With the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thejoyof6.co.uk\/\">Joy of 6 <\/a>show in Sheffield coming up in July, we want to have a number of new 6mm items for that event and the aim is to release a steady trickle between now and the show. I&#8217;ve been asked several times if we&#8217;re going to release some of our recent new 15mm vehicles in 6mm &#8211; the answer is most definitely yes, and here&#8217;s the proof. We&#8217;ve scaled down the new <a href=\"http:\/\/www.brigademodels.co.uk\/15mmSF\/Hammers%20Slammers\/HS15-414.html\">Larminat<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.brigademodels.co.uk\/15mmSF\/Hammers%20Slammers\/HS15-311.html\">Eisenfaust<\/a> tanks and the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.brigademodels.co.uk\/15mmSF\/Hammers%20Slammers\/HS15-312.html\">Kastenwagen<\/a> platoon APC, plus the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.brigademodels.co.uk\/15mmSF\/Mercenary%20Brigade\/SF15-1509a.html\">Kirin<\/a> walker to 6mm.
