Q4/18 & Q1/19 New Releases - New Unboxing Video 190212

[Tracks]

@Tracks - They are two different 3D models. The rendering is from an off-the-shelf 3d model that we used for box art only.  So don't worry!

That is so good to hear!
I was worried for a moment.
Thank you for responding so quickly!

Is it to late to fix the cover art?
Never mind!.. That would delay the kit's release, and I don't want that to happen.

Nice.
Looking forward to getting my hands on both new plastic kits.

Ohh.

 Lovely, looking forward to making flak versions of the 7.

The Jagdpanther is very welcome.

Does anyone else wonder about the telegraph pole in the front. It looks like it is in the centre of the railway track. I know it happened (though mainly in sidings).

I did not know that "utility pole" was an American catch all term for sticks with stuff on.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Utility_pole

I had always assumed that a Utility Pole was a power distribution pole (with the cylindrical transformer that explodes in a shower of sparks at some point in the film ^__^).

Yes, the Jagdpanther is nice, and I might get one of these plastic kits, even though I do not have a resin Jagdpanther to replace. However, I welcome the SdKfz 2 and SdKfz 7 plastic model kits.

I just wish there was an SdKfz 10 kit in plastic from Rubicon Models. The SdKfz 10 (produced and used from 1938 to 1945) was a very important transport vehicle for the German Army. Not to mention all the variants and field modifications it went through. But this is a topic for another thread for another time.

Your right  a 10 would be nice . As it is I'm already falling behind on my kit building ,( GAZ , 250 HT , T-26 , 88 , CMP , Jeep , etc  and I see BA has a plastic Matilda ! )  I can wait till next year to worry about not having a 10 , maybe by then I'll have built a gun for it to tow

[EarlyWarGamer]

In my spare time I am putting together some info and schematics of the Sd.Kfz 10, and when ready, will post it as a Wish List item. Hoping I can help Rubicon with some of the research, and lay out a proposal that catches their eye! I've got several good books on the subject, and hope that I have enough to lay out the construction, major models/changes, along with production numbers, to convince them we need such a vehicle!

One of the things they towed is that nice looking Nebelwerfer coming in 2019! And I like that they have a 20mm quad flak, because the Sd.Kfz towed those as well. And a single barrel Flak was built on to the back deck of certain models (and removable down ramps).

But that is indeed for another thread!

[Jaeger]

The SdKfz 10 towed many things including anti-tank guns, Flak, goulash cannons, howitzers.  The basic platform could be the genesis for many vehicle variants.  Like the T-26 a Sdkfz 10 kit could be many things.
