Good news as the kits are available. Bad news in that his early sales may be low as many people bought from Herr Juckenburg as he retired.

Is that the highly detailed 251 kit that I've seen pics of but can't find?

DAMN IT! Oh well easy come easy go. I'd LOVE to find one of those kits if anyone knows of any.

Thanks Tom.

The implication is that these will be the old Juckenburg kits, but all I know is what it says on the link page. The English is a little odd, so if there is anyone who is fluent in German and can provide a better translation, it would be useful. There will be a 4 to 5 month wait, if they release things at 3 per month.

Here I was congratulating myself on snagging an SU-152 before they were all gone for good! Great news though, his kits were (are!) top-notch and I'm glad they'll continue to be available.

I might have to do that IS-3 after all. :think:

Thanks for the update. I had my eyes on his jagdtiger with the Porsche suspension a really neat piece.
