I don't mean to be rude but hasn't this already been released before? I've made a Zvezda Ju88G-6 already, so is there something new about this one?

thanks

I was thinking the very same thing. IIRC, it came out several years ago. Could have been the first in their Ju 88 line?
At least the product number seems the same.

Sorry guys, I should have better learn Russian. This boxart was published on Zvezda website on 16th May 2012.

This is the translated description published together with the picture:
Technologies succeed one another, and some models are obsolete losing its appeal. Here came the assorted models 7269 Junkers JU-88G6 and 8042 French elite infantry Voltizhery. Last casting has gone pipelines. In the shops have gone past the box. The once beautiful scale models have the history and rarity.
