I wonder if they'll release a Wiesel with the 20mm? Because, you know, that would be....amazing.

Quoted Text

what is "spirit of body detail"


It means the spirits of 1000 Wiesels live in each model young Grasshopper.

Seek not to know the answers, but to understand the model details.

When you can snatch this model kit from a LHS shelf, it will be time for you to build it.

The original kit was a jewel of a model, this should be even better!

The 3 sprues shown look the same as the early release 35014. Vinyl tracks don't look good in such a tiny model........................ be interesting to see the priceing ( my boxing 35014 has a price tag of £24.99 )

To mis-quote our colonial cousins, some 900 days late & several dollars over(priced)?
