Nice to see the long-gun versions of the Pz IV getting attention. This one's definitely on my "buy" list.

Same here Bill, along with the more than likely to follow H & J variants.

I had always liked the Pz IV over most other German tanks. So, this one might just find a home in my stash closet some time soon.
Nice looking and different deatils on this one.

WOW!!!! I'm gonna buy this kit based on the box art alone!!! I find myself slightly aroused. Anyone know if those infantry figures come with it?

Dave,
DML kits don't typically come with figures included in the box. There are exceptions to this, usually with their earlier releases, but very rarely seen now as a common practice.

Always interested in soft skin armor this one looks like a nice place to start.

I don't think that this is calssified as "soft skin". Am I wrong about that? When I hear soft skin I think Marders,Hellcats,SPGs. Anyone?

I did the same thing. I wrote the kit number down on my yellow post it note pad along with the few other Dragon kits I have my eyes on. The bad thing is I have it here at work and not at home. My wife told me I need to start finishing kits instead of buying more of them. I suppose she is right, but it is just so hard to stop picking up kits when they look so darn good.
Oh well, if I can get one at my not so local hobby store this Friday I might be able to sneak it in the house before she sees it.
