A captured T-34 with German modifications is on the way from Dragon Models in an updated kit.

Thanks for the info. Correct spelling is "Rommelkiste" though, with a "e" at the end.

Cheers,

Christophe

I hope they've corrected the build/fit problems which spoiled the Cyberhobby T-34 STZ model 1942.

WOW.................They are really running out of ideas aren't they? Take a kit, add decals, new PE, MT, and a stowage bin.................Bingo, instant "new kit". They would really hit a "home run" if they did some early or between the wars US Armor or some W.W.I subjects. How about a British W.W.I Tank with tank crew and infantry...........Now that, would be innovative and very lucrative. I have not purchased a new kit in almost 5 years, but I would buy that for sure.

if is the same 6388 white box, have the same errors... I think the "new parts" is only the storage bin, the problem with this kit is because the hull have overzise. How is usual Dragon include one "fantasy" camo (the original is different).

Do you think that they would reissue a kit that doesn't fit? I sure hope not.

Perhaps it's time for Dragon and the others to listen to the buyers, no? Repeat, add, tune, et al. All that equals is the same old kit with a new sprue? Pfft.

I'd really like to know which company is going to step up to the plate and get serious with WWI. Granted, we do have some really fine French equipment now...but...it's time for the Marks and A7V's to get a remake.

No, please, let Bronco and the others continue with what they re doing (brilliantly) and please, please, allow DML to avoid these areas - they really aren't that clever with these subjects ....
