Ahoy mates!

Bronco Models stops by the news room with a very interesting new release that will appeal to both ship and armor builders alike!

Check it out.

Ahh one of the Unicorns of modeling
I know that ADV/Azimut had one of these and Steel Masters magazine has published a very interesting dio with the LandWasserSchlepper
Maybe now, more affordable and easier model will produce nice dioramas for our enjoyment!
Thanks for sharing Kenny

This one works out good for me, combining armor and ships. As Will Smith said "I gotta get me one of these!"

We were sent images of the WIP of the kit back in November. If you haven't seen them, here they are:

Oh, my apologies - I should have posted this News Story here as well - my bad!

Hey Jim,

Do you know if they are offering this kit now? Looks to be a pretty neat subject.

I just wish this sucker was not priced at around $90.00!

I'm a huge fan of 35th scale amtracks, landing craft, etc. and though I am not a huge German armor modeler, I'd love to pick this one up...but at the price they are selling it for, I'd rather buy a couple of kits of subjects that I regularly model...

Who knows, maybe Lucky Models or e-hobbyland will have it cheaper. It sure is a cool looking craft!

Fingers crossed.

Much Aloha,

Johnny B.

The price which is being quoted is the RSP isn the States - so, yes it will be a different price in the Far-Eastern in-line stores...
