I will be ordering this kit this week 🙂 Even though there's no interior included, this vehicle simply looks AWESOME!

I may even actually consider buying the seperate interior kit as well (link below).

This kit will not be for me, only because I have the ICM radio truck lol

Yeah, I also have the ICM 35462 Krupp in my stash but I would like to try this IBG one as well 🙂 And I will also be getting the ICM 35467 Henschel communications truck. Gotta have 'em all 😄

Well John, besides that you have more German armory in your stash than the Wehrmacht could field in it's prime time.... 😉
I've got a Bedford from IGB, looks really nice, good quality on the first view.

Hahaha! 😛

The Bedford, yes, that one looks pretty cool indeed! I'm going to add it to my wishlist 👍

I was wondering, have you ever build an IBG kit? Because in virtually all reviews they are talking about the brittle plastic and parts easily breaking? And if you have built one (or more), was it the same in your kits?

I did a quick check on the IBG kits that I have but on first glance it didn't look too brittle to me?

I have not yet built one so I need to have a look at that.

Alright, thanks 🙂 Maybe I'll go ahead and put a few subassemblies together tonight and see how it goes 🙂

Atually speaking of trucks the AFV Bussing Nag with Bilstein crane looks pretty cool! 🙂

Absolutely agree!! It looks like a nicely detailed kit, as always with AFV Club 🙂 The moment I saw it, it went straight to my wishlist! 👍

IBG has the Einheitsdiesel with Bilstein crane as well of course but the AFV Club looks more interesting (to me anyway). At some point I will be getting the IBG as well though 😉

The new Bronco and Mirror Models British Morris C8 trucks are of great interest as well btw. After last year's Mirror Models plastic kit of the FAT (#35122), these up and coming versions by Bronco and Mirror Models are very much welcomed. Now we finally have some proper choices of (plastic) kits to tow our British 17Pdr and 24Pdr guns 🙂

These are great times we live in! 😄 👍
