Hi,

Few minutes ago I received a BIG parcel with latest Trumpeter release- Bundeswehr Faun Franziska SLT 56. What a kit!!! Big box is full of parts. First look allow me to say: guys from China are incredible!!!! Quality of parts is very high. I will start its construction even today.

Hmmm - Bundeswehr, hmmm

Lots of good models out there. I wonder if Modern German equipment is as popular as the WW II stuff...

Gunnie,

For sure modern German armour will not be as popular as WW2 stuff. But even know Bundeswehr tools can be one of the most wanted subjects among modern armour maniacs. Guys from Tamiya, Trumpeter and Revell are doing excellent job for them.

...Ghostrider - the pattern is full...

Excuse my "Top Gun" flashback...

The slate this year is full - but next year is rapidly approaching! That will give some time for modelers interested in Modern German or European to get ideas together.

You know what's nice is that Revell-Germany is doing a lot of the Bundeswehr stuff in 1/35. Heller is doing modern French stuff in 1/35 ,too. I have to admit that I'm a WWII fan but occasionally I'll do a modern vehicle. The last one i did was a French AMX Auf. That's a nice big vehicle. See ya. Jeff
