Got the latest newsletter from PSM. He announced a conversion for RoG LeFlaSys kit, turning the BF/UF version into a Wiesel 2 Sanitätstrupp MEDEVAC. Finally a reason to get the RoG kit.
More details when they are available from PSM website.
Cheers

Great news thank you, I was wondering why no conversions were available for the Revell Wiesel 2 kits.

Looking forward to the pics, to see if I order one or not.

Cheers,

Christophe

Looks nice, with full interior as well. Definitely on my "to buy" list.

Cheers,

This, to me, begs the question, which other versions will be done? I vote for the mortar variant, please! Not that I need more kits.... But then....

Thank you PSM for working on this interesting little vehicle.

This looks nice.
From the first look at the photos I'm wondering if only the BF/UF version can be used as base or just any Wiesel2?
I hope any one will do since the BF/UF is not available as a separate kit but only included in the set of three Wiesels.


Judging from this photo any Revell Wiesel 2 should be OK?




Cheers,

Christophe

As for the mortar version, you can only build one of the prototypes, The real Mörserkampfsystem Wiesel 2 is still under trials. rumors say that there are "some" software problems.

I agree here, seems that you need only the suspension parts, wheels and tracks. So you can go with the Ozelot kit.

With AFV Club set to re-release their two Wiesels with new updated idlers, tracks and other details, Wiesel fans are in for a good time.

We already have five different versions in plastic, and now one more in resin.

It would be nice to have conversions for the Wiesel 1-based recon version (Aufklärungspanzer) and the driver trainer for something really out-of-the-ordinary:-)

Nice little thing ... Medic vehicles are always something out of the ordinary due to their markings, would perfectly supplement a big Leo 2 or M1A2 V2 ...

Cheers
