Bronco Models has announced an Italian staff car in the works which should attract some attention and it is the DAK “Topolino” (German/Italian) Light Staff car with crew and IF8 Infantry Cart.
Bronco Models it would seem wants a slice of the soft skin pie and following on the release of their JEEP kits they have turned their attention to the African Campaign or WW2 and the Germans and Italians. As Jim Starkweather would say this has a very long title which is DAK “Topolino” (German/Italian) Light Staff car with crew and IF8 Infantry Cart and while long in name it is good to see Bronco Models still providing figures with a number of their kits. I wonder if we get a tortoise in the box as well?

Over on PMMS is a more complete inventory of Bronco's latest releases: in addition to the car is a German GLIDER ( the type used to bust out Mussolini) which includes a set of Dragon Fallschirmjager; and a set of British APFU war correspondents and photographers. For my money, Bronco has really out-done themselves as well as all the other model manufacturers with their promised releases, not to mention their quality which is also top-notch.

Finally, a good Topolino kit in plastic . Looking forward to getting this and, like the others here, hoping that they will include the tortise featured on the box top cover . Cheers ! Kenneth .

Well, no, it ISN'T any more complete at all. The Glider and the War Correspondents were also added to Armorama's News Section. Possibly they were posted later here due to time differences? Doesn't make PMMS any more efficient than the News section here... In fact, the three items were each given their OWN individual News Report - here, releases are seperated into different categories - AFVs, Figures, etc. etc.
