Dragon previously released a 75 mm F: http://www.dragonmodelsusa.com/dmlusa/prodd.asp?pid=DRA6756 Is this simply the same kit with the 105mm from their other StuH kits? Not too much in the way of "new tool". Really just another mix-and-match in new box art.

Surely with a change from 75mm to 105mm the breech parts at least must be different as well as the barrel?

Who cares about when they're going to do their Stug E? The Bronco kit is going be better and cheaper in any situation short of a Dragon R&D miracle.
