Nice project. We all know that: Bronco = great kit Regards Przemo

Thanks Darren, This one of those vehicles that I have wanted for a long time. I had one of those Shep Paine diorama sheets that came with the old Monogram SdKfz 234 and it showed how to make a conversion to this vehicle. I never got around to it. Now I can get the Bronco kit. I'm with Przemyslaw....you know Bronco is going to put out an outstanding kit. This is good news. Jeff

Bronco is doing yeoman work on releasing the Early War German vehicles that have been overlooked or are served only by ancient kits. Bravo, Bronco!

Yeah, I remember that one too Jeff. It's a nice time to be a modeller isn't it Bronco really has been kicking butt and taking names with their armor kits in both 1/35 and 1/48. They need to work on their r&d in the naval department, but I'm sure they'll get there. Regardless the engineering of all of their kits I've seen so far has been outstanding, excellent quality control going on here.

viva Bronco, great news!

Hi. As Bronco only seem to be at the CAD stage can I point out a feature of the early 8-Rad series that everybody seems to miss. The fenders/mudguards are not flat, they slope away from the body of the vehicle, presumably to let water run off. Don't take my word for it, check out any photos of these vehicles. I've yet to see one that doesn't show the sloped fenders. Hopefully the designers at Bronco could address this. Having said that, I am happy to see Bronco doing the 263 as I think they will do a fine job though AFV Club may well beat them to the market. Cheers, TimTam27

Tim Tam has a point: http://www.warwheels.net/sdkfz231_232INDEX.html If you look at the tools on top of the fenders, they are definitely at an angle.

I wonder if Bronco will provide for the option of having the main radio antenna fully extended?

I hope so. This are really GREAT news. I love the Sd.Kfz.263. BRAVO, BRAVO, BRAVO, BRONCO!
