Cyber-Hobby is bringing us another Orange box combination, this set will be great for that Normandy counter-attack.
Orange Box releases have brought together great combinations for modelers at great prices, well Cyber-Hobby has announced another. The Jagdpanzer IV L/48 with the Kamfgruppe von Luck figure set. While this looks to be the older Dragon Jagdpanzer IV kit, I know from personal experience it builds up into a nice looking tank, and Cyber-Hobby will include the newer DS Tracks and marking for both fronts.

9145 – Jagdpanzer IV L/48 + “Kampfgruppe von Luck” Normandy 1944 (Orange)

According to Dragon Models USA this set should be expected in June 2013.

Well, I think this is a great orange box offering. In my opinion,the figure set included is one of the finest figure sets ever from Dragon. I absolutely love the mix water-tan/splinter patterns and zeltbahn. These were used ALL the time after 43 yet,very few kits include them. This is also my favorite Volstad art. I think I've bought 5 sets over the years, lol.

Bit cheap from Dragon to put DS tracks in that one, "Magic Tracks" would have been better value. It's a moot point for me as I got the older kit anyway. If I buy another one it will be an all new tool "Smart Kit", but I see the value for those that don't own the old kit already. Cheers, Christophe

Alternatively look out for the Revell reboxing of the original, which usually goes quite cheaply on Ebay etc. For example http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Revell-1-35-Jagdpanzer-IV-Ausf-F-early-Kit-No-03024-NEW-see-description-/281093623462?_trksid=p2047675.m1850&_trkparms=aid%3D222002%26algo%3DSIC.FIT%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D11%26meid%3D7118663186054498934%26pid%3D100011%26prg%3D1005%26rk%3D1%26sd%3D281079754372%26 To me the lack of Magic Tracks in this release is a big minus, as its one of the main reasons I'd buy a Orange Box kit.
