I need about three of them!
The only issue I can see is that they might not provide a firewall inbetween the crew compartment and the engine. I know the Panzer Jagder version doesn't have one, but then again it might have been removed?

Sort of the expected - even obvious - follow-up to that cool R-35 - based Panzerjager! Certainly welcome by me - although I wish I had known this was coming back, oh, perhaps 3 years or so ago, when I un-earthed my very elderly Heller R-35 and started trying to detail it a bit! THAT monster has dragged on for years, now, and is finally coming to conclusion. Timing, they say, is everything
I'll have to get one of these - and then there will be some versions following. Ooooo La La!

Well that was to be expected but nontheless very very welcome. I already set my eye on that beautiful Panzer Jager since Tony's built but a new mold R35 is something I gladly add to my collection. Never had the Heller kit as I Always heard it was a dog. But this release will fit that R35 shaped hole in my stash very well.
