I saw pics from Nuremberg of a new tool 1/72 Dora from Hobby Boss.
Anyone else stoked about this one?

I hope it brings some attention to some AM companies, and hope to have it spill over to the 35 scale beasty sitting in my "to do" pile...I'll be getting one for sure.

I also saw this nice thing on the pictures.
The "small" scale can be a good start for a complete diorama scene without the need of a large base.

I hope Hobby Boss make some more railcars in 1/72. I have the BR52 locomotive and the Leopold, but they would never have hooked the Leopold directly to the locomotive, they would have had some flatcars or other types between them to allow slack for positioning the gun, as well as to keep the sudden pulling power of the locomotive from ripping the drawbars out of both of them.
So Hobby Boss, PLEASE, some more 1/72 railcars, just plain old everyday boxcars and flatcars!!!!

I just brought one home :
PE for the walkways. Many parts wrapped and bagged for protection. 8 rail bogies
Full decals
Size comparison to my 1/35th scale

Check out the price at Hobbyeasy or Luckymodel, it's a lot less than $300 (including shipping).

It was 285 at my LHS, I picked it up.
Box fits in seat area, not like my 1/35th one
