W-Model "Smerch" & Something else in 1/35 on the horizon!

Read the Full News Story

If you have comments or questions please post them here.

Thanks!

F.Y.I. These guys are only producing 50 pieces of each kit so if interested order early!

Great to know, thank you for the heads up!

The Smerch certainly is a full kit, its lovely. Assume therefore coastal gun is as well.

The second offering is of equal or greater interest:

I'm sure if you wait a bit, Trumpeter will have these out on the Scud kit at a reasonable price. But if you want it now (and more importantly) build it now....it'd be worth it.

I'm thinking W-Models should start doing "conversion" kits rather than full vehicles. There are so many variants built on the 543 chassis that the possibilities are almost endless.

Hi Guys;

THIS MAKES MY MOUTH WATER !!!! But the only thing I have too ask is; Who Can Afford It, the Level of Detail is outstanding and the Quality of Materials is Top Notch !
And Yes I can see that maybe it could be Built in injection molded plastic, but again it would be Expensive.
IMHO I just Don't Think the Average Modeler is going too be able too afford it, let alone have enough room too Display them. Will Trumpeter or Meng have enough Interest in Producing these Beasts ! Time Will Tell ???

CHEERS; MIKE.

I agree. Way too expensive for the main stream modeler. But then these kits do appear to be targeted more towards the extreme special interest modeler.

I have my 'order' in for the Bereg...the kit will be custom made from the molds, and mailed to me, sometime in April. I'm looking at $235 (if I read their site correctly), so, this will be my big buy of the year!

Just received an email from W-Model. They finished the Bereg 1/35th for me which is their last one produced. True to form is was $235. The kit was mailed out of Lithuania on the 19th of May, 2015.

However, if I understand the rest of the email, their 1/35th line of kits has been discontinued and will stay only with 1/72nd kits. If there was a 1/35th kit on your wish list, you might be late...or you can inquire to see what's left in their 1/35th inventory.

Isn't this Smerch the same one Trumpeter is doing?

If so, I hope Trumpeter ventures and does the Bereg, also

Just give me a year for the resin to cool on my Bereg before Trumpy comes out with one in plastic!

Even if they do it, I don't think it'll be anytime soon

Hi Guys;

Yea ! I can see Trumpeter coming out with the Bereg in A couple of Years, and maybe if I save enough Pocket Change I can Afford it. And another System I can see them trying to make is the Coastal Missile System in the Twin Launcher.

CHEERS; MIKE.

Funny when we think releases will come in a couple of years, and as soon as you say that, bang!...it's revealed in a week's time... Thanx for predicting the Bereg Hisham! Now its coming sooner than we think!!

Oh, well now I feel guilty

W-Models has confirmed to me that their 1/35th line of kits has been discontinued...quoting the line as "unsuccessful" (price?). Keep in mind W-Models has NOT gone out of business, just doing 1/72nd kits from now on.

As luck would have it...looks like Trumpy is releasing a Bereg.
