Anyone order and receive one of these? Is it truly 1:18 die cast?
Cant seem to get replies to email from the website.

I think it is die-cast. There was a thread on this awhile back.

Roger That. I remember the thread, but couldnt remember if anyone
made contact with the company to ensure the scale. Probably only new
armor/vehicle we'll see for awhile :cry:

THX,

If you look at the dimensions, it looks like it could be 1:18.

Edit: I checked my XD kubel and it has the same dimensions.

Thanks! A little expensive but I think I'll order it to fill my vehicle
urge. Hope it is as good as it looks. :lol:

Thanks again,

Hi, minichamps also issued a grey kubelwagen.

I ordered mine today and let you guys knwo if it´s die cast or not. I guess the desert version isn´t out yet but it´s probably based on the same mold as the grey one!
