Hi Boxer fans,

I had yesterday another close encounter with the GTK Boxer Gruppentransportfahrzeug. I took the measurement of the vehicles antenna rod. The rod is 3,13 meters or 123 inch. Now we only need a good update set for the RoG kit.

Cheers

Hi all,
spotted on Blast Models site the release of a comprehensive update set for RoG Boxer kit. It`s for the AFG A1 version containing a new tooled FLW200 and a module deck with all hatches open.
It`s not cheap with 42 Euros but will improve the kit a lot.

AAAAAAAHHHHH!!!! I just spent last night doing the rear module with the Revell PE set. I wished they would have sold the FLW200 seperate.

Here's the Blast set.. it looks pretty comprehensive. I don't think the price is too much for what you get.

For people living outside the EU, it's sold for about $46.
