ICM Holding has sent Armorama news of three new 1/35th scale German soft skins. There is not a lot of information available on these products as yet with the exception of the Krupp L3H163, WWII German Army Truck which has been covered during its progress. Take a look inside for more details.

I love these car and truck kits. For years we've been asking for softskin vehicles and finally...... it's not raining....it's pouring great kits!

PS: I have the ICM G4 kit and it looks like a very nice kit in the box.

After the Ford V3000 truck, wonder if the kit is based on Elite Model kit (Euro $100+ ) decades ago ? Like Bronco kits are they copied from France Azimut Production back dated from the 90's ?

Kits looked like identical, except the price are way lot cheaper @

I agree; don't know why but right now, if i were actually building, my interest is on cars, trucks, jeeps, etc. Man, doesn't that Krupp L3H163!

I would say if any company is creating a model of the same subject then there is a strong possibility when put together they are going to look somewhat similar
