Wagon

This is the new WWII HaT supply wagon. It is hard plastic.


While the Germans were working on a mechanized army, they still used thousands of horse drawn wagons.


Like the WWI counterpart, this model fits together perfectly. It has no flash.


The horses are the same ones as the WWI wagon. Again the horses are on the small side, but perfectly usable for late war.



Since this is a pre-production set, expect the production versions to be different. At least a different color, perhaps even different horses. Thanks to HaT for providing this sample. I know I would buy a ton of them just like this, even with small horses and blue plastic!

Hard plastic is good. If they had made this in the soft stuff i cannot imagine how it could be fitted together.

I have had soft plastic wagons, they are not very good much of the time. Italeri Napoleonic set is hard to put together. HaT does make some good soft plastic Napoleonic wagons but I think these are better.

The Horses aren't small

In winter and late war, sometimes German horses did starve. The Stalingrad Wagon Set.

They as said better be in hard or harder plastic,
As we will all be buying a few and then a few more....

Nope, can't buy these yet, they are pre-production and only a select few lucky people have them. HaT may not release them for a while.
