Another one for the collection, considering I think I have every other German flak gun in 1/35 with the possible exception of a flak 30 which I think the only one ever produced was by ESCI Allot of the ones in my collection/stash are Tamiya and I know there are newer kits out there, but we will see about replacements. Back to the subject hand. I cant wait this look pretty darn good

Probably, a dedicated set of figurines for this model will appear soon. And then a full set (figurines & model).

Flak is good, and new flak gun kits better.

Having built Dragon 2cm Flak 38 kit(s) (flakpanzers, flak track, flak guns), I'll bet this one will be a good addition to the shelf and collection. And I may eventually get one. (Though I firmly believe it will be really hard for Dragon to surpass the Tristar 38-late kit )

But Dragon could, I think, get a LOT more sales of a 2cm gun kit were they to put out a "main stream" Flak 30 kit, with proper turn-table and gun-shields. Just saying. I know I would buy 2 or more of those!

Of course, Dragon having tooled the 3.7cm guns for its flak tracks, maybe they'll release a stand-alone of that gun!

Looks to be a nice kit.
Dragon must have seen that the AMMPs Theme for the show in Auburn, In. will be Flak Attack, so they are hopeing to sell more kits....LOL
