Hey Folks

A new 1/24 Bedford plastic kit in two versions from a company called Emhar price 45,99 EUR

http://www.moduni.de/product_info.php/manufacturers_id/970520/products_id/6042401

Bedford O-Type. This is an injection moulded kit with over 250 parts including rubber tyres. The kit will be available as either a LWB Dropside Truck (British Railways) version shown in the illustration, or as a high body SWB Tipper.

Sounds very nice and reasonable priced too at about 23 pounds.

MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMm

Can't wait to see.

Sounds good. Let's hope it's from a reasonable quality. Emhar kits are not always good quality. Than again if it's a whole new kit you can aspect it fits modern standards.
And it's a good thing they dare to bring a new kit anyway!!
I've read on de IMPS-UK site it is an injection moulded kit with over 250 parts including rubber tyres. The kit will be available as either a LWB Dropside Truck (British Railways) version or as a high body SWB Tipper.

Let's hope to see some pictures of the kit soon!

OK, now I'm quoting my own posts...

I found some test build pictures of the new Emhar truck on this site !

I like the shorter (tipper?) version a lot!!!
