Well Bish I have to agree with everybody else and add that I never thought I would wee this one as a plastic kit. Te Toldi is interesting as well as this could easily be converted to either Finnish,Swedish (I think), I'm almost sure this is based ina vickers design that was sold overseas in which case I could use it as an Irish vehicle. 

Thanks for the link Bish.

Terry.

Bish,

I usually wait a while to pick up kits instead of buying them right at release. I've got a healthy stash of 70+ kits so I'm never in a hurry to get the latest and greatest. I will wait to see a review or two before I commit but it is definitely nice (I agree with Eric) to see some of the lesser known Axis gear get attention.

Wow, now there's a subject that I never thought would EVER see the light of day as a styrene kit.

Does that mean we will be seeing you build one soon after it comes out. I will get it as soon as it hits the shelves, but it will have to sit on my shelf for a couple of years before i can build it. And would be nice to see one on here.

And yes, i never thought it would see the light of plastic myself.

The Austrian Mulus was of similar design but a diminutive precursor to the Saurer RR7 -- which was redesignated the SdKfz 254 in German service.  Some records point to 140 of these made.

Was that a pre or post war vehicle.

The photo i have, just dug it out now, shows a vehicle in Africa have a puncture fixed. The caption says it was very prone to breaking down. I have a dio idea already, and i don't have the kit yet.

Been waiting for this one myself.  I have seen the Austrian army version in a picture, was an open-air affair with a flat bed on the rear, was called Mulus.
