Those are some fancy wheels. I like how that looks. There is a lot of style in the vehicles from the '30s.

I second that, would make a great diorama vehicle.

Send a request to Roden. I've been asking them since the first bus release.

I agree

It would be great a series of public transport vehicles in 35 scale, they would be incredibly useful to build dioramas

Think for exemple to a Berlin or a Stalingrad tram. Or to an English double decker bus in 35 scale...

I agree, it would be awesome to see in 1/35th, but I do build braille every now and then and Roden looks like they definitely have some unique kits. I see in their "in process" section they also have an Opel Aero bus which looks very stylish as well. I like their box art - reminds me of the old Matchbox ones for some reason. The Opel Blitz one is fun - getting a couple of feet of air trying to outrun a fighter.

Their aircraft kits look pretty cool too - any ideas on sprue quality?

Roden sent me a review sample and Damian Rigby (AussieReg) has it in hand at this time.
