It's pretty much unanimous that Masterbox Limited are producing some of the most imaginative figure sets on the market. Once again, thanks to the company, we're able to bring you a Preview of a work in Process - Secret Item # 3538 on their website.
Previously, Masterbox have limited their releases to some AFV kits and an increasingly large range of figure sets - all of the recent releases come as an 'instant diorama' in a box. Following on from this VERY different way of seeing figure releases, Masterbox is now working on a very different release in 1/35th scale:

3538 - "Somewhere in Europe: 1944-1945.

Initially at least, this looks to contain four figures although, as can be perceived from the images, as the work is very much 'in-progress' there will almost certainly be changes to the final set.

No word (as yet) as to release date.

Grateful thanks to Masterbox Limited for providing these images!

Excellent, I can see so many possibilities with this set. For some reason I see a 'Dolle Dinsdag' diorama in the future... Very good news, thanks Jim. Henk

Civilians - that's what almost every modeller need for his non-combat dio. Master Box has really interesting figures in their growing offer. Outstanding idea for their place on market.

Wow, what a great looking set....so many possibilities!!! I can see that horse and cart featuring in a *lot* of dioramas in years to come, the set certainly has that "last months of the war" feel to it

Another great set. WOW....they are now my favorite plastic figure manufacturer. So many possibilities with this set. Now I'm looking forward to the unveiling of the other 2 secret items(3539/3537) and to see which German motorcycle is done in set #3528

Wow!! A lot of possibilities with this kit!!The details look pretty good and i imagine price wise this set won't cost a fortune, a great alternative to the costly resin figures and horse drawn carts.MB are really striving along!! Thanks for the heads up, Shay
