FINALLY!! This is outstanding news! I have Vietnam dios that can really use these. Now, the next question, will they follow up with logic, and do the ambulance version as well?

Good question. Maybe they might all so release a better version of the WW2 ambulance. The old Italeri one is way past its prime.

Got to add a P S to this Just checking out E-Bay a seller in the Ukraine all ready has this kit listed. $50.00 plus $12.00 shipping. I'll have to give my locale hobby shop a call.
