Tamiya M42 Duster "Back among the living" Tour

I just saw Tamiya’s venerable M42 Duster listed among LuckyModel’s Aug/Sept Tamiya releases. It’s most likely to be a short tour (as usual), but it’s the only kit of the type out there.

Note that it’s listed as “available” so it’s not in stock yet.

I must have got one of the last ones they had in stock then. Ordered it on Friday, 3 Sep and they shipped it on Saturday.

Oh, I got this kit like four years ago, and they are still available in hobby shops whereI live. I started building the Duster like three years ago, sorry to say not much is happening in this project right now, but this link to my web page should give you a good in-box, so you can see if you really want this kit:

Hope it helps, have a nice day

Thanks Pawel, yeah this one seems to come and go on about a 4-5 year cycle. I haven’t seen it for a while and just noticed it was back. It’s been out of the line-up for quite a while.

I wish Tamiya (or any other reputable company for that matter) would release an accurate and revamped version of the Duster. But I guess were stuck with semmingly more and more paper panzers from '46. Argh![blndfld]
