It looks like the first Bedford in the series coming from IBG Models is now available, and we have some sprue shots.

Hi Kevin,

Glad to see this one finally coming into production. Hopefully it will be a pretty good kit and make the Bedford available to all.

Cheers

Al

Looks interesting but I am not a fan of 'all in one' molded canvas covers, sides and tie downs. This might simplify construction but adds work for those who want to leave the canvas top off?

Nice to see trucks like this coming out ................but where's the clear plastic headlights?

Why couldn't they have moulded them in clear? Would have been much better.

Dear IBG Staff,
What a great news!
Now I have to explain my beloved one that in this case I do not purchase this model because " the box art and the reviews are outstanding", but I will realy start (and finish) the construction.
Serious: it looks great and will certainly form a new start of a long list of discussions on this forum. Looking forward to see it in front of me.
Hopefully, the Archer's staff is already preparing a large range of alternatives for the decals.

Open & closed bodies, bonus!
easier to finish some Max/Airfix/Italeri Portee QL conversions then?
