Does anyone know if there are any 1/350 scale LCMs, LSTs, etc.?
I won a lot of 1/72 scale armor kits on eBay recently. Included in this set were several sets of 1/350 WW2 US Shermans and Stuarts as well as a set of WW2 Soviet tanks.
They were rather neat so I'd like to load them up in landing ships or crafts. I did a search and only found 1/400 scale Heller LSTs. I'm not sure if they would work or not, they are inexpensive so I may give it a go.
I would prefer 1/350 so any help would be appreciated. I can also spare some of these if anyone needs a few tanks to fill a spot.

Hi Rob,
Iron Shipwrighr makes an LCS, LCI, LSM and LST in 1/350. I believe the LSM ans LST come with vehicles of some sort, and the others were for troops only. An interesting diorama possibility with the extra vehicles though.....Mike T

Wow for resin 350 scale ships those guys have some decent prices. I've seen similar models go for at least $100 more. Of course anything over $50 exceeds my budget right now. Been trying to save my pennies for the Nimitz
