Interesting that Dragon would go and release this 2cm Flak 38 kit. I wonder if this is one of the new "secret" releases announced on the MDFC armor club forum ? Could this be one of the "Happy Holidays" kits
Regardless, I'm sure this will be yet another excellent kit from Dragon, and that Luftwaffe Flak Artillerie crew depicted on the Ron Volstad box art has my interest peaked !
Just thought I'd pass this word (and image) along to my fellow Armorama members.
Cheers !!
