Fonderie Miniatures' Peugeot DMA has finally shown up as in stock at Squadron. Going for $49.46.

And Yes I already ordered mine.

Yep, I'm excited over this one, although it's not going to be a Dragon or Trumppeter, or Tamyia like tooling. It's the great mystery kit that has been getting listed on and off as coming for at least the last two years by Squadron.
Should make a lot of German soft-skin builders happy also, as the Germans also used these.

Hi Dave

A new one to me, I've never heard of the company. A quick Google search got me the web site, but that's giving out "under construction" and other links went to 1/48 scale aircraft, which seemed a bit specialist in that they are vac formed, resin etc. kits. So will this be the same 1/48 scale do you think, vac formed and resin? Do they do any other AFV items?

Looks to be a good addition to those interested in the soft skinned vehicles of WW2.

Hi Alan
You can order some Fonderie Miniature stuff from Azimut Productions website
AFAIK these are complete kits (base kit from another manufacturer + conversion parts) : the GMC fuel truck kit includes Heller's truck and the LAV-AD is based on Italeri's LAV kit....
BTW, Azimut has released a resin1/35 Peugeot DMA (at a resin kit price )
