Yes! Our new kit is something different for us, a 1/35th scale Trans-Antarctic Tractor from the historic 1957 Vivian Fuchs expedition. We are on the production stage of the first batch of resin parts, just waiting for the etch and decal sheets to come in, hopefully by the end of this month! Price TBA.
