Jeeps/Kubelwagen/Schwimmwagen in 1/18 scale

Hey Guys,

The 21st Cent Jeep is selling for well over $100. I forget the name buy there is another new Jeep out that has a lot more detail that is selling for $100+.

At this price one would have to think twice before they start modifying and expensive model.

So what if you had a resin copy of the 21st ? If you mod that there would be nothing to lose.

So would you guys spend $100+ for a resin copy Jeep with a modification ?

well both Solido and Gates make 1/18 jeeps and they are still fairly easy to find for well under $100.

The Kubel might be a better thing to copy.

Not for a Jeep, but how about the amphibious Seep?

If guys want you to make a Jeep, how about an armored Jeep or a SAS desert Jeep?

My 2 cents.

TTT

Any more thoughts on the Kuble ? I am not sure if their were a lot of variants on that,

Does anybody make a Shwimwagon ( spell ? ) in 1 /18 th ?

Any interest in that ?

As far as the Jeep goes I was thinking of the gun shield with the twin bazookas.

And the SAS. Of course you have the fallow me Jeeps as well as the rail road jeep.

A Schwimmwagen would be a great choice, of course you have to make sure enough people were on board for it, I'm hoping you can get to the 251 mod first

, that is one I will have to have

I'd be interested in a 1:18 Schwimmwagen, I think that would be cool.

I'd be up for the Kubel or the Jeep, closest I've come to a good jeep is the PTE Mutt.

I'd just want a plain jane one with a .30cal or maybe an SAS one.

Schwimmwagen would be interesting to me... Ihave a jeep and a Kubel, and I know not everyone does, but it's not like they don't exist in one way or another... A Schwimmwagen is only in 1/16 so I'd be much more interested in small stuff if it's new.

I would be totally in for a Schwimmwagen. That is one of those smaller German vehicles I have wished for in 1:18 for a long time.

Matthew, if were you I would take down my email address. The roving bots will grab it and spam the heck out of your account.
