PlusModel, of the Czech Republic, have just announced the release of three new Armor sets - a complete kit and two update/conversion sets in 1/35th scale.
Beginning with the Complete Kit first, the choice is a subject which has never (to my knowledge) been produced in 1/35th scale -

239: GAZ 61-73 4x4 ($72.90/€59.30)



The kit consists of 36 resin parts and the appropriate PE.

The next two releases are both conversion sets:

240 - German medium snow plow type K ($25.20/€20.50)



This consists of 28 resin parts and PE. This would be equally applicable for the Opel Blitz or (going a bit Hollywood) adding to the front of an Opel Blitz PostBus to do your very own 'Where Eagles Dare' diorama...

The final release, is a VERY common fitting which (again) seems to have been pretty much ignored by the AM manufacturers:

246 - (REAR)Pannier with cargo for Jeep ($9.70/€7.90)

Thanks Jim, That GAZ is a very unique subject, but it seems to be riding very high on the suspension. Where they really like that? Is that due to the 4x4 suspension? Rudi

I was checking my references and yes, it seems as if it rode pretty high on it's chassis. Could have been deliberate to give a higher clearance for snow and mud...Jim
