Looks like these two are going to see a lot of work before the new ones come out!Heislerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16825061407797980077noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4410167761570537191.post-89977114613096230222017-04-05T06:56:33.896-06:002017-04-05T06:56:33.896-06:00It's mostly not visible because of the schurze...It's mostly not visible because of the schurzen. I did not know that Rubicon is going to redo the Panzer IV. I look forward to see the new version.Laffehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09125733864107467243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4410167761570537191.post-68671758728804998982017-04-05T06:22:10.078-06:002017-04-05T06:22:10.078-06:00I was wondering about that air filter, I just don&...I was wondering about that air filter, I just don't remember seeing it on any of the pictures that come to mind.<br /><br />Of course was I posted this out on LAF and TMP people pointed out that the Rubicon kit is or has been retired and will be going through a replacement that will allow a build form D - J there hasn't been a decision on whether that will be two kits or one kit but I would bet on two. I added some notes at the beginning of this post with a link to the Rubicon forum where the discussion is going on.Heislerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16825061407797980077noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4410167761570537191.post-72985819413901299662017-04-05T04:02:59.907-06:002017-04-05T04:02:59.907-06:00Nice review and summary.

However I can't stand the Rubicon shürtzen so I will go for Warlord for the late war stuff. Also, I think the Rubicon hull is better suited for early/mid war tanks.<br /><br />Lastly, that air filter were only mounted on ausf H vehicles (some debate on it being present on very late G's) between may '43 and february '44. Of course, they were still in place after that on vehicles produced during the period.Laffehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09125733864107467243noreply@blogger.com
