| Subject: | Fine Molds Type 97 Chi Ha and Jordio Rubio Kfz 13 |  |

If anyone is looking for the new Fine Molds Type 97 Chi Ha or Jordio Rubio Kfz 13 Adler light armored car, M&Models has both kits in stock.
The Type 97 has the 57mm turret on a hull with the late-pattern engine deck, so it represents a later production tank than the Tamiya kit. The turret includes a very well done breech assembly for the 57mm gun and a beautifully molded 'handrail' style antenna.
The JR Adler is a very nicely cast kit. The body is quite thinly cast. As delicate as many parts are, the kit arrived with no damaged parts -- due to quite good packing.
FTR: I have no involvement with M&Models aside from being a satisfied customer.
