Wrong mini!

[josta59]

This is technically a toy, but it's so nice and so perfect for my table that I just think of it as a mini that I didn't have to assemble or paint.

What I ordered: a preassembled, prepainted M2/M3 Bradley. I was pretty excited. I was finally getting a Bradley on my table, and it would look great because I didn't paint it. And it's metal! 🎸

What I got: Right package, wrong mini!

The package:



The mini:




As pretty as that is, it's obviously not a Bradley or anything close. It's an M270 MLRS! Which is another mini this company made.

I wanted an MLRS eventually, but they could've at least sent the green camo version, which they also made.

The size is perfect for my table, and it looks amazing. As a long-range support vehicle, it'll be a fun moving target on my table, but it can't really participate in my little skirmishes.

Other than putting this mini in the wrong package, I do recommend Can.Do Pocket Army toys by Dragon Models.

That’s an awesome looking mini!!! Pity they sent the wrong one, but you should write to them a friendly email, with those very same pictures, explaining the mix up…I wouldn't be surprised if they didn’t make it right by sending you a Bradley (…always worth a shot). As far as wrong camo color, just consider it a quick mobilization of what they had on hand

1:144 is a nice scale…I had several WWII minis in that scale from Walmart, at one time. I believe I gave those all to Kent some time ago, as I ended up not using them for a home brew game I was thinking of putting together. It’s a scale that fits in great with N-Scale model railroading, of which I know a lot of your diorama structures are in that range; but it’s always been associated as acceptable use with 15mm, being juuuuuussst a tad bigger, as I recall.

My figures are 10mm, so this works very well.

I bought this on eBay, so you get what you get.

I would write them as Em suggests, they probably would send you the Bradley and keep this one for your trouble.

And although we here know the difference between a toy and mini, outside the hobby they are all toys. Just ask my wife! 😂
