No, it''s certainly not armor or figures, but many Dio builders will be licking their lips at the prospect of this on the back of a Famo or Dragon Wagon. Here are more images of Bronco Model's 1/35th scale German Seehund XXVIIB/B5 Submarine. The Latest photos can be seen:

Hisham, It scales out to be about 13" long. I'm really looking forward to this one. Al

Hi all. Any news concerning the release date?



Off the top of my head, I think (and don't quote me on this) it might be July/August this year...

I like the look of this one and after a browse around their site they have some verry neat kits. The V weaspons could be very useful items and I can see both the mini sub and V bombs having fallen into Allied hands!

I wonder if anyone will do an X Craft in 1/35 plastic?

Ohh, this one seems to be a big kit. I calculated it to 33cm or nearly one foot.
Thatīs an interesting vehicle!

Thanks for this...

Hi Guys,

Yes this is a realy nice kit from Bronco, it all fits perfect noneed to use any putty on the boot.
Only the fitting of the extra feul tanksgive a small filling problem.

But there is a real problem when looking at the torpedo's.

See my comments that I already did post on the S-100 forum site


XXX
Thanks for thequick answers but today I found this web side

http://cs.finescale.com/FSMCS/forums/p/129180/1306500.aspx

with the colours setting for four differend G7 types

It shows 4 types of the G7 and diferend colours

The first one looks like the S-100 type
But the second and third like the Seehund S7 with the diferend rudder layout.

Difereance between S-100 and Sehund

Orginal G7-a 7.163 mtr x 53.3 cm

Italery S-100 20.5mm x 15.0 mm
20.5x35 = 717.5 = Original 7.163 mtr in lenght correct
15.0x35 = 52.5 = Original 53.3 cm in widht corect

Bronco G7e t3
Seehund 21,6 mm x 17,4 mm
21.6x35 = 756 = 7.56 mtr
17.4x35 = 60.9 cm


As far as I can find the measurement of all types of the G7 are standard this would mean that the Bronco torpedo is incorrect in its measurements.
