Judging from the info on Trumpeter's website, their 1/35 C-1 Ariete model has been released. And it looks really good! Well, maybe except for decals, which seem rather poor. And text mentions brass wire for towing cable, while picture shows a length of white twine. By the way - note on photos of finished model that the cable was not attached, but cable ends are in place :-)

I'll check the LHS's here in Osaka and see what I can find!
Thanks for the heads up!

Is that the same hull the Oto-Melara 76mm SPAAG is based on?

Outstanding I have two on backorder!Cant wait to get them.look real nice!!!!!

I'll get Trumpeter Ariete C1. I know Trumpeter sometimes lists Tamiya paints. My town sells only Tamiya, MM, Humbrol (some colors aren't available), Vallejo, Testors and Pollys. What color is the best for Ariete C1? I prefer Humbrol, but can use other brands except Tamiya. Please, let me know. Thanks.
