Miniart sure is getting a lot of mileage out of these!

Miniart make other “tieflader” (two variants, building contractor and railway maintenance) but those are E400’s and comes with a sheet metal loadbed.

According to scalemates there will also be a bakers van.

I have to nitpick, the first ‘camo’ Sudetendeutsche Export Biere would be more suitable in Prag/Brun etc, not Berlin.

“Sudeten German beer for Berlin citizens, 1938. “As a result of the occupation of the Sudetenland beer from the Egerland is imported to Berlin for the first time since the First World War. The picture shows as barrels with the Egerer beer are loaded at the freight station Potsdam. On the van there is the slogan: ““The Germans drink Sudeten German export beers”” as well as the beer brands ““Egerer Urbraeu””, ““Grosspriesener Urbraeu”” and ““Saazer Urstoff””.”. Date created: 07/10/1938”

Hi
Although all look fab, they fit very well, they have very fiddly engines and trying instructions, and some tiny parts. I love them but they’re delicate, small in nature. Patience is a virtue.
Best fit mirrors and lights last, despite that I’ve still had to replace them.
Markings are IMPECCABLE. 2 coats of softener over a Tamiya semi-gloss, no sign of edges.
Loads of interesting markings. I made the Kastenwagen, the margarine carrier… They’re awesome kits. Beware cab top fit. I also widened the wheel drums by 20 thou., just to make the wheels sit right. I’ve emailed Miniart, they’ve listened to other queries too. Recommended but not for a beginner.

I have most of them, but only purchase them if they are a new “combination” of features. There are two different hoods/grilles (E400/A400), three different van bodies and two different box bodies. This one actually adds a third style of box body. It has a wooden body with side mounted fenders, not done yet on any of the previous 9 kits.

Hi
They’re a superb but tricky build in the engine area. I also spaced the wheels out on the Kastenwagen by 20 thou. Nb Only 1 driver’s side wiper for WW2 ! I’ve informed Miniart too. I kept the trafficators on, NOT cut off per info. Their mistake.
Cheers.
