Now Trumpeter, be brave and start releasing some modern French vehicles, VAB, VBL, AMX10P and RC and so on.

They haven't done a T-72 yet but they are working on an Italian vehichle.....That's puzzling indeed!

I hope for an Iveco VM

Djiti's Production said on his Facebook page that he's working on some modern Italian soldiers, so they'll go well with these Trumpeter Pumas (the 4X4 and the 6X6)!

Hi guys, in the laboratory of a friend we have fitted the model of the Puma 4x4 of Trumpeter and we have acclimatized it in Lebanon, at the time of the landing of our contingent to reach the operational area of our competence.
Here is the link to the page on our site where you published the complete photo shoot:

We now expect the version of the Puma 6x6. We hope that not later still a long time ...
Have fun - Gianfranco "The Colonnel"

That's a beautiful looking Puma you got there, Gianfranco!

It's not easy to weather white vehicles, but yours is one of the best I've seen so far.

Thanks for sharing

Hi Hisham,
I'm an Officer of of the Italian Army Tank Corps now in the reserve and I'm a modeller passionate, hobby that I have always cultivated as a boy.
We're a group of modelers and we meet at the shop of one of us to make our models. All our works are done together and each contributes according to their ability. I, ​​for example, am specialized in self-construction and scratch building, while Gian Luca Cocchi - the owner of the shop - is specialized in painting the models. It's he who also painted this Puma; it's very capable because he's a true artist who graduated in Graphic Art, Architecture and Painting.
If you and other modelers need to see two good photographic reportages on Puma 4x4 and 6x6 in service in our country, I invite you to visit their Walkarounds that we have published on our site. Here you are the links:
Puma 4x4: http://www.masterminiatures.it/walk/puma4x4.php
Puma 6x6: http://www.masterminiatures.it/walk/puma-6x6.php
I hope these Photofiles are useful to you to better realize your models.
Best wishes - Gianfranco "Il Colonnello"
