Italeri has announced three new kits of vehicles and figures at 1/72. All WWI subjects, they are aimed also to wargamers.
The first one is an Italian 90/53 Anti aircraft gun with crew, one gun with eight Italian figures. Alike the famous German Flak 36,it was successfully used also as an anti tank weapon.

DAK infantry set, 48 figures in different combat positions. There are 3 identical sprues, each one with 16 soldiers.

Willys Jeep1/4 Ton 4X4, the famous American vehicle. The box contains parts for building 2 Jeeps.

Although only the Willys is marketed as "fast build", the other two are pretty simple as well, with the gun having 15 parts and the figures only one as usual at this scale.

The Jeeps are not exactly my cup of tea but they could indeed make for a relaxing weekend build. Especially since you get two of them in one box. ETA: Just realized this is a rebox of the 2007 release with added decals.

Man, those 1/72 jeeps must be tiny. I did a 1/72 HMMWV for a review many years ago and it was really small. A jeep is even smaller. Way too small for my big hands. I'll stick with 1/35.

Hi Gino.There are 9 parts for each Jeep kit, and five of them are wheels. I do not think it is a problem for your hands.... but guess you need a 000 brush :-D

I would probably need a 10 "O" brush. I'll still stay with 1/35.

I hope the figures are molded in hard plastic; I find the soft stuff usually found in 1/72 to be difficult to work with.
