Announced a few months ago at the Japan Hobby Show, Dragon Models have now given some details on their VK.45.02(P)H in 1/35th Scale. The first (CAD) images can be seen:

Thanks!

I would like to see one of these kits in person. It is a very odd looking paper panzer that has slowly grown on me, and I guess that I shouldn't be surprised that DML had has this in the works.

I already know one modeller who's going to hamster these like it was crisis

John ...get the Visa out, and start saving


hope the measurements are somewhat "correct"

going to be a whole lot of these on the forum soon, in all kinds of "paperpanzer" cammo's

jummie!

The design of this tank intrigues me. putting aside the problems that may (to my knowledge) rise from having 2 sprockets on a christie type track, i think that once it got into high gear the track would simply cut out the side fenders...

Interesting how this design idea relates to the Merkava... engine in front/midships. Actually, I'm looking forward to the reverse design kit also by DML as it was actually made as a prototype (though I certainly love Paper Panzers!

This would be the Porsche entry into the Tiger 2 competition right?
Was it basically a Ferdinand/Elephant with a turret? (With electric drive like the Elephant?)

Sigh!...Another one-of-a-kind. Would rather see a Jeep and a Schwimmwagen in 1/35.

agreed

I like 'paper panzers', and this is a new one on me.

And I like it!

It looks like the result of a holiday romance between a PzKpfw VI (P) and a "Porsche" turret King Tiger.

I'll probably get one when the price comes down a bit.

It'll be a very expensive kit but probably a best seller...

But considering the absence of some "modeller desired objects", I really don't know why DML gets huge investments on paper panzers....


Anyway, just my two cents

cheers
