That will open lots of doors for combining Wingy Thingy's and Armor! Will be interesting to see how much detail is there.

I think Tamiya has spoken and it suggest that they are turning 180 from 1/35 and heading into a new direction. That's a shame for us 1/35 builders, but since I've gone with more Dragon kits of late, the impact might not affect me. On the other hand, it really opens doors for the 1/48 builders who want something to compliment their wingy things.

New 1/48 Tamiya Tiger I and Schwimmwagen

Howdy, folks!Smile [:)]
I’ve just gotten word that Tamiya will be releasing a 1/48 Tiger I (early production) and Pkw.K2 Schwimmwagen at the end of November. The Tiger will be 2,000 yen (about $18.00 USD) and the Schwimmwagen will be 1,000 yen (about $9.00 USD) here in Japan. This news comes to me via my buddies at Panzer Works, who are now doing research for a resin interior for the Tiger.

Great news for all those who have been yearning for some good 1/48 armor.Big Smile [:D]

I’m sure there will be some official announcements from Tamiya soon, so keep your eyes and ears open!Shy [8)]
