Hi, All! Check out PMMS 3-13-14 New Kit News or the great MINIART site for no less than THIRTEEN PICS of MINIART's new, upcoming 35162 Pz.Kpfw.III Ausf B kit! It's AMAZING what can be done in plastic if a hobby manufacturer uses CAD, Slide Molding, GOOD RESEARCH and attention to detail, as well as great engineering. This is the first Pz.III Ausf B ever done in plastic, and should prove to be a winner with WWII German Armor fans, and 1/35 armor modellers, in general. Take a look and judge for yourselves- You can count me in on this one!!!

PS- Individual-link track fans should have a field-day with this kit, as even the track-link connecting bolts are molded separately!

Happy for your enthusiasm, though the photos are cribbed from MiniArt's own site.

As much as we love Terry, Armorama's news department is second to none IMO.

Hi! Of course you're right about ARMORAMA- But I did write that the pics could be seen at PMMS OR the great MINIART site, which shows all of their excellent kits. I only meant to draw attention to the latest pics of the new and upcoming MINIART Pz.Kpfw.III Ausf.B... It promises to be a popular kit.

MINIART is fast becoming real competition to the likes of DRAGON, TAMIYA, et al... The only little nit-pick I have with MINIART is that the faces in their figure kits need a little bit of work- They tend to have that generic "thousand-yard stare", but that can be easily remedied with HORNET Head sets...
