In from DEF Model, some great looking 1/35 releases, including a very interesting civilian armored car.

Wow, that cooler set is a keeper. I especially like the crushed bottles which would look great as turret top litter.

I agree, the cooler set is really nice. Crushed bottles and a cooler that you can have open with contents in it is fantastic.

I like that cooler set as well. Any ideas on where to pick it up in the states?

Lucky model sells DEF now.
I know they are not in the states but I have never had problems with them, and their shipping is very reasonable.

Aaron and Willey, I had checked LM's site before posting and saw that they didn't carry the cooler set. I wonder why they are carrying the rest of DEF's line but not the coolers.

Hobby Link Japan has it listed as a preorder for August release, with a 5% discount for preorder.

Very cool. Will have to get these for my "what if" civilian freedom fighters Type 74. This would go great with anything to do with rebel/freedom fighters, or anything with civilians.
