Flydutch46 - I was thinking the same thing! I thing a Humber in 1/35 from Tamiya would be a lot easier to build than the Bronco kit....

Another 1/48 offering - excellent! Thanks to Tamiya; I wish more companies would offer new-tool quarterscale models.

How about a 1/35 scale Daimler and I'm not talking about the dingo.

Be nice to see this in 1/35th. Strange that they release it in 1/48th but not 1/35th with the latter being the more popular size. As Duncan says it'd be a more enjoyable build than the Bronco one as Tamiyas would be a nice straightforward build. A Daimler would be fantastic as it's my favourite British armoured car. I do wonder sometimes about Tamiyas decisions as to what to release as it doesn't look as if a lot of thought goes into it of late.

As is the Staghound. However, the Bronco Staghounds are IMO, considerably better and deserve the effort.

If I can join the voices of dissent for a second, why not 1/56th?

I'm only half-joking by the way.....

In my opinion, 1/48 armor has it's own unique charm. I would love to see more support of this scale from Tamiya and from other companies. They take up less room yet you can still put a large amount of detail in them.

Bronco's Staghound was a good build and an excellent kit in 1/35 scale, and I'm looking forward to doing one in 1/48.

Well done Tamiya!
