Revell Rosenbauer GFLF Simba 8x8

I have been drooling over this kit since it was new, so definitely following

Bozzer
Yeah, I agree with Martin. This has always been a kit, I wanted to get my hands on. I actually saw the built model, at Bolton IPMS in January. Those tyres are amazing and the vehicle itself, looked almost space-like.

Bozzer
This build excites me 🙂

Bozzer
Excellent progress. How's the interior?

Thank you, Bozzer! Right now, I'm working on the equipment boxes in the back. I didn't start with the cabin. I will post some pictures later

This is becoming very nice!

Bozzer
It most definitely is, a "must have" kit, for me! I can't help but wonder, why it's not been re-released again? I can only assume, it's something to do with the licence?

Martin Oostrom
It has been twice after approximately 10 years. Last one was in 2013….

It's possible to buy this kit from eBay, but it costs round about 150€. I bought the kit produced in the 1980th and the plastic is very fragile and the equipment boxes aren't well detailed and it's not possible to open them fully. Besides that, I love this kit. The overall fitting is good and this kit is well designed. If it is possible to get this kit in a bundle with other kits, it is possible to get it relatively cheap

Looking forward here ...........

Bozzer
Let's hope they release it again, soon? I read an interesting review of this kit, from when it first came out. I'll share it, just incase anyone has missed it?

Bozzer
The dream is real! I actually ordered one!

Qwertzel
Congrats, I definitely will follow your building process
