I don't know if anyone has seen this yet, but someone posted it over at Track-link.net.

Its a real neat article with lots of pics of this "detail set" for other Pz IVs, like from DML or Tamiya.

Holy cow. But I have to admit, that with Tristar releasing a D, and Dragon kicking in new Pz IV's as well... I'm not sure how relevant this is. For the J and H kits, maybe. But how long before Dragon or someone makes those, as well?

It's still good for older stuff and it's hard to say if dragon actually intends on remaking some of their older stuff. I wouldn't be surprised knowing how they are.

If you look at Dragons website, it appears that they are already planning on doing this on the E. I for one am excited about this, I have a few older pz IV based kits that could use a little tlc upgrade. Plus the workable aspect of Tristar's suspension is definitely a bonus.
