I realised that I have been somewhat remiss in that I have not really covered news releases from resin kit manufacturers and if they fit into the profile of 1/35 scale WWII related then that was just plain wrong of me. So here’s one that’s just been announced and is a damn fine looking kit, and with the NZD now looking a bit healthier against the euro a quite well priced one too for what you get.

AA’s full resin kit of the Humber FWD Light Ambulance ( kit K172 )

 

This 1/35th scale resin and etched brass model kit by David Jane and Derek Hansen depicts one of the most well known British light ambulance vehicles of WW2.

The Humber FWD 8cwt 4×4 Light Ambulance body was produced by Thrupp & Mabely. A total of 1144 were supplied, and could carry 2-stretcher + 3-sitting (or 5-sitting) casualties. These vehicles were used throughout WW2 and early Post War.

The kit is complete with full interior, suspension and engine detail, optional seating/stretcher arrangements, etched brass detail set and comprehensive decals with many unit options.

For those not up with the play we are closing down the retail side of the business to concentrate on the distributing and at the end of 2010 we’re abandoning big city life to go and live in quite, rural New Zealand. So between now and Dec 20 we’ll be clearing a lot of stock with a Christmas Sale

Coming Soon From Dragon Models Tiger I Mid-Production ( Jan ’44 ), Command Version

Pz.Kpfw.VI Ausf.E Tiger I MID Command Version January ’44 Production
Kit Number 6660

Looks like this is going to be released as a Cyber-Hobby kit, whether that’s because there will be the non-command version released through the usual DML label ( usually they do it the other way around ) or because they’re trying to make these collectibles like some of their earlier Tiger kits by limiting the production I don’t know.
