Oddly enough, I believe the 1/35 Dana was the first HobbyBoss kit I ever made.............

Oh ere another Large StuG, Santa, SANTA are you listening!!!!!!!!
Questions??
The picture shows thats its got the later pigs/ boars head mantlet, fitted by Alkett October 43 on, but it has the smoke candles, deleted May 43?? Also shown the the later drive sprocket early 1944 on, so a confusing picture??
So I assume it's a different kit to the Das Werk early StuG??
Most important, does it have a full interior Inc engine bay, please, please!!

If it is Hobby Boss then I fear that it will be OK but not great. And without the interior . They are, in my opinion, the low end versions. I think of Hobby Boss as 1970's Tamiya. Good from a distance at first glance. Close examination and you start seeing bits that are not there, bits that are, but shouldn't be and things that are wrong and badly done.
Thats my fear Ian, hope we are wrong. The StuG has always been a popular model and the last yr or so a lot of new kits have arrived, so i would think a large one with full interior would sell well!
You can buy a lot of the interior parts from AFV modeller but not cheap and they are not doing the engine bay. If they did the kit plus 3 d parts would cost about £500 plus
I know, it's sad lol but welcome to the StuG life, now if only i could see the return rollers?Blimmin Eck Bob.......
........ GEEK ALERT !!!!! :smiling3:

Oh goody! another Tiger :rolling:
Along with the Tiger - an upgrade for the new model
and as for the Tiger, upgrade add-ons - 2 this time
Looks like RFM are trying to put the aftermarket makers out of business

A Variant on the Mk.I - I have read various posts on the 'net, that the ICM Beaufort is the best selling kit of the year - don't know how anyone can prove that, but it does seem popular!
