Bunker Talk: Old Roco Kubelwagen

Saturday, March 8, 2025

Roco Minitanks 235 Kubelwagen. It is a very old model, from the 1960s.

I got this one used, it was in this condition when I got it.

The windshield support on the drivers side is broken.

The paint and decals are rough, but I am okay with that, it looks like a vehicle that has seen a lot of war.

Since these photos were taken I have repaired the windshield support but intend to keep it just like this otherwise.
