Has anyone seen the new HF/AFV website?
Is it me doing something wrong? I can't make heads or tails of it!
No matter what I seem to do I cant get past the exploding grenades on the home page.
Any Ideas would be welcomed.

Same problem here. I can only assume that they think that their products don't require any publicity. How very lucky for them....Jim

Same problem here-would seem that AFV club/hobby fan also produce guns, grenades and bikes??Maybe they are a sister company of a larger Taiwan toy company.
If you want to see a list of Hobby fan products go to the Jaguar models website

I am actually looking for replacement parts for an AFV kit.....its actually a Revell Germany boxed kit of the British Scorpion, however RG has said that its out of production...so I am basically SOL.
Then you go to the HobbyFan/AFV site...and its a bunch of gibberish.
Anyone know where I could get replacement parts???
The sprue of the turret is a little warped..to the point that I don't think the hot water treatment will reverse it...so I was looking for a replacement sprue.
Any help would be much appreciated!!

When I click on the lemon-shaped frag grenade, top one, it takes me to their modeling products pages. Works for me.

Works fine for me too. Like Gino said, click on the Frag Grenade for the model section, The Smoke Grenade is for their weapon stuff.

I got in, but it was all Chinese. Found what I thought was an english switch, but that wouldn't click. No matter, I can get most of the stuff I need through one of the big mail orders here in the states.

Maybe my post wasn't clear...I did contact Revell Germany....they said it was OOP and that I was basically SOL.
So far I can only get the HobbyFan in Chinese....not much use there.

If you click on the top (frag) grenade you get access to 5 pages.
I think they are all related to the top 'box' on the left marked 'NEW'
The chinese script along the top takes you elsewhere.
third button with big up 'arrow' in it.
But the site seems much more labour intensive than it used to be.
Still, maybe in time I'll find the right pages.
all the best,
Tom
