Although they have been low key recently Masterbox still continue to churn out new kits that will keep
modellers at their desks through a long cold northern winter (or summer if you
are on the other end) - three new kits for November release…
Masterbox new products for November 2014
"The Price of War" European Civilian 1944-1945
Inc. Bicycle and Photo
etched Parts
# 35176
SCALE: 1/35th
The kit consists of 2 sprues and one plate with photo-etched
parts. It builds to a model of an elderly European man that is trying to get
out of territories destroyed by the war and into a safer place by means of the
bicycle. This plastic kit and photo-etched parts allows for the assembling of a
museum level, super detailed model of a civilian man’s bicycle.
The figure of the old man is well animated and the
collection of different kind of bags, suitcases and other items lends to the
tragic atmosphere of those days. The kit can be part of an independent
mini-diorama or it can become the part of larger diorama done with other models
and figures as well.
"Let's Stop Them Here!" German Military Men, 1945
6 Figures Set
#35162
SCALE: 1/35th
The kit consists of 6 figures of German Military Men during
the last days of the WW II. The story of the kit is simple, but tragic in its
way. The unit is preparing to protect a hopeless position. The soldiers of the
unit are assembled in a hurry, not only from different units, but from
different arms of the service.
Their objective is to detain the advance of the enemy by all
means at least for a short while. Despite restrained poses the kit is quite
emotional and the figures interact very well with each other.
"Move, Move, Move!!!" U.S. Soldiers, Operation Overlord
Period, 1944
7 Figures Set
#35130
SCALE: 1:35
This kit consists of 2 sprues with parts to assemble 7
figures of WWII era US military men.
Five figures represent US soldiers moving by running under
enemy fire. Two figures represent US machine-gunners firing and covering the
fast movement of their comrades. Despite the relative simplicity of the story
the kit looks rather dynamic and it renders drama of the fight well.
Masterbox would like to emphasize that the kit represents a mix of
completely new figures (sprue A) added by a couple of machine-gunners from 3519
"U.S. Machine-gunners" kit (sprue B). The figures interact so well
with each other that the kit can position itself as an absolutely new item.
These kits will be
available through all of Masterbox’s distributors
after November…
