Robert, I believe it is only orderable from SOL Model. You may want to check on further details at its website.

Now, this looks like a deployed military vehicle. All those little accents and details of how vehicles get used in deployment.

Easily crosses over to the Sd.Kfz series of vehicles...as in might get me some for a Famo.

Very nice, but availability may be an issue. Is this one of those "here today, gone tomorrow" resin sets? Also the canvas side curtains make no sense without a top and all the current manufacturers (Dragon and Trumpeter) fail to include even a folded canvas cover.

Hi Bill,
Don't know about the Dragon kit but the Trumpeter kit comes with both a folded and extended cover. I believe this is the Trumpeter kit shown and you can see the folded cover is there though they didn't attach the parts for the frame in this sample.
Regardless, here are a couple shots with the doors fitted but no cover up:

I believe this is a re-release of the NeoGrade set that I was never able to get my hands on.
This is a perfect example of an aftermarket set that makes me want to buy a kit.
