With the 're-invention' of 1/48th scale for Armor modelers, the new releases will undoubtedly benefit the Aviation modeler as more and more 'dual-purpose' subjects get covered. Here's another one, this time from Mig Productions.

This is a vehicle that was widely-used by the USAAF/USAF in the 40s and 50s:

MP48-065: 1/48th Scale U.S. 3/4 Ton Dodge WC 51 (52 €uros)

The kit includes photo-etched brass without connectors. With this new technology the modeler will not need to perform the tedious task of carefully cutting the brass parts from the frame. The modeler simply needs to peel the brass pieces from an adhesive backing as they are needed. Peeling the fragile etched pieces from the adhesive backing will reduce time needed for cleaning while decreasing damage to the parts more then if the modeler were required to cut them away like with conventional photo-etched sets.Wire is also included for further detailing. Decals are not included.

As always, our thanks to Mig & Adam at Mig Productions for both the details and images of these new releases.
