Flakpanzer IV Kugelblitz, two differnet kits?

Hi all![8D]

I’ve just noticed that there are two kit’s from dragon for the Kugelblitz.
It’s probably been discussed before but I guess my morning call has just arrived.[:p]

Anyone know’s what is the difference between kits:
DRA6040 and DRA6136, besides the boxart?

THANX! ShModeler[:D]

this is just a guess from looking over the blurbs on greatmodels,
but it seems that 6040 included some PE.
its description is: “Rotating turret/ photo-etched/ Hi-tech w/ 483 parts. New tooling”
this kit is discontinued (tho still available)

the description for 6136 says nothing at all other than ‘reissue’.
since they show a retail of almost $36 for 6040 and the newer 6136 is $29,
i am guessing they dropped the PE bits.

ed.

the first Kugelblitz kit suffered from the front hull being too short as on all there other Panzer IVs that Dragon brought out
they brought out the 6040 new tooling that the front was fixed and it do’s have PE in it but not mutch
thats all
