Some details are in the Sd.Kfz.234/4 kit that was announced by Dragon at Nuremberg, and there might a little more to the kit.

Glad to see Dragon returning to their "slice" technique on tires which MiniArt had appropriated from them lately. A vehicle with this much rubber on the road needs good wheels. Thanks, Darren, for the update!

I feel gypped. I finally found a DRA-6221; and, now you tell me that the suspension in this kit isn't authentic.
I guess I'll take two. I like to buy these kits in pairs. It's a symmetry thing.

I wonder if they will reissue their other 234's with these new items? I have already build the /4, (a great kit) so will pass, but am interested in other variants..

Great! Gotta love the Sd.Kfz.234. Perhaps one will be rolling onto my bench someday.

I hope they'll go into new 1/35 kits of other 8 wheel ACs, like 231, 232, 233, 263, and whatever if this sells.

In five years DML will re-re-release the kit with the coffee cup holders and stereo sound system that the final versions had.

Revell already announced a 1/25 "2 in 1" version with optional lowrider hydraulics and cholo graphics, ese. It'll be part of their "Donk Tank" series:
