Hallo, Leopard friends,

Modellbau-König in Germany exclusively offers a Leopard 1 A4 in scale 1:35 in limited production ( stark limitiert ) probably still this year.

http://www.modellbau-koenig.de/Militaermodellbau_135/Panzer/Panzerfahrzeuge_-_ab_1945/Kampfpanzer/Leopard_1_A4__i13_32973_0.htm

It seems that it is a personal initiative in cooperation with Italeri. See Italeri's logo on bottom right of the box.

Nothing further is known but facing the price there may be no change of the former Italeri kit.

Harald

I suspect it will be the re-boxed Italeri Leopard 1A4.

That should make some Leopard 1 fans very happy.

That's exactly what it is. It's listed at 19.95 Euro (about $23 USD). I'll get it. I bought the Testors boxed kit about 30 years ago.

PSM announced an "Early Batch Leopard I" using resin and the Italeri kit too- those old molds are getting a work out
