Hi Guys
Does anyone know if the upcoming Revell Germany White Scout car, BM-13 rocket releases are just a rehash of the old Italeri/Zvezda/peerless etc molds? Have they got some sort of deal going with those companies? And if so are we going to see RG releasing a bunch of those kits (ie T-34's, JS2 etc) that seem to have the same family tree? Very curious!! If that is the case I would sure like to see them re-release the Preist.

I'd take a wild guess, and say they are re-issues.

I just saw on the VLS website, one of the hot scoops being a 1/35th Sturmtiger from Revell. I checked Revells wesbite, but didnt see anything about it.

I am guessing it is a re-issue of the Italeri kit # 299, which was a very nice kit for it's day. In some reviews people prefered it over the Tamiya kit # 35177.
