Dodge Trucks revisited.

[airborne]

Rubicon make my year and include these in the Yanks army  please ?  They are in all scales from 1/87th through to the mighty 1/6th But only covered in 1/56th in resin they seem right up your street and need your expertize.  Cheers Geoff.

Would really love some of these

[airborne]

Thanks Elias we can dream for now!

[Pinky]

I'd really like to see some of these too.  Along with their German and British equivalents (i.e. light trucks like the Horch or Steyr, and the Morris).

[ultravanillasmurf]

I agree with Pinky, though I do keep being diverted by Rubicon's shiny tanks ^___^.

[Rubicon Models]

With the Willys MB almost completed and ready for mould making, we are
looking into doing another truck as a side project to go along with the main
ones.  Still have not decided on which one to do - many we don't have any
reference material... 

Being a side project, it will take much longer time to complete, and even
longer to get it to mould making.  Top on the list (with no specific order)
include:

1) Kubelwagen Type 82
2) Schwimmwagen Type 166
3) 6x4 Krupp Protze (Kfz 69/70)
4) Horch Type 1a
5) Steyr Type 100A/01
6) M3 White Scout Car
7) 4x4 Ford GPA
8 ) GMC DUKW
9) 4x4 Dodge WC51
10) 6x6 Dodge  WC62
11) 4x2 Morris 15CWT
12) 4x2 Austin Tilly
13) 1.5t GAZ-AA/GAZ-AAA

Please feel free to comment...

Wow , all great ideas for future kits . I'll take one of each please  . Which ever you produce I'm sure that the kits will be as awesome as the ones you've released so far .   Top of my list would be the Kubel .

[airborne]

I will be right behind Ripley in the queue. Can't wait to see some of these listings. A DUKW, Ford GPA, Dodge WC51 and W62 would be right up my street. Am still interested in the Axis as well, but the Yanks would make my year's wish. Thank you.

[Pinky]

Great list - it's hard to pick one.  I feel that a Horch or Steyr would be very popular.  A Kubelwagen seems like a natural compliment to the Jeep. And a Dodge and a Morris would be well received too (a British truck makes sense with all the British armour kits being released by WL).  Overall, I think I'd go for the Scout Car or a Horch/Steyr.

[ultravanillasmurf]

Besides wheels, is there much (model) commonality between the kubelwagen and the schwimmwagen?

A Kubelwagen would be nice,  a schwimmwagen does appeal.

As Pinky mentions, the Tilly and the fifteen hundredweight would be good with the British tanks currently available.

[Rubicon Models]

Now you can see our problem with so many choices... all good ones too!  Hahaha!

Need to start one soon! 

[johan]

I would start with a British one. For the Germans you already have the Opel Blitz, for the Americans the GMC and for the Russians the Studebaker.

[H0ffmn]

That sounds fair to me.

[LordWolfman]

That sounds fair to me.

Not only fair - sounds quite good!

And after that: 6) M3 White Scout Car  --  widely used from several armies! And I have something to forget the 1/35 Italerie and 1/72 Esci Scout Car 

[airborne]

Yes I really want the Yanks, so the M3 Scout car is a good choice as a multi used machine. Still with that listing, I`ll wait the menu is great."Just let em role".
