Carrying on with Rowan''s good news for Luftwaffe WWII modellers, Italeri have announced news of the future release of a JU -87 B2 Stuka. This appears to be a new tooling and not a rehash of the Hasegawa kit as was rumoured. On their website are images of the sprue''s and possible markings. Italeri will also include a Junkers Jumo engine with the kit, which is an added bonus for the super detailers. Sprue''s look very promising from the photos, but I will leave you Luftwaffe experten to make up your own minds.

Hopefully this will retail for less than the Hasegawa kit, too. The transparencies look very nice and the wheels seem to be "weighted." Too bad the dive brakes were moulded separately, though.
