Hey Rubicon, when can we expect to get our hands on these Q2 kits?
I would like to have 1 Maultier built to tow a Nebelwerfer and 2 sdkfz 250/9 built for a big game in 5 weeks.
Cheers

I added a rough Daimler-Benz pattern of zimmerit to my 3 Rubicon panthers last year.
For this i used a thin application of Milliput.

This method is not really ideal if doing the finer MNH style patten on Panthers or the normal waffle pattern on Stugs etc.

Good news that the 250/9 is finally coming out. I have a need for several of these beauties.
I am also thinking about using the Ausf.B turret onto the Warlord Puma kit to make a 234/1.

I have a 1/6 scale sdkfz 250/9 ausf.A (Alte) that i am detailing and coverting to RC.
This will also be painted in the same Panzer Lehr sceme that ive been doing my recent Rubicon kits.

I built one of the Warlord Kettenkrads last year but it is not great.
Really looking forward to getting the Rubicon model soon.

Hi, Can you please make the gun barels slightly overscale to be less fragile for gaming.
These normally are the first things to break and can be a pain to repair.

Overall, this looks to be another superb offering and a world apart from others on the market.

WOW.
That looks superb.
At least 400% better than the crappy resin one i have now.

Superb addition to the range.

Any idea when this is likely to be scheduled into the production?

Definatly up for one of these as a tow for my flak88 and another as a quad flakwaggon.

i would love to get 3 or 4 Comets from Rubicon.
I have just collected a 1/6 scale Armortek Comet, and this is my current favourite Brit tank

I got quite excited when i heard that Warlord was doing one, then realised they doing it in resin & metal so i will not buy it.

Hoping that Rubicon can do one in Plastic.

Cheers

I am only wanting to buy at this time 4 x panzer IV ausf J as this will fill an immediate gap in my collection.

I don't do anything earlier than 1944 currently, but that could change.

I am desperately waiting for the sdkfz 250/9 kit as well, although i did pick up a 251/3 and a 250/1 last weekend.
