Hobby Boss have just made available images from their 2010 catalogue. The emphasis is clearly on modern subjects although WWII also makes an appearance. The Photo-Report can be seen:

Thank you for the information.
Thatīs interesting, the CV-90 was also announced by Trumpeter.
But the big Dora could be a very popular kit ! The lenght of the completed gun should be ca. 50 cm, so possibly one can build a nice dio for this beast.
Also the russian armored train is an interesting thing. As I know, there are only resin-kit of these available.
That will be an interesting next year!

Yes, I think so. The Trumpeter-man showed us here a handmaster.

Some really great releases coming out!
I like that Hummer look-alike.... Also the CDN Leopard with the slat.... which leads me to asking the same question again... why is it they can do slat for this Leopard and Trump's Challenger II but not for the Stryker kits?
That Dora also looks tempting at this scale.
I'll start saving some more!

Very Exciting News, Thanks for posting Jim!!
Love seeing more modern kits being released. My hat is off too to Hobbyboss for releasing more Scandinavian vehicles onto the market!
..maybe they'll consider producing the XA-180 APC series

The Chinese Humvee is an interesting kit. Between the Canadian Leo and teh new Trumpy Chally II release it will be interesting to see how the slat armor looks - that is important for those of us without the micro-origami skills needed to do PE in 99% of the situations they are sold for.
Come on any spotting of the aircraft release page yet?

Agreed, on both points.
Pity the PLA don't think of aesthetics when designing their APCs. They just don't look.....right?

Why not make the Russian armoured train 1/35 ?
Very different, very cool and not German.

hehe, let's make it clear. trumpeter and hobbyboss are actrually the same company and GAOYUE(iamsu7) is the R&D manager of both. The releases of CV90 series belong to HOBBYBOSS.

Yes, I also read it somewhere on the net and itīs a plausible solution.
Iīve wondered about the BR-52 steam-loco and other "scaled-down" products...
Thanks and greetings.
