Those two should be very good to compete with Tamiya offerings. Any info on how soon they will be available?

No info at all so far.. just this poster. I personally thought they should have chosen something more original to draw more interest.. In any case, I hope they grow and make more kits.. maybe one of them will be something I like

Hisham

Yeah, like a Tiger I!

Maybe they will be better detailed then the Tamiya offerings, maybe include engine detail, positionable doors, etc.

Nice to see a new company, and will wait till we see them to make judgement.

this brand new company the models are in all scales or maybe in one particular scale? plastic or resin?

Google didn't bring up much more than an unfinished web page for me.

I hardly think that counts as original

Seriously though.. never know, could be the start of a good thing

A really super-detailed Kubelwagen has been a wish of mine for a long time. If it's a better kit than either Dragon or Tamiya, it will be worth it. Otherwise, why bother?

For me dimensionally accurate kits with reasonable amount of PE, decals for instrument panel and non-vinyl tyres (wide ones for the Schwimm) would be enough to buy them.

No figures included, no wide tyres...Can't see any evident advantages over good old Tamiya kits...

They do look like simple kits (From a distance)... Maybe they just wanted something simple to break into the market with.. To this day I don't understand how model manufacturers decide what to release, and based on what criteria exactly... But good luck to them

Hisham

Nice to see another company but agree doing something more original would probably have made more of an impact. Look at Meng and Takom with their WW1 tanks for instance.

There are two Tiger I's in the background of the box-art so maybe there is hope that we finally get a Tiger I in 1/35th

Hey, no ones done that Tiger I with the crew holding a pack of UK cigarettes yet!

Hope they do well, the more the merrier.

A welcome option to what's currently available indeed. However I'd be more interested if they do release variants of the Kubel and Schwimm. Or maybe even just conversion bits that can go on top of their base release. Looking forward to hear more.
