Looking at the kit features in the second image at PMMS it looks a lot like something that Meng Models might have come up with.  Wonder if there is an actual link or is this just a coincidence?

Thanks Jeff - PMMS has a bigger picture: http://www.perthmilitarymodelling.com/newkitnews/diopark.html The indestructible Nokia phone is a nice touch.

Like the trucks, don't give two figs for the rockets etc., I wonder if they'll release the trucks by
themselves w/out the splodo crap.

Are those Bongo trucks? Great to have them in 1/35, because you can't have a Middle Eastern based fisticuffs without one in the background!

The tan UB-32 version can probably be built without the rockets. Hopefully they'll include all the transparencies, so the rear window grill can be replaced with clear plastic.

Bigger than the Kia. The kit is a de-badged Mitsubishi Fuso Canter (3.5 T, I think).

Love the box art work.  Workshop setting with live ordnance on the floor and sparks/high voltage (welder) near by.  All the basic ingredients for an "ooooopsie"  :)

LH/RH drive options! How cool is that! This option should be standard for all cars/trucks! 8)

But they're not fused, so it's OK... and it's perfectly OK to get dirt and grime into all the delicate rocket parts.
