I'm happy to present you the latest addition to our Spanish Civil War flag ranges at either 1:100, 1:72 and 1:56 scales - those of Mackenzie-Papineau Battalion, a mainly Canadian unit belonging to the ever glorious 15th International Brigade.
Our ever growing SCW flag listing currently comprises the following sets: 1:100 or 15mm, 1:72 or 20mm, and 1:56 or 28mm. All them are presented as DIN A7 sized paper sheets with three textured flags each.

Please allow me a few preliminary words to explain my long lasting silence of the last weeks. Last month, my wife suffered an accident by which she got her left ball joint broke into pieces, after slipping on a wet pavement and falling to ground with so a bad luck that all her (otherwise light) weight struck violently onto her left knee. Such unfortunate accident has left me with little time free for anything else than taking your kind orders, so nearly no other noticeable activity from Minairons has been observed for one long month. She's recovering fast and in good shape though, so I'm currently feeling pretty optimistic --despite she's going to require intensive care for a while still, so my own activity isn't going to retake a regular rate for some weeks yet.
While awaiting the moment to resume a regular activity, let me show you a latest hour addition to our 1:100th and 1:72nd scales SCW ranges: Harley-Davidson Flathead motorcycle, a vehicle widely used in Spain --especially by the Assault Guards but also by other Republican regular units.
These are in fact the vehicle-only versions of a rider-bike set already released both in 1:100 and 1:72 scales some time ago, thus allowing to users the chance to use the motorcycle separately from any rider, for their own purposes. The 15mm version blister comprises two motorbikes while just one the 20mm version --both inclusive of optional stands, and both selling at €2.95 the blister.
More exciting news are awaiting their turn for a release. Please keep tuned!

Wish you are enjoying this new 2020 year! Let's salute it from Minairons miniatures with a new release - that of a new 1/144 scale aircraft, suitable for several Interwar to WWII settings.
This new boxed model kit contains 9 finely cast resin parts, white metal pilot and gunner kindly supplied by Peter Pig, as well as a decal sheet comprising markings not only for SCW (both sides), but also for WWII Greek service too.
Thanks for reading,

I'm proud to present you a new range of weird, futuristic and/or unusual WWII vehicle model kits, born as a collaboration project between Minairons miniatures and ResinLab models. By this agreement, our brands are going to develop jointly that new range - keeping ResinLab for itself the original 1/35th scale version, while Minairons is to commercialise as own its 1/72nd version.
As a first result of such collaboration (ideally involving soon a third brand and a couple of scales else), I'm happy to show you our first joint release: the quite mysterious Kugelpanzer, a small spheric German AFV - only one sample of which is known, captured by the Red Army in Manchuria and currently kept at Kubinka Museum.
I've just released a new set of WSS infantry flags at 1/100, 1/72 and 1/56 scales altogether.
These belong to 1706-1709 Valencia City I.R., another unit of Charles Habsburg's peninsular army:
