MasterBox has released news of three new products coming to market early next year in 1/35th scale. This time around we are offered a Tourenwagen with crew, a choice of six figures to be used as desired. The trench fighting continues with the second offering in this series and lastly a very nice looking set of WW2 German Paratroopers.
1) 35113 “German military car, Type 170V, Tourenwagen with crew, WW II era” – the kit includes the set of parts for the assembly of the military version of civil vehicle Mercedes-Benz 170V adapted for requirements of the Wehrmacht and of parts for the assembly of 6 figures of German military men. The figures are created so that the modeller has the opportunity to create a scene with story and mood characteristic only of this scene by choosing a certain group of the figures. For example, the story of the scene can be either a business trip of the group of military men, or plain flirtation of ranking officer with his female subordinate depending upon what figure of the officer is chosen.

We would like to emphasize especially that the figures not used during creation of the diorama can be used for creation of any other dioramas without difficulties and they interact with models of techniques of other manufacturers well.

2) 35116 “Hand-to-hand fight, German & British infantrymen, WW I era” – the kit continues the series of the kits started by us that are devoted to the events of WW I and it shows dramatic events of the period of so-called Trench warfare on the Western Front in 1916-1917. The kit consists of the parts allowing assembling of the model of the trench of that period and of the parts for the assembling of 5 figures: three figures are German infantrymen that are attacking and two figures are British infantrymen defending their positions. The story of the kit is very dramatic, very dynamic and it allows creating of a very interesting diorama.

We would like to emphasize especially that the kit combines very well with the kits of techniques of other manufacturers that started to appear recently. The figures are distinguished by a very high artistic level of performance, they are animated well and they interact with each other very well.

3) 35145 “German Paratroopers. WW II era” - the kit consists of the parts for the assembly of 4 figures of German Paratroopers of the period of the end of WW II that are in the fight.

I'd very much like to see just that trench section boxed on its own. Perhaps two to a box. I'd buy several lol
