Just found this amazing item on AliExpress.
https://a.aliexpress.com/_EIY4mOF

I'm not that well known in German vehicles, but has anyone in here looked at this and possibly tested it??
Have been thinking about the idea of ​​a US taken over Kübelwagen but maybe this could be an option too? Is it even one the Germans used in Frankring/Holland??

Who cares about accuracy or correct time period?! I'm getting one just for the "big torsion treasure chest"!

It's 1/18. And it's real. Some German guy already bought it.

On the box it says 1/16, but I can see it also says 1/18 elsewhere

It looks a bit small and the quality is certainly not super good either. Think I'll keep looking for a Kübelwagen from either Asistam or the old one from Tamiya

I got one, just for schlitz and giggles... if anything the €70 I paid for the upgraded version is not bad, might use it as a donor for another project if I don't like it.

I managed to see one working. It has 4 wheel drive and steering, which is super fun... but the sound is horrible, it plays a super loud blinker sound when turning, and a beep while driving backwards.

Ah, Rad: that is the U.S. required OSHA (Oh-shah: Occupational Safety and Health Administration) backup beeper. Someone may have misunderstood that the regulation applies only to 1:1 vehicles. :haha:
