You will recall from this news reporters previous exclusive story and update that Bronco Models are releasing their 1/35th German Seehund XXVIIB/B5 Submarine.

The saying goes that “a picture is worth a thousand words” well check this out these newly released mouth watering images of this kitset.

Looking at these images confirms my limited opinion this kitset will not only be a sensational release for the submarine modeller but also the modelling community at large.

Watch this space for updates as and when more information comes to hand.

Hisham, It scales out to be about 13" long. I'm really looking forward to this one. Al

Hi all. Any news concerning the release date?
APR 28, 2010 - 10:01 AM
Off the top of my head, I think (and don't quote me on this) it might be July/August this year...

I like the look of this one and after a browse around their site they have some verry neat kits. The V weaspons could be very useful items and I can see both the mini sub and V bombs having fallen into Allied hands! I wonder if anyone will do an X Craft in 1/35 plastic? Al

Ohh, this one seems to be a big kit. I calculated it to 33cm or nearly one foot. That´s an interesting vehicle! Thanks for this... Soeren

Hi Guys, Yes this is a realy nice kit from Bronco, it all fits perfect noneed to use any putty on the boot. Only the fitting of the extra feul tanksgive a small filling problem. But there is a real problem when looking at the torpedo's. See my comments that I already did post on the S-100 forum site XXX Thanks for thequick answers but today I found this web side LINK with the colours setting for four differend G7 types It shows 4 types of the G7 and diferend colours The first one looks like the S-100 type But the second and third like the Seehund S7 with the diferend rudder layout. Difereance between S-100 and Sehund Orginal G7-a 7.163 mtr x 53.3 cm Italery S-100 20.5mm x 15.0 mm 20.5x35 = 717.5 = Original 7.163 mtr in lenght correct 15.0x35 = 52.5 = Original 53.3 cm in widht corect Bronco G7e t3 Seehund 21,6 mm x 17,4 mm 21.6x35 = 756 = 7.56 mtr 17.4x35 = 60.9 cm As far as I can find the measurement of all types of the G7 are standard this would mean that the Bronco torpedo is incorrect in its measurements. Greetings Bert
