I would guess 1936 Oh bummer would swore it was earlier than 1938. Well im excited about a couple mentions Meng's Kubkewagon has my attention as does Tamiya's panzer I model kit. Its about time they produced a PZ-1. I just order the Academy Pz-1 with motorcycle and sidecar with crew, as well as Tamiya's mitorcycle w/sidecar and their new MG team. Cant wait. Thanks for video and future releases.

My favorite modeling video, I always end up buying a bigger " piggy bank". Fortunately this time the kits hitting my wish list are kind of late releases and I won't have to break the bank just yet. Its amazing how you keep ahead of the game with so many manufacturers coming out. Thanks and Cheers , Bob in the Colonies

David R Lentz, Columbus, Ohio, USA (Saturday, 3 August, 2024) Years past had Volkswagen issued a distinctly odd-looking automobile model they had marketed as “the Thing” (see Wikipedia “Volkswagen Type 181” (en.wikipedia.-org/wiki/Volkswagen_type_181 ). In hindsight, it rather reminds me of the Volkswagen Type 82 Kübelwagen from the Wehrmacht during the Second World War. Are they essentially the same thing? Or are they different vehicles? If you do not know, please pass along my enquiry. Respond here.

@@TheScaleModeler Thank you for your merry encouragement. I do enjoy researching the details of combat aircraft, primarily those of the USA. I am an aspiring novelist-popular fiction, mind you! I have no pretensions to “literature”!-and essayist (I would like to think that you have seen before you serviceable samples thereof); in the nonfiction area am I decidedly more reluctant, however, as the often difficult issues that I endeavour to examine in my exposition upset me deeply, largely because I live them. My situation, however, deny me the means to build, detail, paint, etc., model kits. These circumstances are why I come to KZitem model-building channels: I take what delight I can (if rather wistful) in watching you channellers reify in polystyrene, resin, adhesives, paints, etc., your imaginations, and your kits. I wish I were wealthy enough to hire at a worthy income a dozen or so (or more!) top-flight model-makers to 1) research, develop, design, build, etc., the various projects I envision-think of a long line of 1:72nd-scale replicas of Boeing’s KC-135 Refueller series assembled airborne, each with a different USAF or USN aircraft queuing behind; a KC-135Q topping off a pair of Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird USAF Surveillance Reconnaissance Aircraft; an EC-135C “Looking Glass” Airborne Command Post (emergency mobile command aircraft; this is the AMT Ertl model kit 8955, itself based upon the tanker, still retaining its equipment) as it services its escort of McDonnell Douglas F-4C Phantom II USAF Fighters (originally with the designation “F-110A”); a KC-135R facilitates a North American-Rockwell B-1B Sentry (Bone) USAF strategic bomber to maintain its tight schedule-and 2) to block time for them to build the kits they have in mind. Related to these, Heller some years past had offered a 1:72nd-scale kit of the Boeing 707-300B TWA Airlines passenger jet (I think a re-boxing of an ESCI model), perhaps re-issuing it again. From this airframe derived 1) the first USAF executive transport expressly for the official use of the President of the United States of America, and 2) Boeing E-3B Airborne Warning and Control System (AWACS) USAF Aircraft. The French Air Force (Armée de l’air) had designated their version as the E-3F (the Heller kit has alternate parts, markings, etc., to make one or the other).

Anyone know why there is 1/35 scale? Seems to me with many aircraft in 1/32....WHY don't the companys consolidate the scales to just 1/32 so you can pose aircraft and vehicals TOGETHER? Still no 1/48 B-47 or C-119, Transall 160 or Boeing 737-400 (short body, fan engined) huh? I know companies would sell a million just B-47's.....

They didn’t think this through at the beginning and now the cost of moving to either 1/35 or 1/32 I would imagine would be immense. Border models do make planes in 1/35 to match the armour. There’s a lot of models missing from various scales and it does get frustrating when they make yet another version of a plane that has been done a 100 times before by 50 companies. But things are changing albeit slowly. Thanks for your feedback 👍
