybe two) of these behemoth German self propelled mortars - the model comes complete with PzIV ammo wagon and is a beauty - I just cannot imagine trying to field very many of them! I'm told the Soviet Zis series trucks are on the way and look forward to them!
