For some years the vacuforming process offered the modeller the only alternative to injection moulded parts when converting or 'customising' plastic kits. A high standard of detail was possible with vacuforming and a number of AFV subjects were released. The process did not lend itself to huge production runs and those kits shown here have become quite rare. Vacuforms were largely overtaken by highly detailed accessory kits made of resin, modelers opting to combine these - with their excellent durability - with new major component parts cut from plastic sheet. Vacuforms have not entirely disappeared however and still figure in 'mixed media' conversion work on tanks and AFVs.
