Olaf:
You may have seen the following message on the 28mm WWII Discussion group on TMP? Tony did a 251/1 D model (and 251/10 D as well).
On August 16 Tony from NZWM made the proposition to do more 1/48th scale vehicles with "Quality and detail as always will be similar to a good quality kitset with nice metals that don't break so easily and for a price around 20GBP or US$40ea"
NZWM put out a limited addition of a 1/48 251/1D, the only version of that vehicle I am aware of. I have added the first pictures of my first two of 3 251/1D I did.
The NZWM 251/1D models were excellent with the resin and metal both crisply done with little flash and almost no holes in the resin. Parts fit like a good plastic model kit.
This vehicle nicely matches the SOLIDO 251/1B die cast vehicle they make (251/7B & 251/20B).
